Happiness and Health with Maya and Dr. Riz

July 11, 2021 by Dr. Scott Glassman Leave a Comment

You can listen to the conversation I had about health and happiness with Maya Acosta and Dr. Rizwan Bukhari, as part of their lifestyle medicine podcast Plant-Based DFW . We talked about my program A Happier You and how gratitude, laughter, and helping others can improve our physical and emotional well-being. These positive effects can include better sleep, more energy, a stronger immune system, lower levels of inflammation, and reductions in the body’s production of cortisol, a stress hormone. We also explored the importance of empathy and acceptance in sparking motivation for making healthy lifestyle changes, an essential part of a conversational style called Motivational Interviewing.

Maya and Dr. Riz, thank you for a great discussion!
