{{ #2 Dark-chocolate-covered nuts (at least 70 percent cocoa) are almost a perfect food. They combine two remarkable nutrient-rich foods — nuts and cocoa — and are high in phenolics, minerals, healthy fats and fiber.

#5 I never force myself to sleep, and I don’t wind down in bed. I go to bed when I feel sleepy. This means my bedtime may vary slightly every night, but I fall asleep quickly. }}

I’ve been doing this since I retired 30 years ago. I go to sleep when I’m tired and get up when I’m well rested.

I didn’t go to bed on Sunday evening until 5:30 AM Monday morning and I slept until 1 PM in the afternoon. {{ LOL }}

I always laugh at headlines like this. They can always be pared down to 2: 1 - get your rear end off the couch and move and 2 - eat less processed garbage.

  1. Sleep well.
  2. Socialize with actual human beings.
  3. Get hearing aids if you are losing your hearing.
  4. Get a tune up! (i.e. if you have a health problem get it taken care of right away instead of letting it do more damage.)

Yeah. That list is way more diverse than just “move n eat right”.

  1. Have an SO with whom you can share intimate moments. Be intentional about intimacy.

  2. Meditate, intentionally de-stress.

  3. Intentionally don’t sweat the small stuff.

{ When approached with a difficult decision, we can use the “deathbed test” to help us determine which action to take. It consists of three questions: “On my deathbed, will I be mad I did it? Will I be sad I didn’t do it? Will it even matter?” The vast majority of our decisions never pass muster of mattering.}

  1. Intentionally breath. Deep, diaphragm belly breaths.

  2. Intentionally have routines and rituals. Especially that involve other humans.

  3. Intentionally be curious.

There are other tips, too. Read the article.
There’s even a toilet tip.

The tips all include some form of “be intentional” about some aspect of your life.

Social dancing is one of the best ways to accomplish many of these goals, and typically, social dancing is dying.
