Harvard Psychology Prof: “STRESS Is The #1 Cause of DISEASE - Do THIS To HEAL!” | Dr. Ellen Langer

In this episode of The School of Greatness, Lewis Howes interviews Dr. Ellen Langer, a pioneer in the field of psychology, about her book "The Mindful Body: Thinking Our Way to Chronic Health." Dr. Langer discusses the concept of mind-body unity and how mindfulness, which she defines as actively noticing new things, can lead to improved health and well-being. She shares insights from her studies, including the counterclockwise study and the chambermaid study, to illustrate the power of mindset on physical health. Dr. Langer emphasizes the importance of embracing uncertainty, challenging absolutes, and making the moment matter, rather than striving for an elusive "right" decision. She also touches on themes of abundance, stress management, and the role of language in shaping our perceptions and experiences.
