A study on Biological Psychiatry found that aging is successfully linked with a choice to live happy and productive life. Any one who limits his vision to memories of yesterday is already dead - Lillie Langtry.
Is it important to know that happiness stems from heart and a cheerful heart is linked to cheerful mind and long lasting body?
Inviting to share your own experiences in this context.
Yes, probability is higher. More than 80% people dies where direct or indirect causes of death is stress. If a person is happy then stress level is less and consequently mortality risk is low,assuming the individual to be normal healthy without comorbidity.
Yes, this article discusses this topic.

Dear Itishree Padhi,
Yes, I believe in the results of research in the field of biological psychiatry concerning the relationship between these issues, regarding the analysis of the correlation between the state of the psyche and the state of physical health of the body. Take care of your mental health. You should take care of your well-being. You should live in such a way to have a good mood and a good, healthy state of mind, because there are certain correlations between the state of physical and mental health. In my opinion, these are mutual relations. So people who lead a specific, balanced lifestyle, stress less, take care of their mental health, are also physically healthier and thus can live longer. This also works the other way around. People who care about the good health of their body, lead a healthy lifestyle, eat healthy, play sports or exercise, then also feel better and are mentally healthier. Currently conducted research on this issue and research in the field of biological psychiatry confirm theses that have been formulated in this area since antiquity. Thanks to modern science enriched with new technologies and research methods, we can confirm theories about which we could only guess before.
Best wishes,
Dariusz Prokopowicz

Do Happy People Really Live Longer?

Maybe! Some studies reported that people with greater sense of optimism and happiness have a greater chance to live healthier and longer.
Yes, I think this is true because many heart attacks are the result of sadness or upset, but a person who has hope in life easily overcomes those obstacles and sad situations.
I think yes, because people live happy mostly away from stress condition exposure or they are don't care about stress factors that mainly causing disease leading to death.
Looking back in my family, it seems that while one strand represented people who lived into their 80s while another died in their early 70s, with coronary heart disease. As there does not seem to be much difference, as far as I can remember, regarding their happiness or stress, I think it can depend on genetic factors. I realise that factors including exercise, obesity or smoking can play a part, but I don't think they did in our case.
Indeed! It’s fact that happy people live longer. I agree with all the co-authors.
Yes. Happiness definitely means less stress. It seems comedians for example live exceptionally long lives. It could be attributed to jokes and laughter...happiness.
