Dr. Mario Martinez | MindBody Self: How Longevity Is Culturally Learned and the Causes of Health Are Inherited | Part 1 of 2

In these turbulent times, just about every solution you can think of has been put forth by someone, somewhere, as a way to calm the waters and live with more happiness and ease. But the fact is you cannot think your way to a better life. Change isn't something your mind can accomplish alone. It calls for mind and body to work together in a deeper unity than you may ever have imagined. Tonight, we'll learn - How our cultural beliefs affect the diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment of disease - The difference between growing older (which we all do) and "aging" by our culture's standards (which we can learn not to do) - What happens when we move "beyond the pale" of our tribe's expectations - How to navigate adversity using uncertainty as a guide - Biocognitive tools for a healthy life. Joine me in experiencing a paradigm shift in which the myths of doom are shattered by the science of hope, survival takes a back seat to meaning, and fear gives way to love.This is Part 1.
