Humans are incredibly resilient. '''[[Elissa Epel]]''' has been studying stress resilience for 25 years from a health perspective. In particular, she has focused on what slows vs speeds biological aging, and wrote ''The Telomere Effect'', with Nobel laureate Dr. Elizabeth Blackburn.

Turning to our new era of global challenges requires a new mindset and communal coping. She will discuss ''The Stress Prescription'', her new book, including the different ways we can use stress science and contemplative wisdom to navigate our nervous system and transform our troubled planetary state.

* '''[[Elissa Epel]],''' Ph.D, is a Professor and Vice Chair in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at University of California, San Francisco.  She studies how chronic psychological stress accelerates biological aging, and how contemplative interventions, and positive stress interventions can promote stress and physiological resilience. She also studies the interconnections between emotions, eating, metabolism and weight and how mindfulness training impacts maternal and offspring health.  She is a member of the National Academy of Medicine, and has won many awards for her research. Epel co-wrote with Elizabeth Blackburn ''The Telomere Effect: The new science of living younger longer'',  a New York Times best seller and now in 30 languages. She is the author of the new book ''The Stress Prescription.''
