Psychogenic Longevity: How Your Mindset Rewires Your Body with Dr. Srini Pillay

What if the most dangerous inflammation in your body actually starts in your mind ? In this special two-part episode, I’m joined by my longtime friend and collaborator Dr. Srini Pillay. Srini is a multi-talented Harvard‑trained psychiatrist, author, musician, and pioneer of psychogenic longevity, and he's here with us to unpack the hidden connection between stress, inflammation, and how you actually live your life . Dr. Srini also wrote a musical and we've written quite a few songs together which we hope to share soon. Srini has spent years at the cutting edge of neuroscience and human potential, asking a very simple but revolutionary question : Can changing the way we think about stress and possibility actually transform our bodies and even how we age? In this episode, you'll hear: How to become anti-fragile by using stress to heal instead of harm your body The real difference between self‑deprivation and self‑sabotage How harnessing the psychology of possibility can change the physical state of your body How to reclaim the magic of being human as AI rapidly reshapes our world In this special episode, you'll also hear a bit more about how you can join our collaborative projects, events, and retreats at Amrit Ocean Resort with Dr. Srini Pillay.
