  1. As someone who recently crossed into my sixth decade, I agree wholeheartedly and am grateful to a family physician who in my 30s counseled me to begin thinking of nutrition and fitness as the most affordable health insurance. I wonder how many financial planners talk about this important topic with younger clients versus waiting until they are much older.

  2. Well written and well received. Five years ago, I cut meat out of my diet; initially an environmental decision, it is also a conscious decision for better health; Yoga of mobility, light weight work and a minimum of 2 hours outside in our home gardens daily. Along the physical aspects, mental aspects such as meditation and prayer also help to knock down the noise of the world and are helpful to decrease stress. Thanks for the article, good stuff!

  3. Very well stated. I cut out processed sugars in my young 20s. I eat healthy and exercise. Walk to and from work. But now, 61, I realize I want to decrease stress I heap upon myself by taking on too many community-building projects over and above my full time job, which tends to result in working 7 days per week without vacations. Vacations bore me, I love working, but reducing my self-initiated work load will give me to time to relax, reflect, plan, focus on priorities, and might increase the impact I can have on the world by focusing on my strengths and reducing my stress to ensure long-term health.
