Many people look forward to that moment when they can sit back, relax, and enjoy the spoils earned from a lifetime of work. And, the transition from working life to retirement can lead to cognitive decline and even depression, due to diminished activity, routine, and social interaction. But it doesn’t have to. Retirement “can also be an opportunity for improving cognitive and mental health, with newfound time to socialize and take on hobbies,” according to this piece by Mohana Ravindranath for The New York Times. It’s all about making a plan for finding purpose, socializing, and trying out new things.
