TIPS FOR AGING

It’s important to keep your mind young as we age. I endorse the following recommendations from the National Institute of Health:

• Don't make rash decisions.

• Give yourself time to think.

• Write things down.

• Memory can be fallible for people of any age.

• Structure your day and your surroundings to help you remember things.

• Imagine a future action in as much detail as you can.

• Keep your brain active with activities that require mental effort, such as reading.

• Stay physically active.
