This week on Dr Nichola's Second opinion we open our eyes to the fascinating science of mindfulness and its impact on aging.

Discover how your thoughts, emotions, and mindset can influence your biological age—right down to the cellular level. 

Dr. Nic explains how stress and positivity affect inflammation, telomeres, and cognitive health, and answers your questions on meditation, optimism, and mindful movement.

Whether you're a busy parent, a nature lover, or just curious about staying mentally sharp, this episode offers practical insights and science-backed tips to help you think young and stay young. 

If you're finding things difficult from a mental health point of view, don't suffer alone. You can find links to support services on the Hub of Hope or speak with your GP.
