  The world has changed so much. My education was poor, I lived on a council estate and went to poor schools. And yet I can sit here and listen to Dr Ellen, a professor of Harvard who turns the world into something new. Profound. Thank you Rich and Dr Ellen for being in the world at this time. Here’s to a time when there will be no vertical line and everyone will recognise that no one is better than anyone else.

  Dr Ellen is very likeable. &nbsp;I would imagine all of her students are forever positively changed having had her as a professor.

  I remember my sweet Grandmother always was saying stress is a first step to being sick!

  When I began my healthcare career as 13 yr old “candy striper, ” patients’ beds on 2nd Main were 2 to a room, 5 in the sunroom, 6 in the “ward,” and only 1 private room. We filled disposable ice water pitchers, delivered meal trays, fed those who could not manage self feeding, picked up meal trays. &nbsp;Beginning at 8pm, we gave nightly back rubs. Patients visited with one another. The hospital food service made soups, salads, and casseroles on site, not from a freezer or box.<br>After college, I worked at that hospital for 25 years. When we needed a pleasant focal point for patients to look at while they had blood drawn, we simply asked Frank Simek, the CEO, and he had a forest mural installed across the entire wall. I retired last fall, but if Dr. Langer builds a mindful hospital and or school, I am onboard in whatever way I can be useful.

  Wage slavery, the daily grind is the number one enemy of mindfulness. The entire system we live in is wired and dependent on keeping us mindless. Scarcity is a lie but it&apos;s artificially maintained by the same system.

  She’s exactly right about that. When my husband was fighting leukemia, he was always anxious about the next bone marrow biopsy that creates a lot of stress and anxiety in the body that’s trying to heal itself so making a patient wait five years to feel at peace with their medical status is extremely detrimental. I witnessed that firsthand.

  &quot;As long as you have a rich present you do not need the mementos from your past&quot; YES! Thank you!! I have always felt that way, but couldn&apos;t put it as eloquent!

  I am a female sociologist from Saudi Arabia. I am into the American School of Classical Thoughts and Dr. Langer is a school of thought itself. Highly appreciated your time to host Dr. Langer for such a discussion. Very pleasant personality and intelligent lady with a big imagination in social research. I look forward to seeing other episodes with Dr. Langer. &nbsp;She&apos;s an inspiration and an adorable one❤

  Overnight, i was able to look at a loss- and, now see it differently because of this talk. It took me 15 years. I&apos;ve found the piece of a puzzle i needed to move forward. This woman is remarkable, brilliant. My mother commanded, &quot;you better have fun!&quot; before she died. She lived to be 86, ten kids and looked amazing..
