We’re joined by Dr. David Hamilton, a leading expert on the mind body connection, about the latest research on the power of our mindset, how a change in thinking can exert physiological effects within the body and how we can harness the mind to improve our wellbeing.
We talk about:
- Why the placebo effect is more than ‘just in the mind’
- How can we harness the power of our mindset to create positive neurological and physiological change
- The relationship between psychological stress and our health
- Why kindness is so key to our health
- How to use kindness practices to support our brain and heart health
