In 1938, the Harvard Study of Adult Development was created to understand the secret to a long and happy life. While the study is still going on today, the findings uncovered that the quality of our relationships correlates directly to our longevity and happiness, and has provided insight into what we can do differently to live a longer and more fulfilling life.
