Summary

In this new episode Steven sits down with the author and alternative-medicine pioneer Deepak Chopra.

Deepak is an expert in the field of mind-body healing and has written over 90 books on the subject. He has also been named as one of Time magazine’s 100 most influential people in the world.

After studying medicine in India, Deepak moved to America to begin his medical career. However he soon became disillusioned with Western medicine and its reliance on prescription drugs, and was inspired to become involved with holistic medicine and the Transcendental Meditation movement. He is the founder the Chopra Center for Wellbeing, which focuses upon the importance of mental, emotional and spiritual well-being to the overall health of the individual.

In this conversation Deepak and Steven discuss topics, such as:

How emotions affect the physical body
The key areas of suffering in our life
How to be successful no matter what
The greatest emotion humans posses
Why depression is the real pandemic affecting modern society
