Our Youth's Perspective 2025: The Mind-Body Loop

Youth Scientific Council on Adolescence members Liam Garcia, Merlot Ghadoushi, and Jaleon Nocentelli talk with UCLA Psychology Professor Ted Robles about the "mind-body connection," and what the research says about how our developmental needs for caring relationships, contributing to others, belonging, and learning to navigate strong emotions can help us thrive emotionally as well as physically.

This is the first of three episodes of "Our Youth's Perspective 2025"—an annual youth-led miniseries of the Adaptivity podcast, hosted by Ron Dahl.
