Flourish As You Age
BRAIN HEALTH
MENTAL MANAGEMENT
A GOOD DEATH
Let's not just fade away; let's FLOURISH as we age!
The MINDRAMP Podcasts focus on three key components that have been shown to contribute to flourishing in the later years of your life. You will find mini-series of episodes that explore each component.
1) Keeping your brain and body healthy - see The Roots of Brain Health
2) Managing your mental states - see Flourishing
3) Planning the kind of death you want to have - (coming 10/1/24))
You will also find the occasional episodes that focus social concerns that I feel have an impact on our well-being, for example "Elections."

END-OF-LIFE #6 - Remembrance Rituals & Grieving
Comments? Send me a text message.
This is the sixth of my interviews with Chris Palmer, author of the new book called ACHIEVING A GOOD DEATH.
In this episode we discuss the purpose of remembrance rituals - memorial services, eulogies and obituaries. Chris helps us to think about kind of memorial services we would like to have and reminds us to let our loved one’s know - ahead of time - the kind of remembrance rituals we would be comfortable with - and how we can make it easier for our loved one’s to fulfill these requests.
Chris and I also talk about the process of grieving and how each person tends to grieve in their own way.
