This is a YouTube video titled "Mind's Impact on Body 🧠💪 #longevity #podcast #shorts #viralvideo" containing a conversation recorded in June 2025 between two speakers, including Dr. Jeffrey Gladden. They discuss the influence of the mind on physical and emotional health, focusing on the power of mental stories and intentional mindset practices.
I'm such a massive, massive believer in the power of the mind. Not only in terms of anything athletic, but also emotional and relational and admittedly everything in your body is driven by your mind. And the story, the stories that go on in between your ears day in and day out have a very direct impact on all the way down to the cellular level. And I, yeah, I've just been intentional about choices and practice around exercising the muscle between our ears.
Well, it sounds like you've been intentional about the stories that you actually choose to believe and the ones that you choose to tell yourself. And I think a lot of us or a lot of folks in general inherited stories. It was a story that their mom told them, their dad told them, their siblings told them, their teacher told them, their peers told them, whatever it was. then we kind of live in the shadow of those stories as opposed to realizing that we can create a better story or a different story.
