75-year Harvard study identifies quality relationships as key to longer, happier life.

75-year-long Harvard Study of Adult Development led by psychiatrist Robert Waldinger reveals that quality relationships are key to a longer, happier life. People with strong social connections experience reduced stress and better health, as they are more likely to engage in healthier behaviors. Waldinger suggests exercising regularly, eating well, avoiding obesity, and abstaining from excessive alcohol or drug use for physical health, and investing in personal relationships, engaging in fulfilling activities, and pursuing a sense of purpose for overall well-being.
