E156: David Robson on How Expectations Change Your Reality

On this week's episode of Life and Lessons, you’re going to hear a conversation I had with David Robson.

David is an award-winning science writer specialising in the extremes of the human brain, body and behaviour, and the author of the book The Expectation Effect.

In the next hour, you’re going to learn:

● The true power of our expectations, and why mindsets are often the biggest factor in determining the outcome of a situation

● How placebo trials can be just as effective as real medication in certain settings, and what that means for our health

● How you can use the expectation effect to better manage anxieties, stress, and even improve your level of fitness

● Why this science-backed approach offers real hope to those looking to better themselves
