In his medical training, Dr. Mort Orman was taught all about the human body, the heart, liver, stomach, etcetera. But not enough about the human being to help him avoid his own issues with stress.  It wasn’t until he realized that all his efforts to manage stress had him chasing the wrong goal that he was able to break free of the impact of stress on his health and relationships - In fact, once he discovered that by addressing the problems that were creating stress, he then had none left to “manage”!  Dr. Orman is an Internal Medicine physician, a former corporate health and wellness executive, and a 40-year stress elimination expert who now helps his clients resolve the root issues so they can avoid feeling the impact of stress. In this episode we discuss: Ways that medical students are trained to experience stress The origin of “stress” as a concept by Hans Selye Why managing stress is the wrong goal The true sources of stress How COVID highlighted our society’s struggle with stress Dr. Orman hosts a weekly talk, “3 Big Lies About Stress” to help you discover how it’s impacting your health, your business and your life.
