A voluminous literature documents links between stressful life experiences and poorer mental, physiological, and physical health and well-being. However, only a small number of studies have sought to understand whether positive life experiences might show opposite links to health. We have begun a series of investigations that examine how the frequency of positive experiences in our daily lives, including experiences in the leisure, nature, social, productive activity, and physical domains, is linked to psychological, physiological, and physical well-being as we age. Our research documents that a greater frequency of positive experiences is linked to lower levels of multi-system physiological dysregulation and lower likelihood of mortality over time. We also recently documented that more frequent positive life experiences are associated with a slower rate of biological aging as assessed by the pace of methylation in our DNA. We have observed that the experience of the good life, as assessed by the frequency of positive experiences in our daily lives, varies by demographic factors, with those of lower socioeconomic status (SES) and minority racial status experiencing a lower frequency of such experiences. One encouraging finding is that associations between positive experience frequency and indicators of health appear to be stronger in those of lower SES, suggesting that the more disadvantaged may benefit more from experiences of the good life.
