In this episode, my guest is Elissa Epel, Ph.D., professor and vice chair of the department of psychiatry at the University of California San Francisco (UCSF) and the author of a new book entitled “The Stress Prescription.” We discuss her work showing how stress impacts mood, eating behavior, mental health, physical health, and aging. She explains stress intervention tools using “top-down” techniques (e.g., radical acceptance, mindfulness, reframing), body-based methods (e.g., breathwork) including the Wim Hof Method, exercise, meditation, body scans, and environmental shifts proven to help people cease unhealthy rumination patterns. We discuss how stress can positively impact psychology and sense of purpose, how stress affects cellular aging, how our narratives of stressful events impact our mood and biology, and how to effectively reframe stress. She explains science-based techniques to break stress-induced cycles of craving and overeating and thereby improve insulin sensitivity and metabolic health. Dr. Epel provides a wide range of tools shown to be effective in reducing stress and improving various aspects of our health. #HubermanLab Thank you to our sponsors AG1 (Athletic Greens): Thesis: Eight Sleep: HVMN: InsideTracker: Supplements from Momentous Social & Website Instagram: Twitter: Facebook: LinkedIn: Website: Newsletter: Dr. Elissa Epel UCSF profile: Personal website: Lab Website (Aging, Metabolism & Emotion Center): Twitter: Instagram: LinkedIn: Articles The geroscience agenda: Toxic stress, hormetic stress, and the rate of aging: THE IMPACT OF MEANINGFUL VOLUNTEER ENGAGEMENT IN AGING ADULTS: THE BALTIMORE EXPERIENCE CORPS TRIAL: Potential role for adult neurogenesis in the encoding of time in new memories: The mindful moms training: development of a mindfulness-based intervention to reduce stress and overeating during pregnancy: Can Meditation Slow Rate of Cellular Aging?
