Description
This week at Seed we are running a week-long health campaign on the topic of longevity. In our modern age, we are living longer than ever before. But as we know, it’s not just about living longer – it’s about living well. So, this week we are speaking to our amazing experts at Seed to discover how we can live better for longer.

In her clinic, Jo is seeing stress as the number one issue among her patients.we are focussing on the RELAX pillar, looking at the impact of stress on our bodies, minds and overall health and longevity.

So unless we change our lifestyles and go back in time, our external stressors related to lifestyle are not really going to change. So, the questions is, how can we increase our resistance to stress so we can cope?
