Learning How To Be Old

50. Your Easy Aging Year with Hetty Hellriegel


Listen Later

Easy aging? Bring it on! Forget about aging successfully, positively, wisely, productively. They all sound rather difficult. Let's age the natural way, your way. At 75 I had an Easy Aging Year, and started 12 tiny lifestyle habits. I gained clarity, confidence and optimism about old age. So can you. Don't miss this episode if you think you might be old one day!

I'm the guest this time! My host Hetty Hellriegel asks me some personal questions. Why am I so fixated on the phenomenon of aging? How long do I expect to live? Why was my Boot Camp for the Bonus Years not a boot camp? What is an easy aging year and how can you have one yourself?

The effects of my easy aging year are with me still. I can still develop new habits to deal with the age-related changes that affect us all. I am alert to the good things about old age as well as the troubles that sneak up on you. For years I assumed my YEAY! programme was too geeky for most people, but now it's time to share it.
