Choose a Good Attitude: Your Health will Thank You!

You have probably heard it before – your attitude can have a direct impact on your physical health. Do you believe it, though? Check out this compelling research and see for yourself!

In his article, “The Physical Benefits of Positive Emotions“, Mark Sisson claims  that “from a physiological standpoint, research has shown that positive emotions as varied as love, compassion, and gratitude encourage ‘harmonious’ heart rhythms,” and “even more abstract positive emotions like hope and curiosity offer protective benefits from diseases like high blood pressure and diabetes.” Read more on Sisson’s findings here!

Dr. Mercola explores the topic further by researching how to keep the brain healthy and prevent cognitive decline. Mercola begins by stating: “It was once thought that any brain function lost was irretrievable. Today, research into what’s referred to as “brain plasticity” has proven that this is not the case. On the contrary, your brain continues to make new neurons throughout life in response to mental activity.” Read more on Mercola’s findings here!
