This week on the Pop Life Podcast neuroscientist and author Daniel J. Levitin stops by the “Pop Life” bar to discuss his latest book “Successful Aging: A Neuroscientist Explores the Power and Potential of Our Lives.” He looks at the science behind what we all can learn from those who age joyously, as well as how to adapt our culture to take full advantage of older people’s wisdom and experience. Throughout his exploration of what aging really means, using research from developmental neuroscience and the psychology of individual differences, Levitin reveals resilience strategies and practical, cognitive enhancing tricks everyone should do as they age.

Then Levitin joins the “Pop Life” panel, Paul Mason a.k.a. Fashion Santa and Juno nominee Jay Douglas, to talk about the future of aging, lying about their ages and how much of defying aging is mental.
