Have you ever worried about you death if not then start worrying because one the research says that Thinking about death can improve health and help people re-prioritize their goals and values, a new study revealed.

Researchers said that even subconscious thoughts about death, like walking by a cemetery, could prompt people to make positive changes and help others.
