How can a positive attitude transform the physical body?

Hi, Kim.

Thanks for your post today.

It's unclear why people who engage in positive thinking experience health benefits. One theory is that having a positive outlook enables you to cope better with stressful situations, which reduces the harmful health effects of stress on your body. It's also thought that positive and optimistic people tend to live healthier lifestyles — they get more physical activity, follow a healthier diet, and don't smoke or drink alcohol in excess.

I was reading an article over at Huff Post not too long ago on this very subject! I'll share it here for you.
