Have you ever wondered why some people seem to age faster than others? Learn from renowned researcher Elissa Epel, Ph.D. on how chronic stress and your personal outlook relates to accelerated aging.
A leading expert on stress, well-being, and optimal aging, Dr. Epel co-authored the N.Y Times best-selling book The Telomere Effect with Nobel Prize winner Dr. Elizabeth Blackburn. Her groundbreaking work continues to be driven by a passion to translate decades of aging research into practical techniques for a healthier stress response.
While we can’t avoid stress, Dr. Epel believes there are science-based approaches to engage with chronic stress that can give us a sense of purpose, a more positive mindset and better energy.
Together, we'll discover:
- The science behind aging and its relationship to stress
- Important variations in stress response among different lifestyles, generations, and socioeconomic groups
- How to build and deepen your mind-body connection
- Holistic daily habits and healthy tools to prevent and manage toxic stress reactions

San Francisco, where she is Vice Chair of Psychology and directs the Aging Metabolism Emotions Center.
