Simple Methods To Reduce Stress

This episode is brought to you by Paleovalley, Athletic Greens, and
InsideTracker. How do we want to show up, especially when things
get tough? This is a great question to ask ourselves as many of us
have the tendency to fall quickly and easily into patterns that
don’t serve us well, often causing more harm than good, both
physically and mentally. There are ways we can take back control of
our minds, however, so that we can let go of stress and enjoy what
most matters in life. In today’s episode, I talk with Dr. Elissa
Epel, Dr. Susan David, and Gabrielle Bernstein about the power of
the mind to create or reduce stress. Elissa Epel, PhD, is an
internationally renowned health psychologist who is focusing on how
to live well and thrive with existential stress, despite the
challenges we face personally and globally. She is a professor at
UCSF and the director of UCSF’s Aging, Metabolism, and Emotion
Center. She is a member of the National Academy of Medicine and
past president of the Academy of Behavioral Medicine and serves on
scientific advisory committees for the National Institutes of
Health. She is the coauthor of the New York Times bestseller The
Telomere Effect. Her latest book is The Stress Prescription: Seven
Days to More Joy and Ease. Susan David, PhD, is one of the world’s
leading management thinkers and an award-winning Harvard Medical
School psychologist. Her Wall Street Journal bestselling book,
Emotional Agility, describes the psychological skills critical to
thriving in times of complexity and change. Susan’s TED Talk on the
topic went viral, with over 1 million views in its first week of
release. Susan is the CEO of Evidence Based Psychology, on the
faculty at Harvard Medical School, a cofounder of the Institute of
Coaching (a Harvard Medical School/McLean affiliate), and on the
scientific advisory boards of Thrive Global and Virgin Pulse. 
Gabrielle Bernstein is the New York Times bestselling author of The
Universe Has Your Back and has written six additional bestsellers,
including Super Attractor, which launched in September 2019. She
was featured on Oprah’s Super Soul Sunday as a “next-generation
thought leader,” and the Oprah Winfrey Network chose Gabrielle to
be part of the “Super Soul 100,” a dynamic group of 100
trailblazers whose vision and life’s work are bringing a higher
level of consciousness to the world. This episode is brought to you
