Dr Ellen J. Langer is Professor of Psychology at Harvard University, and many consider her to be the ‘mother of mindfulness’. 

Today on the show, we discuss: why life is so stressful right now, how to reframe the way you see adversity, why you don’t have to meditate to practice mindfulness, how to improve the way you speak to yourself, how your perception shapes the way you live your life, how to cultivate self-awareness and live a more mindful life, and much more.
