In this Longevity podcast series, I'll be delving into three key aspects:  physical well-being, mental fitness and Ikigai- , a Japanese word for Life with a purpose.  In today’s episode, we will talk about the myth of physical activeness towards to longevity; and in the next episode , we'll explore the unconventional idea of eschewing retirement– a departure from the commonly pursued early retirement path among many Americans.    The idea of no retirement seems recently got some tractions among many.  But How is retirement or no retirement related to longevity? Please stay tuned to my next episode. The last one of this series will be life with Ikigai- live with a meaning.
