There are so many fallacies we are fed about ageing and what that looks like for our third half of life. Holly is on a mission to combat myths such as letting ourselves wither away and sit around doing nothing. Today she talks about happiness and ageing and how important it is to embrace our relationships and inspires us to indulge and participate fully in our lives. Listen as she expands on:

• A Harvard Study started in 1938 which explores important aspects of happiness and longevity of life.
• Investing, listening and being present with people and building positive relationships which breed positivity and happiness.
• How change is inevitable.
• Small ways we can focus on happiness and striving to be happy every day.

The quotes and extracts referenced in this episode include Wherever You Go, There You Are by Jon Kabat-Zinn, The happiness curve:why life gets better after 50 and The Age of Miracles:Embracing the New Midlife by Marianne Williamson.
