Retirement Options

The concept of retirement is being redefined. Our perception and mindset is changing. The length of time in this stage of life could be 20+ years. Today it’s less about stopping and more about shifting to contributions and activities that are fulfilling. A longer, healthier post-career life is full of potential and it demands some thoughtful planning.

Rewilding

A friend of mine who is retiring in April told us she wants to “rewild” herself when she stops full time work. I love the feelings this metaphor evokes - naturally vital, healthy, peaceful and beautiful with a sense that all is as it should be.

Fulfilling pastimes

Hobbies and leisure activities are important to our wellbeing. They relax and balance our life, engage our minds, keep us active and connected to others. It is also important to explore hobbies with fresh eyes as we move through life’s stages.

Stay sharp with purpose-based living

A clear life purpose is more than just feeling fulfilled and satisfied with life, it actually promotes resilience to brain damage caused by aging.

Make room for what’s next

Intentionally creating space to embrace life more fully in retirement means clearing out some clutter - physical, emotional, mental and energetic - to make room for something new.
