And we will do sometimes, especially when we're tired or overworked or stressed, we will fall back to old patterns and that's okay.
As long as you acknowledge it, take responsibility and then try again.
That's right.
So yeah, I think really, really great examples.
I want to talk about how belief relates to health.
Before we do that, could you just give us this framework of these three powers of belief that I don't think we've touched on them, but probably not heard it as a kind of arching framework.
So perhaps give us that.
Sure.
And then let's dive deep into health.
Yeah.
And I guess in the power of attention, we've already spoken about this idea that believing is seeing.
You mentioned the hypnosedation and the chap who did the operation without any anesthetic.
We touched on relationships and choose the perspective that kind of helps you, I guess.
The second one was the power of anticipation that you just mentioned.
And in this section in the book, there was quite a lot of stuff around health, which I found really, really interesting.
I particularly like the chapter called Living Longer, Stronger and Smarter, how your beliefs become your biology.
And you made the case that our thoughts about aging might have more impact on the aging process
than things like diet, exercise, and sleep.
So can you speak to that topic a little bit?
And it's very damaging, isn't it?
