Simply put, Stress Kills.
And it does this by causing the telomeres in your DNA to shorten much faster than normal.
This is incredibly important, as telomeres protect your DNA, and researchers have found that the longer your telomeres are, the longer your life and health span are.
Unfortunately, stress (and its negative effects on telomeres and aging) are an unavoidable part of modern life.
Fortunately, it’s possible to reverse stress related reductions in telomere length and therefore life expectancy.
If you meditate for 12 minutes per day, you activate an enzyme called telomerase that lengthens the telomeres in your DNA and reverses stress related aging.
If you aren’t sure how to make meditation a part of your day, try headspace, a web site and app designed to make meditation simple and accessible.
