I am a fan of Dr. Rangan Chatterjee. He has insights into your health and well-being that can bring changes into your life simply by considering other points of view

Dr Rangan Chatterjee works through podcasts, amongst other activities, by interviewing researchers and their work on aspects of health.

“If you’re thinking ‘I’m not very artistic, this probably isn’t for me’, then let me reassure you, it is. Daisy explains that we’re all born creative. As adults, we stop prioritising the arts. Schools and governments do the same. But if we can learn to treat arts engagement as the fifth pillar of health – and a joy not a pressure – the rewards will out.”  Dr. Chatterjee.

Today, he is interviewing Professor Daisy Fancourt.
