Dr. Ellen Langer has been called the “mother of mindfulness” for her extensive research in the field of mindfulness – which she defines as the process of simply noticing new things. Through decades of research, Harvard psychology professor Dr. Langer has proved again and again that we have more control over our health and well-being than we ever realized, and it all begins with our thoughts. On this week’s Wellness Wednesday, Dr. Langer reminds us that we already have a potent tool for improving our health and we may not even know it.
