Zestful Aging

Have you ever considered hiking in Europe but think of hiking as too strenuous? Well, it doesn't have to be. Cassandra Overby is the author of "Explore Europe on Foot" and several other walking-based travel guides that promote hiking as a better way to travel. She describes it as a more intimate experience because you get to know your surroundings, and you are able to get a taste for the local culture. You might have seen the New York Times recent article on ‘the year of the long walk”. People are longing for a slower and more mindful experience when they travel.

Cassandra also teaches classes and offers trip consultations to help people plan the walking trip of their dreams. She’s a specialist on the Camino de Santiago and is likely one of very few who got married on the steps of the Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela. She was also travel host Rick Steve’s guide on the Camino. Learn more about the appeal of walking vacations here: https://explore-on-foot.com/ .

Camp Reinvention - Fall 2023 Program You know I am not one to promote anything that I don't stand by 100%. I am thrilled to be partnering with Wendy Perottii and Dana Hilmer, the minds behind Camp Reinvention. If you are interested in learning about how to become the very best version of yourself in this new phase....you owe it to yourself to check this out. These women are both master coaches with tons of experience helping women transform their lives. They've put together a comprehensive program that is science and results based and helps you create a life with more vibrance, passion and clarity. I'm really impressed with their work and happy to be supporting them. Please use this link: https://zestfulaging.krtra.com/t/H5VIADPLa4lF when you order.*

Addressing Quality Health Care in Indigenous Communities

Dr. Peter Rohloff is the co-founder and Chief Medical Officer for Maya Health Alliance, a primary care organization working with indigenous Maya communities in rural Guatemala. He never intended to move to Guatemala, but when he went to visit on vacation and learn Spanish he found his calling.

Rohloff soon learned that Guatemala has one of the largest Indigenous populations in the Americas, and more than 20 Indigenous Mayan languages. These languages are becoming endangered there which affects the health and wellbeing of the Maya people who speak them. Most health care providers do not speak the Mayan dialects, and many indigenous people do not speak Spanish. Rohoff shares his time between his home in Guatemala and teaching at Harvard Medical School. He’s an avid hiker and birdwatcher. Find out more about Maya Health Alliance: https://www.wuqukawoq.org/
