https://lnkd.in/gy7qzfsK It’s worth watching this compelling conversation between Jane Fonda and Ashton Applewhite about the role of creativity and connection in healthy aging. Backed by a Yale study, they highlight how participating in activities like art, dance, or even flower arranging—and fostering strong social connections—can add 7.5 years to your life. Creativity gets the brain going, and community keeps us grounded. The key? Inclusivity. Whether it’s an art class, a neighborhood dance group, or simply arranging flowers at home, these activities can be meaningful ways to stay connected and engaged as we age. This inspiring video reminds us that aging is a time for growth, joy, and creativity. Let’s continue to build communities that support well-being and longevity.

A Yale University study revealed something truly inspiring: older people with positive beliefs about aging live an average of 7.5 years longer than those who view aging as a path to decline and disease. This finding underscores the incredible power of mindset. On a recent episode of Sunday Morning, actress and activist Jane Fonda and writer and our beloved anti-ageism activist Ashton Applewhite shared valuable insights on how embracing aging with positivity can transform not just how we live, but how long we live. Their message is clear: #aging is not a problem to fix but a natural and meaningful part of life. Let’s challenge #ageism and cultivate a society where growing older is celebrated, not feared. https://lnkd.in/dJyTRnkW ?? Ageism has no place in our workplaces, or communities.
