Often think about death does not always mean being depressed. This trend could also indicate that someone has a chance to live long, as revealed in several studies over the years.

One study revealed that it had published in the journal Personality and Social Psychology Review.

According to this study, a person tends to be a long and healthy when awake often reflect or think about death.

The reason is quite simple, ie, when contemplating the death of the brain will subconsciously appreciate life more.

As a result, the brain will automatically be moved to draw up specific plans that aim to avoid the coming of death.

"This process can motivate us to be more diligent exercise, reduce unhealthy food, use a sunscreen when sunbathing, wear a seat belt when driving and driving with more caution," said Prof. Kenneth Vail of the University of Missoury who was quoted as saying penleitian of MensHealth.com, Thursday (05/03/2012).

Not only does it make one's lifestyle to become healthier, more often thought about death also makes people more likely to do positive things. Not only his own mental health benefits, this behavior also benefit others.

This is evident in the people who live near the cemetery. The closer to the funeral, the more often these people even think about death, incidentally, for example, when a sudden looking at a row of tombstones in addition to his house.

A study published in Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin in 2008 to prove the theory.

The people who every day walk through the cemetery are usually more generous and helpful than those living far from the cemetery.
