Thrive in all of life’s stages
As life expectancy rises, how can we ensure we are making the most of the additional years gifted to us? I encourage you to take care of your holistic self. Your financial well-being is, of course, a priority. But we should discuss what it looks like to take care of your social, mental and physical health as well.
Did you know loneliness is the main reason people seek counseling support? Strong social connections not only combat loneliness and improve our mental health but can also lead to increased longevity, stronger immune systems and create a positive feedback loop, supporting overall health.1 Deepen your connection to your community by attending local events, taking classes or engaging with loved ones in new ways.
Our physical health matters just as much as our social, mental and financial health. We are greatly impacted by our sleep patterns, dietary lifestyle, exercise routine, and more. Living well means establishing a routine that makes it easy to take care of yourself. Did you know high cholesterol and blood sugar in your 30s may raise your risk for Alzheimer’s disease decades later in life?2
