Am I applying the stress-is-enhancing mindset developed by Dr. Alia Crum correctly?
I have a question about the episode Dr. Alia Crum: Science of Mindsets for Health & Performance | Huberman Lab Podcast #56 and the clip Leveraging Stress. Should I welcome stress, not allowing it to overtake my thoughts, but giving it meaning and recognizing that my body releases cortisol for an important reason? For example, if I'm stressed because I didn't get a job, does it reflect my desire for a fulfilling life? Does this stress signal that I care about my goals and encourage me to take action to move forward?
