Course Description

Aging can feel like a daunting task filled with many decisions and changes that are challenging and out of our control. In this course you will find yourself back in the driver's seat, as we explore the "8 Keys to Thriving As You Age": money (safety and options), simplicity (managing change), health (independence), legacy (your story), happiness (your dream), support (connections), purpose (meaning), and preparation (relaxation). Each session will be a blend of current information, helpful tips, and presentations from guest speakers on that topic. The course is not intended to dictate a particular "right answer" but rather to help each student feel more organized and perhaps a little more curious and positive about the process of growing older. By the end of the course, you will not only have a solid understanding of the "8 Keys" but you will have designed your own "Life-Map."  Lecture (plus Questions) Facilitated Discussion Active Participation Listening to Music or Other Audio Viewing Videos
