Thinking Our Way to Health, with Ellen Langer and Sean Fargo

can we improve our health simply by changing our minds? Dr. Ellen Langer says it’s not only possible, but that the mind has far greater influence on our bodies than we currently imagine.

Her belief that we can think our way to better health is rooted in over 40 years of mindfulness research. With each of her 13 books, Ellen Langer has persuaded more and more people that mindfulness makes our health, and everything in our lives, better.

In this episode, Sean Fargo speaks with Dr. Langer about the research behind her most recent book, The Mindful Body: Thinking Our Way to Chronic Health. Ellen shares why mindfulness is key for both preventing and healing serious chronic illness.
