For mental exercise, do a course in anything that interests you. At any level, the benefit is thinking about something new, plus the social benefits of meeting with a new group of minds. Look in the local paper, U3A, School for Seniors, look on your local Council website or even the local library. Join a social interest group and learn a new skill. Currently Robert (hubby) and I are at NMIT doing Bachelor of Writing and Publishing. Amazing how good it feels to stretch the brain again. Yes we are the oldest in the class, but there is more of a mix of ages than we thought. I think it is more fun now than in our twenties. Here's a link to our Uni. Happy thinking!

Lynda & Trish share from their book and review everything SENIORWISE we come across
Thursday, 26 April 2012
Welcome all seniors and their friends
Welcome all to our new blog.
Lynda on the left and Trish on the right. We are Trinda; coined by a lecturer at the Sydney Writers' Centre when we said we write together.
In our hands are copies of our resource book, What Can I Do?, for Aussie seniors. Published by Hachette Australia, it is available at bookshops, or order from us.
Our aim is to review everything we come across, from a senior point of view. Topics will cover travel, creative endeavours, restaurants, accomodation, education, social activities, competitions, exercise choices, health tips and MORE.We've managed to lose a few kilos since 2009, but we love the photo, so it stays for now:)
