I was recently sent a podcast from an amazing person and dear friend. The interview was with Ellen Langer. She is new to me, but you may have already heard of her and read some of her books.
She is AMAZING, intelligent, so insightful, curious, candid, a researcher, professor at Harvard, and a painter. One of my favorite qualities, she does not speak in absolutes. In the podcast she is speaking about her most recent book, The Mindful Body, Thinking our way to Chronic Health.
The podcast is lengthy but well worth it! I have listened to it twice now. If you’re unable to carve out time for a long listen, or are not into podcasts, here is the link to her website. Her research lab, the Langer Lab explores topics from mindfulness, to TBI, addiction, aging, chronic pain, and methods to help manage the symptoms that people may experience with these. She touches on some of theses topics during the podcast, empowers us to engage in our health, as well as the organization and state of our educational system.
She is an incredible human, inspirational (not in a culty way or lifestyle guru way!) and I am in awe of her. Please enjoy the podcast, reading about her, enjoy your day, enjoy the eclipse.
