The Secret To Longevity

Find Your Joy…

Scientists have proven that the secret to longevity is basically 3 factors and it breaks downs like this:

✅ 25% diet

✅ 25% exercise

✅ 50% happiness AKA Joy 

Which makes this latest study on how exercise makes you happier is important!! 

Researchers at Yale and Oxford say exercise is more important to your mental health than how much money you make.

Researchers collected data about the physical behavior and mental mood of more than 1.2 million Americans.

In the study people could choose from 75 types of physical activity — from lawn-mowing, childcare, and housework to weight lifting, cycling, and running or bicycling.

The people in the study were also asked about their income and physical activities. 

The researchers found that while those who exercised regularly tended to feel bad for 35 days a year, nonactive participants felt bad for 18 days MORE, on average.

In addition, the researchers found that physically active people feel just as good as those who don't do sports but who earn about $25,000 more a year. 

So, you'd have to earn a lot more to get the same joy-boosting effect that sport has.

According to the study, three to five training sessions, each lasting between 30 to 60 minutes, are ideal per week. 

Sports that involve socializing can have more of a positive effect on your mental health than others.

The scientists also noticed that certain sports that involve socializing - such as team sports - can have more of a positive effect on your mental health than others…Connection!

Despite the fact that neither cycling nor aerobics and fitness technically counts as team sports, these activities can also have a considerable positive effect on your mental health. 

This is one of the reasons I’m so excited to offer paths to longevity with connection & community through my online programs.
