WellnessWellness includes being healthy in both mind and body. Physical fitness is at the core of wellness and is central to obtaining longevity. It can also lead to a healthier mind. Think about the benefits of exercise and how it helps to decrease stress levels.
Cognitive health is a key determinant of one’s satisfaction with life, social engagement and independence. A healthy mind is also key to working on one’s overall wellness. As one ages, the mind enters different stages and needs to be prepared and engaged. Social activities, volunteer engagements, perhaps working longer should be planned for and budgeted while mobility is high. |
WealthThe healthier one is in wellness, the easier and longer ones resources will last to maintain financial security. Resources might be comprised of continued employment into one's later years, fruits of one's planned savings during their accumulation years, and lastly, government programs such as security and Medicare. If planned properly, wealth provides the elements needed for financial security. If wellness was also well planned for, studies show that one's financial plan will have longevity too.
