The Power Of Attitude Over Health & Regeneration
Recent studies on telomeres (the chromosomal indicators of our longevity) prove that attitude – how we choose to perceive life and everything it casts our way – has a potent effect on our biochemistry, our ability to regenerate, and our health. For example, so-called “miracle healings” from deadly chronic diseases can often be traced to a shift in attitude rather than chemistry. Attitude is crucial when determining whether dramatic events – such as wars and natural disasters – leave a traumatic imprint on adults and their children and whether we grow stronger or weaker from such experiences.Attitude towards life’s stressors is vital in determining our resilience. The modern generation of overly guarded and safe children turn out to be physically and mentally weaker. The shift in attitude needs to be authentic. We can’t lie to ourselves. The body and the subconscious know whether our mindset is genuine or contrived. “Positive thinking,” a popular modern catchword, can also produce adverse effects when acted out or otherwise ingenuine, compromising our ability to learn and become stronger from misfortune.
