One thing that has remained constant for the Baby Boomer Generation is our love for reading. From historical fiction to self-help books, there’s a wide variety of books that cater to the diverse interests of Baby Boomers. Books can serve as powerful tools for Growth, connection, and Entertainment. Lifelong learning through reading enhances our quality of life, keeps us mentally sharp, and helps us adapt to the new challenges of Aging.
Baby Boomers engage in a literary journey that celebrates our age and Wisdom when we pick up a book. Reading is a fantastic way to keep the brain engaged and active. Studies show that engaging with complex texts helps to improve memory and cognitive function, which is crucial as one ages. Losing oneself in a good book can also be a great Stress reliever. The immersive experience of reading can transport us away from daily stresses and provide a sense of calm and relaxation. Books help us learn new skills and how to keep up with Technology.
Books offer a world of possibilities for baby boomers, from expanding horizons to reconnecting with passions, managing health, and planning for the future. In every chapter and page, there’s potential for learning, growth, and enjoyment, proving that the act of reading remains one of the most accessible and transformative activities throughout one’s life.

I viewed about 15 minutes of each of the infamous debates. I don't take them too seriously because as we know, the way politicians get elected is not to tell us what they intend to do, but to tell us what they think we want to hear. So a political campaign gives us lots of shouting …

I viewed about 15 minutes of each of the infamous debates. I don't take them too seriously because as we know, the way politicians get elected is not to tell us what they intend to do, but to tell us what they think we want to hear. So a political campaign gives us lots of shouting and negative ads -- "He's a dictator!" "She's a liar!" "He's a racist!" "She's stupid!" -- but we don't get any serious discussion about important issues. So we read the tea leaves of invective and negative ads, and try to figure out what they really mean to do, and place our bet in the for…

With so many of us confined to limited movement during the coronavirus pandemic, I’ve been touching base (OK touching is a bad word) with colleagues, clients and close friends.

I hope this thought will be helpful to you as you figure out your “new normal.” Here it is from the vault. We all suffer the daily grind. Some days are better than others. For anyone in management or leadership, you need to take a pause to make some critical ass…

It’s no accident that we write about food so often here on SuperAging News.

So we took particular note of this story about the lack of nutrition training doctors receive in med school. It makes it all the more important for us to be informed and vigilant about our own diet.On television shows like “Grey’s Anatomy,” “The Resident” and “Chicago Med,” physicians seem to always have the right answer.But when it comes to nutrition and dietar…

If mindset makes all the difference in the success of our business, what adjustments might we have to make from this day forward? If you want big results, you have to learn to think big.

There is simply no trick, method or product that will successfully turn you into a successful entrepreneur if you continue to think small. You’ve got to push the limits, step outside your comfort zone, and reach farther. Here’s how you start: Think…

When we have a challenge in the body, we often try to fix that problem directly, rather than looking to correlates which could provide much needed support.Brain-Body ConnectionsWorking with the body explorations of Bonnie Bainbridge Cohen as she explores the utero relationship of different parts of the body, there is an acute awareness that we know so little about how the body truly functions. As we isolate each part and study it specifically, we lose connection with the relationships of organs, systems, fascia, ligaments, tendons, muscles, and whole-body movement.EyesightIn a series on CBC t…
