In this episode, I’m joined by Dr. Ellen Langer, Harvard professor, renowned psychologist, and bestselling author of The Mindful Body and 12 other books. Known as the “mother of mindfulness” and the “mother of positive psychology,” Dr. Langer was the first woman to earn tenure in psychology at Harvard.
A Guggenheim Fellowship recipient and celebrated social psychologist, her groundbreaking research has been featured in The New York Times Magazine’s Year in Ideas issue. Beyond academia, she is also an accomplished gallery-exhibiting painter.
