A Yale University researcher found that people who have positive views about aging live, on average, 7 ½ years longer than those who don’t.
How does that happen? How could that be?
A positive view of aging might be something like believing that growth is possible at any age versus a negative view of aging that involves inevitable decline. Which one is true? They’re both true.
Belief itself is not what changes your biology. It’s just the first step.
What happens to somebody when they believe growth is possible at any age versus somebody else who says, “Aging involves inevitable decline”?
How does the person who says, “I’m having a senior moment” behave? They behave old.
So, it turns out it’s not magic. Your beliefs become your biology by way of behavior. (CNN)
