Ryan says research shows that being kind and generous can add years to your life, probably because committing an act of kindness -- or even thinking a kind thought -- is may trigger the release of stress-busting, happy-making hormones that combat the potentially damaging hormones your anxiety and fear activate. Ryan mentions the "helper's high," a rush of feel-good endorphins induced by doing unto others, and says those hormones may help keep you healthy. (For the record, Ryan's not a doctor, and I wasn't able to find published studies to support these claims. But the general principles are in keeping with existing research about stress hormones and endorphins.)
