Thinking Our Way to Chronic Health With Dr. Ellen Langer
Manage episode 443190384 series 3515979
Imagine being chronically healthy. It's possible. This week, I'm sitting down with Dr. Ellen Langer who explains how we can get there. As an esteemed Harvard professor, the mother of mindfulness, and world renowned researcher, she shares 45 years of data that proves we can think our way to chronic health. In this fascinating conversation, we talk about mind-body unity, reforming our healthcare system with mindfulness, happiness, mindful contagion, living lives of possibility, and her newest book, The Mindful Body: Thinking Our Way To Chronic Health.
Dr. Langer has been on the forefront of mindfulness research for nearly five decades. She has taught great minds like Adam Grant and so many others at Harvard University where she was the first woman to be tenured in Psychology.
Her newest book is a culmination of the groundbreaking research she has led in The Langer Lab. Every page is filled with science backed, thought provoking guidance for living happier, healthier lives, and realizing untold possibility by simply changing how we think.
Episode quote: "With a little effort, our lives can be meaningfully changed."
