#1566 Thinking Yourself Sick - Harps

from The You Project Hosted by Craig Harper

I decided to record this podcast called in an attempt to unpack the very real and powerful (but largely unknown and undiscussed) relationship that exists between negative thinking and our body. It's been my experience, observation and research that chronic negative thinking might be (I say 'might') one of the leading (but undetected) drivers of (or psychological and physiological pathways to) physical dysfunction, disease and disaster. While it's pretty well established that thoughts have the power to heal, or at least positively influence health outcomes (I've interviewed several world-class experts on the topic of the placebo effect), what's not discussed so much is the potentially disastrous physical health outcomes of ongoing negative thinking (rumination, obsession, over-thinking, doom and gloom story-telling, self-loathing, hypothetical future problems). I'm of the opinion that greater knowledge, awareness and understanding about this issue is crucial, and if we can understand it, we can do something about it. Enjoy.
