Living Your Legacy: Embracing the Longevity Bonus

12/31/2024

By Jay Weisman, CAP®, Legacy Philanthropy Group
Have you thought about how you will be remembered by generations to come? Most people believe that a legacy is something you leave when you pass – something that gets laid out somehow in the instructions in a will. Your legacy is the stories you create and tell while you’re here on this earth, sharing the journey with those that you care about. I believe that you get to “live” a legacy rather than “leave” a legacy and that we each get to have a hand in choosing what that legacy will be.

“Doesn’t everything die at last and too soon? Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?”     Mary Oliver
​

​
Aging contributes to an increase in poor balance, inclination to injuries, reduced flexibility, and reduced tolerance to heat and humidity.

The benefits of exercise far outweigh the risks associated with increased physical activity. Keeping fit is among the most important things we can do to stay healthy as we age. Functional exercises benefit aging adults, athletes and everyone in between.

By Mary Ellen Zung, Certified Holistic Health Coach
Life is constantly changing and challenging us with new “problems” or issues to face. We can look at these negatively and feel overwhelmed, or stuck and unhappy, or we can use strategies like goal setting, for example, to manage new priorities without having the issues throw us off our game, bring us down, cause stress, anxiety, or worry, and lead to emotional eating.  All unhealthy stuff!  ​Goal setting is one strategy that helps get into problem solving mode by focusing on and shifting my priorities

By Mary Ellen Zung, Mary Ellen Zung Health Coach 
​Is Work Stressing You Out? How does too much work, or stress effect your self-care, health and happiness? Think about it: you spend eight to 10 hours a day, five days a week at work. Chances are you spend more time with your coworkers than anyone else in your life. Some of us are still working from home, but are glued to our computers for that time. Many of us wear stress as a badge of honor, convinced that productivity requires endless turmoil. How does stress inform your food choices?
