Speaker 1
Good Saturday morning to everybody. Welcome to your next chapter. It’s a production of Avery Heights Senior Living Community.

Speaker 1
Hey, Brie Heights, they are a 43-acre senior living community with a full continuum of care, including independent and assisted living, memory care, and a whole lot more. Now, this show will provide helpful hints and tips and resources for older adults that will empower and encourage you in your life’s journey. From topics related to physical and emotional health, financial health, senior living communities, and a whole lot more.

Speaker 1
Siobhan, nice to see you. Nice to see you. Ah, this is, it is, I’m just trying to get myself relaxed and settled in here.

Speaker 1
How was your week?

Speaker 2
My week was good. I’ve been reading a lot.

Speaker 1
I read every day.

Speaker 2
Yes. What are you reading? Right now I’m reading a self-help book. It’s on marriage.

Speaker 1
Ooh.

Speaker 2
Yes.

Speaker 1
You know, just seriously, last week I was just telling my producer, Jimmy J, I was at a book. I love reading biographies and autobiographies.

Speaker 2
Yeah.

Speaker 1
Love them. Yeah, same. I was at a bookstore.

Speaker 1
This is a few years back. And because I was looking for a particular biography and I’m like, you’re probably not going to have it here. I’ll just have to.

Speaker 1
I don’t. I’ll use Amazon, but I’m trying to help these, you know, some of these bookstores out because everybody. They’re closing. I know.

Speaker 2
I love small bookstores.

Speaker 1
Me too. And I wanted to help him out. And he’s like, oh, we don’t have that book here.

Speaker 1
I can order it. I don’t know when it will come in. I’m like, I’ll take care of it.

Speaker 1
That’s when I’ll resort to Amazon. But my point was, I said, there’s probably, what do you think sells more? Nonfiction, like what I like to read, or fiction?

Speaker 1
And she goes, self-help books. I’m like, oh, okay. That wasn’t even one of the choices.

Speaker 1
She goes, self-help books? We sell so many self-help books.

Speaker 2
Yeah.

Speaker 1
And I go, well, take me over to the section. Sections took up like two and a half walls because there’s self-help on just about everything under the sun.

Speaker 2
You always got to be working on yourself, always. And I’m always working on myself in all the categories, emotionally, physically, parenting, the kids, the whole thing. Marriage, you got to work on yourself. Otherwise, life just kind of drags on.

Speaker 1
So it’s a marriage book. It’s a marriage book. On how to be, what, a better spouse?

Speaker 2
A better spouse, yes. Really? Yes.

Speaker 1
Boy, I should have gotten a copy of that book. Well, you know, we’re all works in progress, right? Yes, yeah.

Speaker 2
It gives you daily things to do every day to encourage your spouse.

Speaker 1
What is the name of this book?

Speaker 2
It’s The Love Dare.

Speaker 1
I’m going to look at it. The Love Dare.

Speaker 2
Yes. It’s a movie, too, with Kirk Cameron. I can’t think of the woman that’s with him. It’s good.

Speaker 1
Okay.

Speaker 2
And he did it to his wife, this Love Dare book, and then she came back to him. It’s not a true story. Well, it could be a true story. It could be. Yeah.

Speaker 1
All right.

Speaker 2
Yeah. But you can’t tell him you’re reading the book. So now, yeah, you’re going to have to wait. Does your wife listen? This is not good.

Speaker 1
Sometimes she does. It depends on what time she gets up. Sometimes she does. Sometimes she doesn’t.

Speaker 2
He’s not reading the book.

Speaker 1
No. Never even heard of it. Well, listen. About self-help books, though. Yes. Do you apply everything that you read or is that easier said than done?

Speaker 2
It’s a take what you need and leave the rest. I think that’s a Dalai Lama thing. Take what you need and leave the rest.

Speaker 2
You can’t take it all. Because for me, I used to be one of those people, I have to believe the whole thing or I can’t take what I need. Now I take my little golden nuggets from it and then I use those.

Speaker 2
And if something doesn’t agree with me, then I just put that aside.

Speaker 1
See, I admire this. And I mean this. I don’t mind.

Speaker 1
I don’t read many self-help books. I’m too busy reading nonfiction, actually. But I’m all for self-improvement.

Speaker 1
I’ve read many of things. I’ll go online and I’ll just start reading things. Any issue you’re having.

Speaker 2
Any issue. Just, yeah. It can be fixed, especially if it’s something to do with your mind.

Speaker 2
We can retrain our minds. I learned this like three or four years ago. You can retrain your mind.

Speaker 2
But you know what people do? Sadly, it’s easier to just toss in the towel, right? Yes.

Speaker 2
Yes. Yeah. And I was doing that for years.

Speaker 2
I mean, I’m in my 50s. So I just recently, the last three years, I retrained my brain. And it’s hard, though. You have to be so aware on a daily basis.

Speaker 2
You really have to pay attention to what’s going on. You have to know your signs, your buttons, so that you’re not raging out. And you know when someone’s getting to you, getting to you, getting to you, you either have to disconnect from them, talk to them, or do something because you know you’re going to go off.

Speaker 1
Is it ever too late?

Speaker 2
No, that’s the thing. No, it’s never too late because people give up. I mean, I see it all the time, unfortunately, at my job, and that’s where you revive yourself.

Speaker 2
It’s never too late to try to change. I see so many people change at ApriHeight, so many seniors, older adults. It’s amazing.

Speaker 2
I think we were talking a few shows back about that lady where the two ladies became friends. And it was amazing just to see their onion peel back and their softer shell and just to see how amazing those two women were. And they became really good friends and they went to all sorts of activities and crafts.

Speaker 2
And it just was so cool to see that because people can change. There’s never too late. You have to want it.

Speaker 1
Well, that’s true. Yeah. You can’t – if somebody forces you to read something or watch something and you’re not there mentally, yeah, it’s not going to have any effect. But it does plant the seeds.

Speaker 2
It’s never – like I’m telling you about the love day, Rebecca. Maybe you’ll read it and maybe three years from now, maybe you really will do it. You know what I mean?

Speaker 2
So there’s nothing wrong with planting the seeds. People are like, oh, what’s the point of telling someone, giving them advice or telling them something because they’re never going to use it? It all plants seeds because there’s stuff that I’m sure you learned 10 years ago that today you go, oh, and it all starts to click.

Speaker 2
And then you’re like, why didn’t I do it 10 years ago? Because your mind just wasn’t ready. And so it’s important as us, as people that have gotten to a better place to help people.

Speaker 1
And by the time we have learned everything that we’ve read and experienced, it’s time to cash in our chips, right? I mean, we’re always evolving. Yes. I just wish that we could have started this process in my 20s so that when I got into our 50s here.

Speaker 2
Yeah, but there’s our kids, our kids. I’m like, my daughter, I’m always, I tell her the truth. I tell her the truth.

Speaker 1
No different than your parents. You don’t want to hear it.

Speaker 2
But again, you’re planting the seeds. I know my son now who’s in his 30s. And I know that he’ll say to me, you know, like he’s in marketing of all things. And so he’ll use little tips.

Speaker 2
Like he went to a trade show and it was dead. There was no people coming in. But he remembered what I used to do.

Speaker 2
I used to walk around to all the booths and make relationships. And he says, Mommy, he goes, I got four different opportunities from that. And my boss was so impressed that even though this show was dead, I was able to build four different opportunities.

Speaker 2
And that’s something that happened back when he was with me at probably a few trade shows. So you never know. Fascinating.

Speaker 2
Yeah.

Speaker 1
That’s a fascinating topic.

Speaker 2
Always give the advice.

Speaker 1
Easier than taking it.

Speaker 2
Yes. But you have to be able to take advice. I specifically surround myself with friends that now are not the yes people. the friends that are going to tell me the truth.

Speaker 1
We’re always evolving.

Speaker 2
Yes.

Speaker 1
What’s going on over at Avery Heights?

Speaker 2
At Avery Heights, we do a ton of stuff. We do a lot of fun stuff. Like we do a lot of word games and trivia, even like bingo.

Speaker 2
We’re all about making sure we’re expanding the mind. It’s a use it or lose it type of mentality. So our activities calendar has gotten a reboot again.

Speaker 2
With COVID, obviously, it was so hard and we had to cut so many things out. And every month we’re adding more things, which is great, which I love to see. And, yeah, more clubs and more organizations.

Speaker 2
More people are coming in as well.

Speaker 1
One of many older adults’ bigger fears, I would imagine, is losing memory or brain function. I know last week we had on people from Alzheimer’s Association and the big Alzheimer’s walk. And obviously, while we cannot control what happens in life, we can try our best to follow best practices for our health and well-being.

Speaker 1
Exercising the brain may help improve brain function and boost connectivity between the different areas. This may also help protect the brain from age-related degeneration. So what do you think?

Speaker 1
Today, we’re going to discuss some do’s and don’ts to protect our brain and maybe even doing some brain exercises as well.

Speaker 2
I’m very competitive, so this will be a test of my self-help books to see if I can maintain my composure.

Speaker 1
Well, let me start with something. How do you exercise your brain? Is it really just playing? Remember match game or match?

Speaker 2
You’re trying to match things? Yeah, yeah. Little kids with that whole thing.

Speaker 2
With the cards? Yes, that’s awesome. Yeah, I love that.

Speaker 2
Yeah. And also doing math in your head. You know, like when you’re at the register and say, you know, you’re figuring out the tip.

Speaker 2
Rather than sit there with your calculator, try to do it in your head. And that exercises the brain. Not always going to, you know, Google, spend a couple of minutes.

Speaker 2
Like if you can’t remember a name of a movie, like spend a few minutes really trying to remember it with association. Like you can go through the alphabet. You can go, okay, what was the name of that movie?

Speaker 2
Was it, you know, Apocalypse Now? Was it, you know, I’m trying to think of a B movie. Barney or whatever you know like instead of like just going to Google and looking it up try to figure it out and in your brain and or an actor or whatever those things are that we you know we have so you know we have years like I said earlier I was 50 years old so I have 50 years of like memories and so obviously I’m going to forget the movie that Sigourney Weaver was in with the aliens that’s a silly one because it’s aliens but very good wrong example bad example but You know what I meant.

Speaker 2
You want to hear something crazy?

Speaker 1
I couldn’t tell you what I had for dinner two nights ago.

Speaker 2
But try to remember. Try to remember where you were sitting. Like if you try to remember where was I sitting, who was I with, what – have you cooked it?

Speaker 2
Did I use a pan? Did I use a pot? Did I use my new whisk?

Speaker 2
You know, that’s the stuff that helps you remember. What did I have for dinner? Was it a recipe that I used or was it, you know, my mom’s recipe?

Speaker 2
And it’s always good to try to look back and remember something. That’s a way to exercise the brain. That’s one way.

Speaker 1
Yet I have pretty darn good long-term memory. Yes. Like I can tell you when I went to Vegas 20 years ago.

Speaker 2
Well, they say the heightened memories and then the low memories. So that was probably a good time, like a wedding or –

Speaker 1
The first night I can tell you what I had for – where I had the dinner, what I ordered. Yes.

Speaker 2
So that was really fun. That imprinted. Or the lows, like a friend dies or a parent passing away or a bad accident. You can probably remember everything that happened in that bad accident, but you can’t remember how you got here or whatever. Because they say the highs and the lows are really imprint on the brain.

Speaker 1
How often should we be doing this?

Speaker 2
All the time. Every day. Every day.

Speaker 2
Every day try to like exercise your brain. Even with reading. We’re talking about reading, meditating, playing games, learning a new skill.

Speaker 2
Like I hate the fact that I never wanted to learn anything new because it was always like people think that you just need to know how to do it. Like I’ve never played volleyball. But yet if I get on the court, I’m supposed to somehow know how to do it.

Speaker 2
Don’t be afraid to not know.

Speaker 1
You’ve never played volleyball.

Speaker 2
Well, I’ve played volleyball. But I’m saying if I’ve never played volleyball, people would expect me. Like golf.

Speaker 2
Oh, my gosh. It was a horrible experience. Someone was trying to teach me how to play golf because they were like yelling at me.

Speaker 2
And I’m like, I’ve never played golf. Stop yelling at me.

Speaker 1
I can barely play miniature golf. I keep hitting that windmill. It keeps coming around.

Speaker 1
I’m like, oh, jeez. Give me a mulligan. Give me one more.

Speaker 1
Come on. I’ll give one to you, too. All right, Gary.

Speaker 1
Go again. And then I hit it again.

Speaker 2
Yeah, but you got to keep trying. Don’t be afraid to try new stuff, you know, a new recipe, a new way. Go a new way to work.

Speaker 2
You know, don’t go that same old way. Go a different way. You know, get lost.

Speaker 1
That’d be on the way home from work.

Speaker 2
Yeah.

Speaker 1
Not on the way to work. No, because you’re out. We’re waiting for him.

Speaker 1
I decided to take the long way in there, guys. I hope you don’t mind. Are there any things that can harm our brain function?

Speaker 2
Yes, definitely. So sedentary lifestyle. So like if you’re – you just wake up in the morning.

Speaker 2
You roll out of bed. You watch TV. You don’t get up to – you have all your food right there.

Speaker 2
Maybe you even have one of those fridges.

Speaker 1
Laziness in other words.

Speaker 2
What you’re saying is don’t be lazy. Yeah, right. It’s not good.

Speaker 2
So get up and exercise. Bad diet. You want to have low cholesterol and high in antioxidants.

Speaker 2
You want to make sure you’re eating well. Like we said, there’s good. It’s OK of cheating.

Speaker 2
We said that the last show is OK to cheat. But you want to make sure on the end, if you’re not eating well, make sure you have good supplements.

Speaker 1
The irony in all this, Siobhan, is that it’s cheaper to eat crap. Isn’t it? Eat healthy.

Speaker 2
It’s expensive. It’s very expensive. Yeah, it is expensive.

Speaker 2
But you got to do it because it’s more expensive your health. Because if you’re, you know, if you end up with like, you know, Alzheimer’s, dementia, like we were talking about last show or cancer or any of that stuff. That’s going to be more expensive than it’s hard.

Speaker 2
Aldi’s is good for getting food. It’s a grocery store. Yeah.

Speaker 2
Yeah. That’s good for getting healthy food. Oh, is it really?

Speaker 2
Yes. It’s very affordable and they have nice fresh produce and that’s really affordable. A lot of people do that.

Speaker 2
Yeah.

Speaker 1
Aldi’s right in my time.

Speaker 2
Yeah.

Speaker 1
I don’t think I’ve ever been in it.

Speaker 2
Check it out. I mean, I don’t think they always stock the same thing all the time, but their fruit is very good. Yeah. And you can eat healthy there. They have a lot of healthy options.

Speaker 1
I’m glad that there’s no things that we can do. All right. Let’s have some fun with a competition to exercise our brains.

Speaker 1
Now, I think you mentioned that playing games like trivia, for example, is a game to play that exercises the brain. You can do that, right? Match.

Speaker 1
We were talking earlier. Match you can do. So what are we going to do?

Speaker 1
We’re going to compete right here in the studio. You and I. Okay. So you and I against each other.

Speaker 1
Yes. And we’ll invite you, the listener, to compete at home or wherever you happen to be. You can call in your scores and the best score will win a complimentary lunch or dinner for two at where?

Speaker 1
Where? Avery Heights. Oh, yeah.

Speaker 2
The best place in town.

Speaker 1
Well, as we heard a few weeks back.

Speaker 2
Yes.

Speaker 1
Oh, my goodness. That show we were doing with the chef there or the. The dining director.

Speaker 2
Yeah, he does an amazing job. And he is a chef. He just did a cooking demonstration over at the East Hartford Senior Center, and they loved it.

Speaker 2
Like they were following him out the door. Really? Yeah, he did a great job.

Speaker 2
Yeah, he made quinoa salad. He made like a Mediterranean diet soup, and then he had baklava, and they loved him. Yeah.

Speaker 1
All right. I got to move along to another subject here because I’m getting hungry.

Speaker 2
It’s time for the competition.

Speaker 1
All right. So questions for a trivia quiz here. So we have our producer Jimmy J is with us in the studio. What are you going to do? He’s going to read the question.

Speaker 2
He’s going to read the question. Keep us honest.

Speaker 1
Okay. And then what do we each got to write down the answer?

Speaker 2
Yeah.

Speaker 1
Okay.

Speaker 2
We’re keeping it in our head and then we can say it.

Speaker 1
All right. So are we timed for each question, for each answer?

Speaker 2
Yeah. He’ll time it. He’ll know when we’re taking too long.

Speaker 2
All right. And then we’ll have the answer and then you say it or I’ll say it. And then, again, it’s the honor system.

Speaker 2
So if I say the right answer, you can’t repeat me.

Speaker 1
All right. Let’s do it. I’m game. No pun intended.

Speaker 3
All righty, here we go. First question. In the 1930s, this product was advertised with the phrase, don’t put a cold in your pocket.

Speaker 1
Hey, what does that mean? You’re humming the Jeopardy theme song. First of all, I wasn’t around in the 30s. Don’t put a cold in your pocket. So something that would be, you know, almost like you said, don’t put a comb in your pocket.

Speaker 2
I think they used to use hankies, hankies. And then they stopped using hankies, so they started using something more disposable.

Speaker 1
Oh, like a, oh, do I write this down? Yes.

Speaker 2
Now that I’ve helped you.

Speaker 1
That’s it, though. No more helping. A brand name or, okay.

Speaker 3
All right. Let’s see what we got, Siobhan.

Speaker 1
I got Kleenex.

Speaker 3
Gary? Kleenex.

Speaker 2
I gave that to you.

Speaker 1
She did.

Speaker 3
Give that to Siobhan.

Speaker 2
No, I’ll give it to Siobhan. That’s the warm-up. Okay.

Speaker 2
Now we’re competing. Now we’re competing. Okay.

Speaker 3
All right. All right. The warm-up round is over.

Speaker 3
Here we go with question number two. Okay. This coffee is known by the name of the Nashville Hotel, where it built its reputation.

Speaker 3
Go, go.

Speaker 1
Ah.

Speaker 3
Okay the answers are locked in Well at first

Speaker 1
This is kind of mean At first I was going to put Oh I know that house That’s a nut house So the chock full of nuts But then I thought No I don’t That wouldn’t be too nice for this I thought I thought Maxwell House

Speaker 3
Same Maxwell House is the correct answer

Speaker 1
Right look at that I almost put Folgers Folgers You didn’t see these questions Before we because you brought them with you.

Speaker 3
Question number three. Yeah. This former planet’s discovery was announced on March 13th, 1930, Percival Lowell’s birthday.

Speaker 1
A planet that was discovered in the 1930s on Percival Lowell. I don’t know who that is. Is that in relation to the planet? Is he an astrologer? I’d be taking a stab at this you seem to know

Speaker 2
I think I know based on a couple of things I think if I read the question again

Speaker 3
he might get it here’s the question this former planet’s discovery was announced on March 13th 1930 Percival Lowell’s birthday

Speaker 1
former planet They took the status away. It’s the one that’s furthest out, I think. That’s not how I got it, though. Was it Jupiter?

Speaker 3
We’re going to go and lock that answer in for him. That’s incorrect.

Speaker 2
Pluto.

Speaker 3
Pluto is correct.

Speaker 2
But I didn’t get it because of the former. I got it because of the guy’s name. Percival Lowell, Pluto, right? Probably named it after him.

Speaker 1
P.L.

Speaker 2
Yeah.

Speaker 1
Percival Lowell. P.L. Percival Lowell. Yeah. U-T-O.

Speaker 2
Yeah.

Speaker 1

Classic. Classic. They just had an anniversary this year, right?

Speaker 2
Was this year or last year? Was it the anniversary of The Godfather? Yeah.

Speaker 2
Yeah.

Speaker 1
I didn’t like the third one so much.

Speaker 2
I didn’t mind it because I like when things get wrapped up. Like I like when they wrap it up.

Speaker 1
I just thought they could have. They did such a phenomenal job with the first two. Even a sequel. How many sequels are as good as the first? But then I thought maybe the third one.

Speaker 2
The third one was a little dragged a little bit. I think so. Yeah. And it didn’t have as much direction.

Speaker 1
There you go.

Speaker 2
Yeah. Yeah.

Speaker 3
All right. All right. We got some more here.

Speaker 3
All right. We’re ready. Located in Africa, its name means Great Mountain and has two peaks, Kimbo and Mawensi, that are seven miles apart.

Speaker 2
I might know. Go ahead. You go first.

Speaker 1
Kilimanjaro.

That’s what I thought.

Speaker 3
Kilimanjaro is correct. Yes.

Speaker 2
I didn’t spell it all out. K-L-I-N.

Speaker 1
Spelling doesn’t count. Good enough.

Speaker 2
It just came to me.

Speaker 1
They almost tied it up there.

Speaker 3
This word from Latin for unfold, also some believe the biological name for how mankind was created. This word from Latin for unfold, also some believe the biology name, excuse me, the biology name for how mankind was created.

Speaker 1
I got to lock this something in here. It’s on the tip of my tongue, too.

Speaker 2
Exercising the brain.

Speaker 1
Yeah, yeah, yeah. All right.
