HOW TO LIVE A LONGER, RICHER LIFE BASED ON GOOD RELATIONSHIPS, SHARED VALUES AND TAKING OWNERSHIP OF THE YEARS AHEAD

You are more powerful than you think. You do have a choice as to whether you live longer or die sooner. It’s a proven fact that people who ACTIVELY SOCIALIZE are 3 times less likely to die of medical illness than those who don’t.

On May 18th Nicholas Boothman delivers his uplifting and inspiring message on the health and longevity benefits of connecting with other people to his target audience of adults of 20’s years and up.
Taped in front of a live audience, this Public Television special shows how to harness your natural-born talents to make trusting first impressions, establish immediate rapport, and within minutes be communicating like old friends.
“New research shows that the part of your brain that controls your fight or flight response also controls your grow or decay signals. Knowing how to send the right signals to your brain means you can increase your lifespan by decades. And it all depends on how often you connect with other people.”

Nicholas Boothman, best-selling author of 4 books including How to Make People Like You in 90 Seconds or Less, will give his audience a host of skills they can take away and use immediately. With over 2 million books in print in more than 20 languages, The New York Times calls him “Dale Carnegie for a rushed era.” The Economist Magazine calls him “truly inspirational,” and Good Morning America says, “His book is my bible.” His website is www.nicholasboothman.com

Connect and Live Longer is an emotional call to action for grown-ups to get out and take ownership of their lives by actively connecting with new people.
