At his recent Chartered presentation, Dr Wayne Derman made reference to the Blue Zones. These are geographical areas in the world where people have been found to live longer – and better!
These five areas are: Sardinia, Italy; the islands of Okinawa, Japan; Loma LInda, California; Nicoya Peninsula, Costa Rica; Icaria, Greece.
More significant than where they are, is what the residents of these regions have in common, factors that contribute to longevity and quality of life.
These factors include:
How is this relevant to us, besides the obvious lessons regarding living longer?
I was delighted to see what synergy exists between these ingredients for a long and meaningful life and the Wheel of Balance of which Retire Successfully has always been such a proponent. Create a balanced life by seeking to live significantly in all areas: Work, Give back, Relationships, Money, Learning, Health, Purpose and Play.
