18 - Fitness, Aging & Quality of Life

Age gracefully? 

You're only as young as you feel?

If you ain't got your health, you ain't got nothing. 

I ain't no spring chicken anymore.

These are not just axioms, but solid beliefs. But why? Why do we believe that as we age, we are expected to get ill, lose function and competence, and become frail? Where and when did we learn to connect "aging" with deterioration? Why do we limit our full, physical potential the older we get?

In this podcast, we discuss:

• the role fitness plays in one's quality of life
• the mindset behind growing old" vs "aging"
• the common denominators among those reporting high life satisfaction
• the 3 things we need to thrive
• why we need rituals
• the importance of feeling valued and having a life purpose
