I am 55 And Joining The Late 50’s But My Mind Stopped Aging Ten Years Ago

I have been more actively learning a variety of things after my voluntary retirement from a teaching job. I feel my mind is sharper than what it was when I was in my 30’s and 40’s.

One of the reasons why my brain stopped aging is because I have been actively engaging it in challenging exercises that are fun to do and help me keep me fit.

The other day I watched a video on Youtube that highly motivated me. I would like to share it with you and I am sure you will find it interesting.

Discover Youth (Long Version)
I took a Young Brain Quiz to check myself out and was very happy to know I am on the right track.The site where I took the quiz also offers a free video course titled 8 Weeks to A Younger YouThe eight videos are on the following topics:- Week 1: Build a Core- Week 2: Start Smart, Start Slow

- Week 3 : Build Momentum

- Week 4: Gain Control

- Week 5: Look Inward

- Week 6: Discover You

- Weeks 7 & 8: Nourish Your Body and Brain

All the videos are worth watching and the entire course brings about a change in attitude.

I have placed an order for their book In Full Bloom: A Brain Education Guide for Successful Aging

Here is one of the amazon reviews about the book:

“This book does a big favor for those of us who know we are aging! The philosophy and approach presented respects our aging brain, and in a comfortable, easy-to-read style tells us on how our brains should continue to work for us and make us perform at our best. The east and west influence of the exercises presented makes this approach special. I have personally practiced almost all the exercises described here and found many of them fun. These exercises speak to us and tell us that the sky is the limit!They have trully fostered by intuitive side. What could be more rewarding!” –Mariam R. Chacko, M.D., Baylor College of Medicine, Houston, TX

Considering the quality of the free information available on the site, I think, the book will provide a lot of targeted exercises and much more depth regarding the role of the brain in aging.
