May 30, 2023

Studies indicate that placebos can have a meaningful effect on numerous health conditions, emphasizing the significant role that our mindset plays in our health and well-being. On this episode of the Business Group on Health podcast, we’re joined by Dr. Kari Leibowitz to dive deep into the fascinating research demonstrating the power of mindset. During our conversation, we go beyond the placebo and “nocebo” effect to explore the evidence-based connections between mindset and health and well-being. Listeners will walk away with actionable insights on how to transform their own health by shifting their mindsets, how physicians can deliver improved results through an empathy-focused bedside manner, and even how we can enjoy winter more by shifting our perspective.
