Since 1986, University of Kentucky scientist David Snowdon has been
studying 678 nuns hoping to discover secrets of the brain. In
particular, what happensto the brain as we age. His findings, known as
the Nun Study , have shedsome light on how to livea mentally active
life wellinto old age. One of his findings is that a positiveemotional
state at an early age might help ward off disease and even prolong
life. In fact, there is a growing body of literature that shows
acorrelation between a person's attitude and their physical health,
mental health, and longevity.
