When a person enters retirement, many people assume they must be tired or worn down.

However, this stereotype is being shredded by seniors around the world — many of whom age like superstars or even superheroes.

What’s the secret to going into your later years and loving life more than ever?

The first step to age with dignity is to mind your physical health. Yes, retirement is a time to splurge and relax. But health is a lifestyle — so never forget that you need to maintain a diet with all essential nutrients, as well as an exercise regimen that’s suited to your body.

The second, which is just as important, involves your mental health. Stay connected to loved ones, even if you have to do so virtually. You should also stay engaged with the world, which can be done by reading and using your spare time to focus on hobbies that help you and others.
