• Digital worlds are, if you like, "ethereal", not tangible. Kapha is reduced, vata is increased.
• The high competitive pressure to survive in this world increases vata and pitta. Pressure generates heat and not for nothing we speak of burning out / burnout.

However, in recent years, groundbreaking findings in modern science have thrown this assumption into question. In 2009, Dr. Elizabeth Blackburn et al. was awarded the Nobel Prize for the discovery of the enzyme telomerase, which can halt and even reverse ageing processes in certain tissues. Since then, research in the field of gerontology has exploded. Almost every day, studies bring to light knowledge that can be read in the classics of Ayurveda more than 2,000 years ago.
