Learning Later, Living Greater
The Secret for Making the Most of Your After-50 Years.
Lifelong Learning in Your Later Years…
a Health Club for Your Body, Mind and Spirit!
Welcome! My name is Nancy Merz Nordstrom and this blog is all about the benefits of incorporating lifelong learning into our After-50 years, and where that might lead. For instance I have become a new author, for the first time, at age 61, thanks to my passion for later-life learning.
So, over the coming months, follow the story of lifelong learning for older adults and the steps that led up to the writing of my new book, "Learning Later, Living Greater: The Secret for Making the Most of Your-After 50 Years."
This blog is a kind of behind-the-scenes peek at my involvement with later-life learning and what it took to get to the point where I could begin thinking about writing a book. Then, we’ll look at how that idea evolved from a dream to a reality.
Now, a quick word about the book, "Learning Later, Living Greater: The Secret for Making the Most of Your-After 50 Years." It’s all about making lifelong learning a part of your later years - how it can enrich and enhance your life, and keep you connected, tuned in and productive, even after you are no longer working full-time.
"Learning Later, Living Greater" is a user-friendly, easy, breezy read designed to help you figure out if lifelong learning, and all it has to offer, should be part of your After-50 years.
The book discusses the benefits of lifelong learning, and its connection with the health of your brain, your mind and your spirit. We also look at three of the most popular ways to incorporate lifelong learning into your later years:
Lifelong learning in the classroom
Lifelong learning through educational travel
Lifelong learning through community service.
So, hang on! It’s going to be an exciting ride! By the time we’re through, you’ll be thinking of lifelong learning “After 50” as a kind of health club - a way to invigorate…
YOUR BODY, YOUR MIND AND YOUR SPIRIT!
Till Next Time...
