I have to believe that you’ve heard the one about the patient who shows up at the doctor’s office. The doctor walks into the exam room and asks what has brought the patient in today. Patient says, “Doc, it hurts when I do this.” …Pause… The doctor replies, “Well, don’t do that.” Case closed. It seems that in many cases ..read more

April 22 is Earth Day, a date that has brought together activists and celebrants since its inception in 1970. The really nice synergy with people “of an age” is that you and we know to what the first days of the movement responded and what has improved since then. Rachel Carson’s book, Silent Spring, was first published in 1962 and ..read more

When I speak to some clients our conversation moves from their work lives and forward to their retirements now. Everyone has a different take on the progression from seeking the keys to success to now a concern for where they have placed or misplaced their car keys. Raise your hand if you’ve ever misplaced your car keys. And this can ..read more

A philosopher/theologian whom I regard quite highly talks about the first half and the second half of life. Life is not exactly divided into two equal halves, but it is divided into two very different task assignments if we look at the first versus the second parts.

But there has been one effect for people over 65 years of age or the disabled ..read more

Just coming off Super Bowl Sunday, it’s easy to talk about who could run faster, who could pass more accurately, kick farther and just plain who was in the best shape to work to the end of the game – and what amounted to overtime. But this post is not about football or about who Taylor Swift was rooting for…shame ..read more

There is much talk recently about “grade inflation” which rather diminishes the formerly exclusive appeal of a report card with A’s on it…or better yet, straight A’s. But this is a metaphorical discussion about the vitamins your body needs and what your body may actually be getting. So, we can thank Vitamin A for helping our immune systems and our ..read more

Alzheimer’s Disease affects nearly six million people in the United States according to estimates from the CDC, and that makes it the most common of the dementias. And the number is expected to more than double by 2060. Alzheimer’s is not a random condition affecting all people equally, and there are even steps each us can take to lower the ..read more

It’s not a magic pill or a quick transformation, but it’s not difficult either. The “it” is greater longevity, and rule number one: you cannot do it while sitting. But you don’t have to take a polar plunge either. If you think of your body as a complex ecosystem, it makes sense that it will not be just one thing ..read more

How many New Year’s Resolutions have you broken in your life? Be honest. Now ask yourself how many of those broken resolutions were your own creation and how many were resolutions other people made or suggested? In hindsight does it seem that some of those resolutions were doomed from the start? (Spoiler Alert: Dry January) Or it simply may be ..read more
