119. Best Of: How to Embrace the Benefits of Stress

“Stress is natural,” says Alia Crum, an assistant professor of psychology at Stanford. “Stress is inevitable when you’re living a life that’s connected with things you care about. And learning how to embrace it, learning how to work with it is really what helps us thrive and grow and perform at our highest level.”
In this episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart (www.gsb.stanford.edu/business..., lecturer and podcast host Matt Abrahams talks with Crum (profiles.stanford.edu/alia-crum) about her work as the principal investigator at the Stanford Mind & Body Lab (mbl.stanford.edu/), where she is studying how people can benefit from stress. “There’s a whole side of stress that shows that it can have enhancing qualities on our cognitive functioning, our physical health, and on how we behave and interact with others,” she says.

I love these podcasts

[@user-rg1un8ib8f]

I thank you for your releases. It is very valuable information. My level of English does not allow me only to listen to you, I read Russian subtitles, but somehow the information is incredibly useful. I am sure I will be able to use it in my profession and personal life. Thank you. Your work confirms your thought in the middle of the issue - I don't need to be forced or coerced to give you a like or comment, I need to create an environment where I want to do it myself, which I did!
