Why do we start every health kick with the best intentions, only to watch the old patterns quietly return by week six? Dr. Lloyd Glauberman, a clinical psychologist with over four decades of experience and creator of the Lifestyle Intelligence (LQ) framework, offers a striking reframe: we weren't born lacking the intelligence to be healthy — we've been slowly hypnotized out of it.In this conversation, Lloyd explains how the patterns we absorb from family, culture, and screens override the instincts we had as infants, when we ate when hungry, slept when tired, and moved when our bodies called for it. He shares why lasting change isn't a discipline problem but an intelligence problem, why "appropriate amounts of failure" are essential to transformation, and how paying attention to what our bodies have been telling us all along may be the key to getting it back.At seventy, Lloyd brings something rare: the lived experience of doing it wrong, then doing it right. It's a hopeful reminder that it's never too late, and that you already know more than you think.Connect with Dr. Lloyd Glauberman:🌐 Website: https://lifestyleintelligencelq.com/💓 Train your heart and brain to work together with HeartMath: https://www.heartmath.com/resilientLearn more by visiting: https://www.thebodylanguagetraininginstitute.com/Take action and strengthen your mind with The Resilient Mind Journal.
