The power of your mindset

Mindset isn’t just in your head — it’s in your biology!

At the Integria Flourishing Symposium in Brisbane 16-17 August, I was reminded of Alia Crum’s fascinating research at Stanford.

Two groups were given the same milkshake. One was labeled: “Sensishake — fat free, guilt free, 104 calories.” The other: “Indulgence — decadence you deserve, 620 calories.”

Identical shakes. Totally different effects.

The “Indulgence” shake triggered the strongest fat-burning response in the body (measured by ghrelin levels).

Which goes to show - labels matter. But mindset matters more. What we believe changes how our body responds.
