We are celebrating Active Aging Week! The 20th Anniversary of Active Aging Week, presented by Humana, is a reminder that the lifestyle choices we all make daily don’t just add years to our life but, more importantly, more life to our years.
ACTIVE AGING WEEK
SEPTEMBER 30th - October 6th
Recent studies have revealed that genetics may account for as little as 20% of our longevity, and our lifestyle is responsible for the other 80%. Despite the never-ending twists and turns of life, this is a great time to be over 60, 70, 80, or 90. There’s an entirely new stage of life available. Active Aging Week, presented by Humana, is designed to help you make the most of the opportunity—spending more time with those you love, doing things you enjoy, and making a difference in the lives of others. The International Council on Active Aging says wellness is derived from our ability to understand, accept and act upon our capacity to lead a purpose-filled and engaged life. Each day, we'll share ideas and resources focused on embracing one of the 7 Dimensions of Wellness.
