We see many people living up to 80 or even 100. So what is the secret to a longer, happier and healthier life? Studies show that 3 things determine life expectancy: genetics, environment and our lifestyle. While we have no control over our genes, we can control our environment and lifestyle and see how that makes a huge difference to help us live better in our daily lives. 

Here are 10 ways you can adopt to live better and longer:

Control stress

Long-term stress experienced every day can take its toll on our health. Chronic stress ages us faster. Therefore, it is essential to manage this silent killer.

Manage your blood pressure

Hypertension or high blood pressure can place us at increased risk for a heart attack and other types of vascular disease. Increased water pressure can burst a pipe. Similarly, increased blood pressure can harden our arteries causing a series of complications. We can keep blood pressure under control by a balanced diet, regular exercise and a low-salt diet.

Don't smoke

This warning cannot be repeated enough. Smoking causes significant heart and lung damage. What’s more, it speeds up the aging process causing significant damage to skin. It not only harms us but the other passive smokers around us as well. Quit. Keep trying until you do.

Get your sleep

Not sleeping enough has a profound effect on overall health. Sleep is also crucial to maintaining a healthy memory, especially as we get older. Research has now revealed that sleep helps our brain to register and embed all our learnings during the day. Moreover, lack of adequate sleep can increase blood pressure, bring on depression and shorten life in the long run. Therefore, it is important to ensure at least seven to eight hours of sleep every night.

Get good nutrition

The wise option is to have a balanced diet that is both high on taste and nutrition. Eat the foods you love but in small portions. Plan a varied diet that includes plenty of vegetables and fruits. Don’t forget to include fatty fish and lean meats too. Nuts also offer a basket of benefits. Also try something healthy and new once in a while.

Get good exercise

Your muscles and bones need exercise to keep them young and flexible. It is important to choose an activity you enjoy be it tennis, cricket, the treadmill or just walking in the park. What’s not negotiable is regularity. Exercise everyday.

Exercise your brain

Your brain defines who you are. It gives you the ability to appreciate life in all its perspectives and controls your emotional and intellectual responses to the stimuli around you. So it is only imperative that your brain must be kept alive and not be allowed to rest idle because a dull brain makes for dull living. And the best way to keep your brain active is to use it. Learn something new to challenge it. Seek new experiences. Keep reaping the rewards of being a life-long student.

Stay positive

Positivity has a direct effect on aging and health. As the saying goes, “The me I see, is the me I’ll be.” If you view yourself as old and failing, you will probably carry yourself that way. Your life will be the way you choose to live it. A positive attitude helps you tackle circumstances better, decreasing stress and lengthening your life, helping you look and feel healthy. 

Maintain close relationships

Two is always better than one. Loneliness and isolation can be bad for our health. When you lose loved ones, instead of secluding yourself, go out into the world. Make new friends, find a new partner, take a new class, volunteer for a new cause – be with people because companionship helps people live longer and better.

Be spiritual

As Zen philosophy tells us, “It is the silence between the notes that makes the music.” Amidst the hectic routines and pleasures of daily life, our mind also needs moments of introspective peace. The power of prayer, meditation or just peaceful silence helps to bring calm, reflection and clarity into our busy lives. 

So, what are you doing to live longer?
