Trying to keep balance! Physical - so I don't fall. Social - making an effort to spend time with others but savoring time alone., Intellectual - keep my mind challenged but not stressed. Service - contributing to my community but taking care of myself. Attention to exercise and sleep.

Hi Abigail, those sound like great ideas. Having the opportunity to write has been a significant plus for me, and I'm becoming increasingly curious every day.

In the form of a shameless plug for my latest book, The New Old, (and also because I believe these four things are key):

- Be the boss of your life

- Master your mindset

- Get good at change

- Connect!

Try to have a stress free life as much as possible. Do things you genuinely enjoy. Try new things- a cooking class, gardening class or join a book club. Keep active and enrich your mind.
