Mindfulness and Telomeres: Healing Trauma from Within

The emerging minds lab in Tel Aviv is dedicated to helping those who struggle and suffer to live better lives.
What if the key to a healthier, longer life lies within the tiny structures of our cells? This episode of 'All In The Mind' takes you on a fascinating journey into the world of telomeres and mindfulness. Host Lynne Malcolm uncovers how these chromosome end-caps, which act as stress sensors, play a crucial role in our health and well-being. You'll discover how lifestyle choices can influence the length of our telomeres, potentially slowing down the aging process.
But that’s not all—this episode also highlights the incredible work being done by the Emerging Minds Lab in Tel Aviv. They’re using mindfulness-based interventions to help trauma survivors, particularly East African refugees. Through mindfulness and compassion training, these individuals are finding new ways to cope with their past struggles. This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in the mind-body connection and the transformative power of mindfulness.
