Within the next 8-10 years, 65 year-olds will outnumber children aged five and under for the first time in our history. As we live longer and face the financial, relational, and health factors often associated with longevity, effective coping strategies become increasingly important to the maintenance of creative, healthy lifestyles.
This lecture, by Todd K. Favorite, PhD., will focus on the impact of psychological stressors as we adjust to changes in life after years of dedication to careers and families. The value of close relationships; taking control and living with intentionality; engagement in community and networking; and discovering meaning and purpose in each stage of life are among the timely topics Dr. Favorite will discuss.
