• Growing older doesnt have to be negative! In
  fact, there are many positive activities and
  things you can do and practice that will help you
  stay optimistic and sharp-minded as you age.
• Learn something new every day Each day is a gift
  in itself and should be spent doing things we
  enjoy. There are so many ways to grow as a human
  and we can never have to stop learning. Try a new
  exercise class, attend an activity class you
  normally wouldnt, volunteer at a local community
  group, spend time trying to learn a new skill or
  trade. Your days will be fuller and brighter when
  
• you challenge yourself to learn and grow!

• Laugh A Lot Laughter truly is the best medicine.
  When you look back on your life, you can take
  pride and be grateful you made it this far! Find
  the humor in your life and learn to laugh at your
  experiences in the past and look forward to
  tomorrow. Each of us goes through the good, the
  bad and the ugly, and laughter  is always the
  best medicine. Try reading the morning comics or
  telling jokes to friends and see how much
  laughter really changes your perspective in an
  instant.

• Embrace Age It happens to us all and not one of
  us is excused! Though many of us would like to
  stay young forever, there is so much value and
  beauty in aging. The life experiences and journey
  youve been on is for a purpose, and our world
  would not go round if it werent for people of
  all ages and life stages. Embrace it!

• Stay Fit A Harvard study of over 1,600 older men
  and women found that adding light exercises to
  your routine, even if you didnt work out before,
  can make you over 25 percent less likely to
  become disabled. Though you probably already knew
  this, the reality is that just by doing simple
  exercises such as walking, aqua aerobics, chair
  exercises or light core workouts, you decrease
  the likelihood of getting injured. Plus, your
  attitude and outlook on daily life will become
  much happier due to the endorphins produced
  during this time!
• Give it a go!
