Health & Wellbeing

Looking for an easy way to have better health in the New Year? Then forget about taking drastic action and making massive changes. Having had your fill of holiday sweets may curb temptation for them now, but don’t give into the temptation of strict diets and massive exercise. Extremes will not deliver the better health that you are looking for.

Are you interested in connecting with people who like to hike in the woods? AARP in St. Louis has just the ticket…Outdoor Adventure Group.

If you think that the Kansas City's “Get Off the Couch” walkers stopped just because the program ended, you’re wrong. The program, which began two years ago, has not been repeated, but some members of the walking group in Kansas City, including AARP volunteer Joyce Guess, are still walking and talking.
