Abstract: How to maintain health and prolong life has always been a difficult subject explored by humans since the very beginning of documented history. As a new and promising academic discipline, Wisdom Studies will inevitably face this question. Because of the high admiration and hopes on wisdom, properly dealing with and help resolve this problem would be an unavoidable but daunting task for Wisdom Studies. It is therefore necessary for Wisdom Studies to establish a sub-discipline dedicated to life wisdom studies. This paper provides an overview on the future outlook and development strategies for Life Wisdom research.
