Have you ever felt betrayed by your own body, or mystified about why it doesn't "work" the way you want it to despite all of your best efforts?  What if you had the innate power to manage parts of your own internal biology?   And what if it wasn't mystical or magical? 

Join me in a discussion with Parijat Deshpande as we discuss the mind-body connection, and how stress management can work "miracles" on your physical health - not just your mental health (spoiler alert: they are the same thing).

Her book: Pregnancy Brain:  A Mind-Body Approach to Stress Management During a High-Risk Pregnancy, is so good that I highlighted something on every single page (while saying "mmhmm!" and nodding to my highlighter like it was a good friend).   Even if you are not pregnant, or ever plan to be, this interview is a woo-woo-free portal into the world of mind-body healing.  Buckle up!
