About this episode
Did you know that the people you hang out with can (and do) influence your physical, mental and emotional health? As the title suggests, this phenomenon is called Interpersonal Neurobiology and sometimes, Social Contagion. The people you spend time with can literally impact everything from your heart rate, respiration, nervous system, stress hormone production, gut biome, brain chemistry, immune system and appetite, to your cognitive function, emotional state, anxiety levels, decision making, confidence and self-esteem. With all that in mind, this episode is a conversation that's all about the people we ‘hang out with' and the impact (positive or negative) they have on us. Enjoy.
