4-19-22: Optimism increases life expectancy

I would love to hear from you, just send me text and let me know what you think of the podcast.A study published just a few years ago showed some amazing results about the benefits of living with optimism. First, people who are optimistic live longer, plain and simple. They are more resilient and are less affected by stressful situations, which reduces their risk of heart disease, depression and chronic illness. In an article published by NPR about the study quoted a clinical psychologist saying that optimism can be taught through therapy and can be useful in reducing depression and anxiety. So pause and think, are you an optimistic or pessimistic person? If you tend to fear the worst, then look to find ways in which you can look for the good in your life. Start making a choice to assume things will work out and work hard with that expectation. If you do that, you may find yourself living a long, happy life. Visit my website: saxinthemorning.com for merchandise and other links. Follow us on social media: Instagram: @saxinthemorning_podcastYouTube: subscribe and watch shorts here  .Remember, Sax in the Morning swag is now available on my Instagram site.
