What if we could significantly improve our physical health through our mind? Social psychologist Dr. Ellen Langer has seen it happen first hand in countless studies at Harvard University and beyond. Dr. Langer, known as the ‘mother of mindfulness,’ joins Ricki to discuss how reshaping our perspective day to day can help us get in better shape, strengthen our decision making, and even improve chronic health conditions.

Check out Dr. Langer’s most recent book, 'The Mindful Body: Thinking Our Way to Chronic Health': https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/705365/the-mindful-body-by-ellen-j-langer/
