In this episode of Wellness at the Speed of Light, we're joined by Dr. Jonathan Fisher, a Harvard-trained cardiologist, mindfulness facilitator, and wellness advocate. Dr. Fisher shares his powerful journey from battling burnout, anxiety, and depression as a practicing cardiologist to transforming his life through mindfulness, emotional healing, and resilience-building strategies.
Together, we explore how emotions like gratitude, compassion, optimism, and kindness aren't just "feel-good" feelings but have profound effects on our heart health, lowering blood pressure, improving heart rate variability, and reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease. Dr. Fisher dives deep into the science of emotional resilience, stress management, and how we can integrate positive psychology, mindfulness practices, and optimal health strategies to improve not only our physical and emotional well-being but also the way we connect with those around us, fostering stronger relationships and enhancing overall quality of life.
We also discuss practical tools for mastering emotional intelligence, building mental clarity, and cultivating a positive mindset that can help individuals and organizations thrive. Dr. Fisher shares insights into his work with leaders, teams, and healthcare professionals to reverse burnout and create cultures of connection and well-being.
Tune in for an enlightening conversation about the intersections of emotional and physical heart health, and discover how Dr. Fisher is helping others lead happier, healthier lives—one heart at a time. Whether you're interested in stress reduction, heart health, or building a more compassionate world, this episode has something valuable for you.
