Yahoo News posted recently of the world’s oldest person tips on living a long life. This person, named Misao Okawa, is expected to celebrate her 116th birthday on Wednesday, March 5th. According to Yahoo News Misao Okawa states that one will have a long life if one follows her advice, “Eat and sleep and you will live a long time. You have to learn to relax.”

My question is: With the quick and continuous rise of technology and information, is the term ‘relax’ even defined literally anymore? If we were to live to such age (which is highly likely), what would our advice be on living such long lives and how would it differ from that of Misao Okawa’s?
