Legacy of Wisdom-Dr. Herbert Benson-Lifestyle Elements

Question: If we have the opportunity to consciously choose a lifestyle for our aging years, what elements should we be paying attention to? Dr. Herbert Benson, one of the orignal researchers who showed that we can in fact use our rational faculties to affect body states, is interviewed about the kinds of considerations we could employ in looking at our aging lifestyles. Using his perspective on the "Relaxation Response", Dr. Benson clarifies the approach for using the practices of repetition and quieting the mind to elicit this powerful response.
