The circles overlap for couple time—date night, activities together, time alone together. If you have
children, add a third circle for kid-oriented or family time. Depending on the ages of your children, that
circle will be larger at some times than others, but the important thing is to have your own circle, large
enough to have time for individual pursuits not involving your partner or the kids.

12. Never Stop Being Parents
• The left side of the graphic above illustrates the
practices that parents need to strengthen to
successfully let go and launch their young adult.
• The circle on the right side illustrates actions that the
young adult can take to move forward with their
healthy separation from parents.
• The two circles are separate but the wavy white lines
indicate communication and connection between the
parent and young adult when the separation process
is successful.
• These practices are portrayed within a circular
framework to indicate that there isn’t necessarily a
starting point and that as parents, we need to exhibit
these the rest of our lives.
• After all, we never stop being parents. As such, we
never stop needing to understand, love, apologize,
forgive, and show backbone with our young adults.

14. PHYSICAL EXERCISE FOR THE OLD AGE –
NATIONAL LIBRARY OF MEDICINE
(A Healthy Lifestyle in Old Age and Prospective Change
in Four Domains of Functioning - PMC (nih.gov)
• In conclusion, the results of this study indicate that an overall healthy lifestyle
in old age, consisting of never smoking, moderate alcohol consumption,
being physically active, and having a healthy body weight, is associated
with slower declines in physical, psychological, cognitive, and social
functioning with aging. A healthy lifestyle seems beneficial up to very old age.
• As only one out of five older adults had an overall healthy lifestyle in this study,
there is considerable room for lifestyle improvement. Health professionals
should communicate that a healthy lifestyle benefits all domains of functioning
with aging, in addition to preventing disease and increasing life
expectancy.
