And sure, a lot of potentially worrisome things can happen to our brains and bodies over time.
But there are plenty of reasons to embrace each passing year with not only acceptance but also delight.
One study sheds light on one of these delights.
The study looked at people ages 2574 over a 20-year period.
This could be the types of social roles that we fill as we age.
But as we age, our social roles and motivations change.
Older people talk about wanting to maximize and enjoy the time they have.
The study is still ongoing, so future reporting on COVID-19-era data might look very different.
In fact, holding a positive view of aging could increase your life byalmost a decade.
So if growing older is something you stress about, take this newfound research to heart.
These are thebest ones to naturally soothe stress and anxiousness.
It found daily stressors decrease with each passing decade between our 20s and 70s.
And whats more, our ability to manage and stay less affected by stress improves up until our mid-50s.
