How can we age well? Susan says it is in our hands. If we look after our lifestyle – we can age well and reduce the risk of dementia. Susan has dedicated her life to examining aging well since her mother got dementia. In The Power Decade she talks about the '3 Ms' - mindset, meals and movement', and in her coaching practice she talks about six pillars of better brain health - nutrition, exercise, sleep, stress, cognitive engagement and environment (social and built). We discuss these topics, from the myths around nutrition, to the myths around which exercise post menopausal women should do. Susan feels that managing stress is an essential life skill, and exercise is no longer an option. It is time to rediscover our creativity and find our tribe. This podcast is filled with brilliant advice on how to age well.
