Aging in Place: Bucket List, with Daphne Davis

Daphne Davis at Pinnacle Senior Placements explains that as our bodies age naturally, we tend to focus more on survival-type thinking: “Who's coming over today?” “Did I take my medicines?” “When can I get my gutters cleaned?” and other types of chores. Our brain becomes more occupied with those things rather than regular living. Our goal as we age is to continue living to our fullest, and having things to look forward to. The notion of the “bucket list” is to keep in mind that there are still things you want to do in life. Do you really want to focus your thoughts on cleaning out your refrigerator, or how about thinking instead about taking that watercolor class you always wanted, or challenging yourself to conquering some fear you've had.
