Retirement has arrived- new blog.
Be happy and joyful in retirement.
Live your life your way.
A Bit About Me
Everyone needs the tools for happiness and finding joy. I have recently retired and been thinking about how I want to use my time to be happy and productive. This is what I call finding joy.
I have learned that being healthy is the foundation to being happy, purposeful and joyful.
I am a 67 year old woman, divorced in 2001 and worked in finance for corporate America for most my career. My degree is in Psychology and I knew before I retired that I wanted to explore the healthy inputs with our thoughts to create a new exciting life.

Foundation of Health, Happiness, and Wellbeing
Nutritious Food
This is where we learn to eat healthy and it does not have to mean restriction of nutritious foods. No need to be hungry. you can have wonderfully satisfying foods like butter, cheese and bacon. You will not be hungry.
Movement
As humans, we are meant to move frequently throughout the day. even if you do not walk now, just start slowly and build on it. After walking is established, we will start some body movement and resistance training to stay strong.
Sleep
Sleep is very important to health. Strive for 8 hours a night. if you are not sleeping well now or are sleep deprived, sleep will improve as your health improves.
Mindfulness
Mindfulness is the magic that will give you the awareness which will allow you to change your life. This is a topic we need to be dig deep to unlock the answers that are within us. This is truly a game changer.
Life is like a kaleidoscope-a slight change, and all patterns alter.
