Contemporary Retirement

Retirement is changing. The type of retirement that their parents enjoyed is no longer enough for the baby boomer generation. Today’s retirees are younger, richer, fitter, healthier and better educated than previous generations of retirees. They also have much higher expectations. The aim of this blog is to help you get the vital, healthy, prosperous, productive and fulfilling retirement that you really want (and deserve).

Is your brain ready for bootcamp?

Gary Small, Professor of Psychiatry at the American UCLA Center on Aging, has designed a two-week memory bootcamp as an assault against the natural decline in memory than comes as a result of aging. You can read more about it in an article written by Phil Scott at http://www.aarp.org/learntech/wellbeing/staying_sharp_boot_camp.html and you can try out a week's worth of mental exercises from the bootcamp at http://assets.aarp.org/www.aarp.org_/articles/NRTA/docs/7DaysofMentalPushups2.pdf.
