We hope you are enjoying what you are reading and seeing.<\/p>\n<p>Over the past several years, the Healthy Aging\u00ae website, Healthy Aging\u00ae Magazine, newsletter and social media have been picking up steam. We\u2019ve been adding more and more quality content that, hopefully, you won\u2019t see everywhere else.<\/p>\n<p>This latest issue is just one example.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-6129 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/healthyaging.net\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/HA-Mag-cover-tony-robbins-placeholder.-Replace-with-BC-version-331-x-420.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"192\" height=\"252\" \/>As you will see as you page through the articles, our goal is to help you with information and inspiration to improve your lifestyle, find your \u201cnext passage,\u201d help you change your career, get motivated and to be positive.<\/p>\n<p>We are also hearing from readers who tell us that unique and active travel is an important part of their lives. So, Healthy Aging\u00ae is focusing more and more on active travel through in-depth articles on insider places to visit and off-the-beaten path destinations.<\/p>\n<p>As part of the over 45-plus crowd, we all are finally having a little bit more time to travel and, hopefully, have the means to do it.<\/p>\n<p>We also continue to see the importance of social wellness by encouraging our readers to stay in touch with friends and family and to hang onto traditions that bring people together.<\/p>\n<p>Throughout the Healthy Aging\u00ae media platform, you will find interesting and delicious recipes to try, share and make part of your social wellness as well as your nutritional plan.<\/p>\n<p>In this issue, we have put special focus on finances. You might be inspired by our features such as \u201cTony Robbins, Life Strategist\u201d; \u201cTry a Retirement Dress Rehearsal\u201d; My Retirement Plan: New and Authentic Life Experiences\u201d\nWe\u2019ve added a new feature series on new products. This will become a regular column for you to enjoy.<\/p>\n<p>The travel feature is on Catalonia, Spain\u2013a very cosmopolitan area of Spain that you need to visit if you haven\u2019t already. So many people we hear from say they\u2019ve been to Madrid or Barcelona but have not ventured further. Now is the time!<\/p>\n<p>And, what a way to go with a wine and food tour through Catalonia. Just fly into Barcelona, rent a car and go! You can bring your bike and tour through the vineyards, stay at country inns or castles, eat at chef-owned restaurants, shop for fashionable clothes (at reasonable prices now that the dollar is almost on par with the Euro), and soak up the culture of this country with hundreds of years of history to share. Buen viaje!<\/p>\n<p>Also in the travel feature category, we\u2019ve also taken a look at what\u2019s new in \u201call-inclusive\u201d vacations. They ain\u2019t what they used to be, baby. If you haven\u2019t taken one since the kids were small, check them out. What\u2019s new? They are more all-inclusive than ever before and the focus is on \u201cdoing\u201d vs. just sitting.<\/p>\n<p>What\u2019s coming? Watch for more in our upcoming active travel series to appear on the Healthy Aging\u00ae website, more new product reviews and for our new Healthy Aging\u00ae Travel Podcast Series.<\/p>\n<p>We would love to hear from you so let us know what you might like us to cover, your thoughts on the articles, etc. on Facebook.<\/p>\n<p>Have a great summer!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-2476 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/healthyaging.net\/magazine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/08\/carolyn-signature-HealthyAgingNewsletter.jpg\" alt=\"carolyn signature Healthy Aging\" width=\"110\" height=\"75\" \/><\/p>\n<p><em>Carolyn E.
