Older Americans Are Redefining Aging Alone The number of older Americans living alone is growing. Here’s what to know

More older adults are living solo than ever - not because they’re isolated, but because they’re choosing autonomy. The challenge isn’t solo aging itself, but the lack of support systems that keep people safe as they age. @AARP

What Covid Taught Us About The Future Of Financial Advice How the Covid-19 pandemic changed our world and what it means for the future of financial advice.

COVID did not change the need for advice, it changed the expectations. Clients want steadier planning, faster communication, and guidance that connects money to health, family, and purpose across a longer life. @FAMagazine

Getting Old - The Best of Times and The Worst of Times A recent report shared that our lifespan is about 78 years, but our “healthspan” is only 66 years. How do we manage this gap?

Aging can be the best of times and the worst of times at once. Booming Encore highlights the health span gap: about 78 years of life, about 66 years in good health. Longevity planning starts with that reality. @BoomingEncore

Weight Loss is Good, but Maybe Not for Your Bones There's a downside to weight loss that many older adults may not know about: It can speed bone loss. Weight-bearing exercise can help.

Weight Loss is Good, but Not for Your Bones
Many older adults may not know that losing weight speeds bone loss. Weight-bearing exercise or a weighted vest can help. bit.ly/4bAKky7 #seniors #glp1weightloss #bonehealth #BoneDensity #obesitymedicine #agingwell @wakeforest.bsky.social #boneloss #aging

Retirement isn't a one-size-fits-all journey There are four distinct stages in the new retirement journey, and each offers advisers opportunities to help clients reflect on what they need to do to live comfortably throughout retirement.

The old script for retirement is outdated. Research with Age Wave suggests four stages in today’s retirement journey, and the real risk is planning for only one version of it. @investmentnews

Tailored Online Physical Activity Coaching for Middle-Aged and Older Adults With Cognitive and Mental Health Concerns: Single-Arm Pre-Post Intervention Study Background: Low levels of physical activity (PA) increase dementia risk, and for middle-aged and older adults with co-occurring cognitive concerns and mental health symptoms, dementia risk increases further. Despite clinical trials showing lower adherence to PA interventions in high-risk groups, there is a sparsity of interventions tailored to support unique behavior change needs. In EXCEL (Exercise for Cognitive Health) phase 1, we developed a model to understand the needs of this population and identified tailoring requirements to enhance engagement. Here we report the findings of a pilot online intervention designed to support middle-aged and older adults with subjective cognitive decline or mild cognitive impairment and mild to moderate symptoms of depression or anxiety to meet PA guidelines. Objective: We aimed to measure (1) efficacy of the intervention in promoting adoption of PA in line with national guidelines, (2) acceptability, feasibility, and safety of the intervention, (3) changes to dementia risk, PA levels, mental health symptoms, and stages of change, and (4) changes in potential cognitive mechanisms of change. Methods: A pilot individual 12-week online home-based PA intervention. Participants aged 45-80 years, experiencing both cognitive and mild-to-moderate anxiety and depression symptoms, were prescribed individually tailored PA programs combining aerobic and strength PA, plus balance training as indicated, with fortnightly online coaching. Results: A total of 55 participants were enrolled (46 females/9 males; mean age 62.2, SD 7.6 y). The intervention was effective; at baseline, only 3 of 55 (6%) participants met all applicable PA guidelines, compared to 24 of 55 (44%) participants post intervention (

Sounding Board: Shifting from retirement planning to longevity planning In conversations with pre-retirees, retirees and industry professionals, there’s a growing recognition that retiring is often the easy part — it’s figuring out what they’re going to do with the rest…

The goal is not just to fund retirement, it’s to fund a longer life. Longevity planning asks the better questions: how will you stay healthy, connected, and useful for the years ahead? @BenefitsCanada
