I tell you what. Most of the longest lived people in the world attribute spirituality as TOP. Also, most eat some cooked food; have been through hardship, etc. Honestly, if we stress out super much about what we do; it detracts. Everyones different. Natural diet is best.

Stress sure is a strong factor. Weird that it lies in the perception of the world, in the mind. And has really almost nothing to do with real physical world, other than being the change between what the brain is made of (but then again the entire world we perceive is change between something... just as are we ourselves; nothing is standing still, everything is in constant, neverending flux - it's the necessity of existence). Second to diet really, I'd say, and physical exercise being the third.
I've "mastered" stress years ago, getting ever better at it since (and I'm 23...), even before finding out about diet. There's really no point stressing over anything... stress comes from not realizing you cannot change something to something you'd rather have, just have to accept, look into the future and future possibilities, and just move on. Dwelling on the past is, honestly, idiotic if there really is nothing you can do about it. The present and, most importantly, the future matters, not the past (might be some rare exceptions).
Just do what is life's core quality - move on.

I am hoping our efforts here will lead most of us to something better than this.
We'll all have a heck of a fraternity in our 120s to even 150s.

Thats what I am thinking. Rawpaleodieters routinely living up to a range of 100-150, depending on circumstances, with negligible old-age-related health-problems.

I have my doubts that such a stress free existence can be attained these days. Hidden pressures from society take their toll like an invisible enemy, just think about the things out of your control if you live in a major city - air pollution, noise pollution, toxic food and toxic people.
But then there are the things you can control - the feeling of helplessness you get by watching the people you love waste away in front of a flickering death box (I have a very low opinion of TV, haha). I've learned to let people go. Their life, their decisions.
This might sound super defensive, but I've found that you need to stand guard at the gates of your mind. I have hope because I see more and more people waking up and making huge changes in their lives. This forum is a perfect example of that.

You said it yourself.
Do not live in a major city.

In a life or death situation I saw it done. I met the lady herself.
She suffered a stroke.
Her son sought out a place where his mother could live, breath, recover.
He found it, she did recover.
They are now inn keepers.
At Jariel's Peak km 94 Marikina Infanta Road up in the mountains.
They sold their business and properties in the polluted city.
