How Your Mind Can Alter Your Health?
Let’s look at a fascinating study done by Scientists at Stanford University.
In that study, scientists looked at mortality data of 61,000 adults.
What they found is that people who thought that they weren’t doing much exercise as compared to their peers, died younger as compare to who thought they did more.
Most surprisingly, even when they did the same amount of exercise.
This study shows that perception of exercise is also essential, and it makes the difference of 71% in the mortality rate.
It will never mean that you should stop exercising, hell no.
Instead, when you exercise, focus on exercise physically as well as mentally.
