The podcast "How to Age Smartly" shares practical tips for staying healthy and happy as we grow older. It covers ways to look after our physical health, mental well-being, and social connections, including keeping a positive outlook, staying close with friends and family, and making healthy lifestyle choices. It also acknowledges the difficulties of aging, like chronic illness and mental health challenges.
One section offers five tips for keeping the brain sharp: exercise, mental activities, socializing, good nutrition, and sleep. Another section discusses how to prepare for “aging in place”—living comfortably and safely at home as we age. It includes advice on health, finances, transportation, safety, community, and relationships to help ensure a fulfilling life in the years ahead.
