Can cultivating genuine kindness and compassion actually make/keep us physically healthier?
Stress-created/supported chronic inflammation is a stubborn low-level attack on our body, it causes significant wear-and-tear over time and is linked to many diseases (i.e., heart disease, diabetes, etc.) as well as some neuro-degenerative conditions.
