Learn how adjusting your thoughts can change your health¡ªfrom the ¡°mother of mindfulness¡± and first female tenured professor of psychology at Harvard.

¡°What matters more: mind or body? Filled with original research and thought-provoking insights, The Mindful Body shows that the two are not just connected but are actually one, opening us to vast potential for health and happiness.¡±¡ªDan Ariely, New York Times bestselling author of Predictably Irrational

Can changing your thoughts improve your health? We tend to live our lives as though our ailments¡ªour stiff knees or frayed nerves or diminished eyesight¡ªcan change only in one direction: for the worse. Award-winning social psychologist Ellen J. Langer¡¯s life¡¯s work proves the fault in this negative outlook as well as the healing power of its alternative: mindfulness¡ªthe process of active noticing where we are not bound by past experience or conventional wisdom.

In The Mindful Body, Dr. Langer unpacks her assumption-busting findings and outlines her bold new theory of mind-body unity, along the way clearly demonstrating how our thoughts and perspectives have the potential to profoundly shape our well-being. Whether it is hotel chambermaids who lost weight when they simply came to see that their work constituted exercise, or patients whose wounds healed faster in rooms with accelerated clocks, she shows how influential our thoughts are to the state of our bodies. Her work has likewise proven that discouraging health news can have negative effects. Learning you are prediabetic, for example¡ªeven if your blood sugar reading is only a fraction away from ¡°normal¡±¡ªmay actually play a part in the development of the disease.
