Friends are more than just companions; they're lifelines. In this episode, I explore the profound impact of friendships on our health and longevity. Did you know that having a strong circle of friends can make you 22% less likely to die over a decade? Studies even show that women with ten or more friends are four times more likely to survive breast cancer. It's incredible how friendships can influence everything from heart health to overall happiness. Join me as we dive into the science behind these findings and discover why nurturing our friendships is essential for a healthier, happier life. And don’t forget to check out The 10 Minute Mind course at moniquerhodes.com to learn how meditation can further enhance your well-being.

  • Good Morning Monique. I love you talking about the Blue Zones which I’ve read and studied as well. One clarification related to Loma Linda – They are Seventh Day Adventists not Mormons which you referenced them as today.

    • Yes! You’re right! I was trying to remember as I was speaking. Thank you for the clarification Cynthia! đź’•
