HEALTHY BODY, HEALTHY MIND

In this series of Rewirement from Legal & General, Angellica Bell is hearing colourful, unique and inspiring stories from people in retirement. 

If there are dreams you want to fulfil later in life, or you’d like an active lifestyle in retirement, how can you make sure you stay healthy and physically fit to achieve it all? Our bodies are always changing and managing the psychological aspects of different life stages is essential too. 

Angellica finds out how two unique retirees have achieved this. Jill is a former teacher with bundles of energy who eased her way into retirement with part-time work, and bought a Sprocker Spaniel to keep pace with her running hobby. 

Peter’s also a keen runner, but he explains how pursuing an art degree helped him scratch an itch his careers in engineering and journalism hadn’t reached. He tells us his three pillars for staying mentally and physically happy and healthy in retirement. 

To get some expert ideas and financially savvy suggestions, Angellica’s chatting with Legal & General’s Emma Byron, Managing Director of Retirement Solutions, as well as health coach Susan Saunders. 

Susan’s on a mission to help people ‘age well’, so whether you want to fund an active hobby or give your brain a workout, this episode is sure to inspire you to find your own unique version of a happy retirement.
