Live Well, Age Well

Thanks to advances in medicine and nutrition, people today are living 10-15 years longer than just a few decades ago. A longer life gives you more time to enjoy hobbies, spend time with loved ones, and make new memories. But healthy aging isn’t just about adding years to your life—it’s about how well you feel during those years. By taking care of your body and mind, you can stay active, strong, and ready to enjoy every stage of life.

Here are some simple habits that make a big difference:

• Sleep Well: 7–8 hours of sleep each night helps your body recover and keeps your memory sharp.
• Move More: Sitting too long can affect your heart, muscles, and mood. Stand up and move every 30–60 minutes.
• Strength Training: You don’t need a gym. Lifting soup cans or using resistance bands can help keep muscles and bones strong.
• Brain Work: If you read often, try painting. If you do puzzles, learn a new instrument. Changing activities builds new brain connections.
• Eat Superfoods: Blueberries are packed with antioxidants that help protect brain cells. Salmon is rich in omega-3s, which support heart health.
• Find Joy: Laughter, music, and hobbies lower stress and boost your mood.
