In this podcast I talk about how stress accelerates brain aging, causes gut permeability, depresses the immune system, and accelerates telomere attrition. Additionally, I discuss how meditation has been shown to buffer against these negative effects on the brain and body by decreasing rumination, increasing gamma wave production, neuroplasticity, brain volume, and telomerase activity.
