Sustained over time, stress can undermine health in serious and sometimes deadly ways. In this Forum event, expert participants will examine what we know about the effects of stress on health, including heart disease risk, and about the role social status plays in exacerbating or mitigating these effects. In addition, panelists will explore ways in which positive well-being, mindfulness, exercise and nutrition can contribute to a more resilient, healthier lifestyle. Presented in collaboration with The Huffington Post.
