Social Connection: The Cornerstone of Health

Better Relationships, Better Well-Being—It’s Science

Strong social connections can extend your lifespan as much as quitting smoking. Research shows that meaningful relationships reduce stress, improve mental health, and lower the risk of chronic disease. Longevity isn’t just about what you eat or how often you move, it’s also about the people you surround yourself with.

Socially active adults have a lower risk of cognitive decline and dementia. Engaging in conversations, sharing experiences, and staying connected strengthens neural pathways, keeping your brain sharp. Studies show that those with rich social lives have better memory, stronger problem-solving skills, and a reduced risk of Alzheimer’s disease.

At The Livelong Experience (March 28-29), you’ll learn from top longevity experts, and connect with 200 like-minded individuals who share your passion for health. The conversations you have here could change the way you think about aging. Until then, take the first step: start a meaningful conversation today. Small actions lead to lasting change.

A Longevity Conversation Starter Guide

We are wired for connection. Research shows that engaging conversations can boost emotional well-being, reduce stress, and even increase longevity. Try these conversation starters with your friends, family, or new acquaintances to deepen your social bonds:

• What’s one new habit you’ve adopted that has made you feel healthier and more energized?

• If you could ask a longevity expert one question, what would it be?

• What’s a small daily ritual that brings you joy?

• Who is someone that has had powerful impact on your health?

• What’s one thing you wish you had started doing for your health 10 years ago?

Want to take it one step further? Reach out to a friend you haven’t talked to in a long time just to check in. You’ll be glad you did, and so will they.
