325: Mindset is Medicine

Dr. Elizabeth Hughes shares how changing our mindsets can actually, physically help our bodies heal. A Stanford-trained physician with 25 years of clinical experience, Dr. Hughes now blends her scientific training with a holistic approach drawing from non-Western medicine. The result? Less illness rather than more medicine.

We talked about:

  • How we’re never too old to heal

  • Where skin cancer can show up later in life

  • The “Nocebo effect”

  • Relationships as medicine

  • The magic hormone that impacts cardiovascular health, the nervous system and more

  • What’s behind all 10 of the most common causes of death

  • How to build touchpoints of happy chemicals

  • What percentage of your body is going RIGHT rather than wrong

  • The socialized medicine mindset that can make a huge difference

  • Good news about your digestive tract

  • Busting a myth about what a doctors need to do to be successful

  • Elizabeth’s stories of self-sacrifice, which made me Haven (learn more about Havening on last week’s episode!) because I was small-t triggered

  • What a “soup of stress” is and how to get in touch with your own inner guidestone
