You will never guess what the most important aspect of longevity is! - Susan Pinker is a psychologist, author and social science columnist for The Wall Street Journal. She wrote The Village Effect: How Face-To-Face Contact Can Make Us Healthier, Happier and Smarter, combines narrative nonfiction with science reporting to explore how our social bonds, face-to-face contact, and networks affect our thinking, learning, happiness, resilience and longevity. This short video is extracted from her ted talk about "The secret to living longer may be your social life", which we strongly recommend. Her study shows that the most important aspect of longevity is not so much about what we already know influences, things like healthy lifestyle, nutrition, smoking, fitness but on Social Integration. Going further on the topic, we could say that emotions from positive social interactions plays the most important role in giving people a reason to live. The "Why" as Simon Sinek would say.
