4 Japanese Techniques to experience Joy, Self-Inprovment, Growth, and Improved Physical and Mental Health:
1. Ikigai:
It means to have a purpose in life.
4 Rules of Ikigai:
Do what you love.
Do what you are good at.
Do what the world needs.
Do what you can be paid for.
2. Kaizen:
It means focusing on “small” improvements every day, not waiting for big improvements, but trying to become 1% better everyday.
3. Shoshin:
It is a concept from that means approaching things with a beginner's mindset. It refers to having an attitude of openness, eagerness, and lack of preconceptions when studying, just as a beginner would. "If your mind is open, it has room to learn something new"
4. Hara Hachi Bu:
This means to stop eating after you're 80% “full”. When you’re are at 80% “full” your body will have more than enough energy to digest your meal, leaving energy to spare. However, if you eat to 100% “full”, you will feel tired, have brain fog and will lead to disease.

Aging Gracefully with Joy: Tips for Enjoying your Golden Years
By Dr Pena, DC - Riverside Spine and Disc.
Turning 60 and beyond is a milestone to celebrate! Aging gracefully means embracing this new season with vitality, positivity, and purpose. Here are practical, evidence-based ways to stay healthy, happy, and energized as time marches on, so you can enjoy your golden years with joy in your heart.
1. Keep Your Body Moving and Strong
Staying active supports your energy, mobility, and mood, helping you feel vibrant at any age.
• Move Daily: Try low-impact activities like walking, yoga, swimming, or dancing for 30 minutes most days. Join a group or take a nature walk for fun and connection.
• Eat Well: Focus on whole foods—lean proteins, fruits, veggies, nuts, and greens. Limit processed foods and sugar, and drink plenty of water to stay hydrated and glowing.
• Sleep Soundly: Aim for 7-9 hours of restful sleep in a dark, cozy space. Wind down with deep breathing or a screen-free routine to recharge.
Regular chiropractic care can also help maintain mobility and reduce discomfort, keeping you active and aligned!
2. Nurture a Positive Mindset
A joyful outlook can transform how you experience aging. Focus on what you can control and embrace this time with wisdom.
• Practice Gratitude: Each day, reflect on something you’re thankful for, big or small. Use positive self-talk to boost confidence and let go of doubts.
• Stay Curious: Keep your mind sharp with puzzles, reading, or a new hobby like painting or gardening. Learning keeps life exciting!
• Manage Stress: Listen to calming music, walk in nature, or meditate to stay centered. Accept life’s changes with flexibility and hope.
3. Build Strong Connections
Relationships bring joy and a sense of belonging, which are key to emotional health.
• Stay Social: Spend time with family, friends, or neighbors—call, meet for coffee, or join a club like a walking group or book club. Surround yourself with uplifting people.
• Give Back: Volunteer or help others to find purpose and deepen bonds. It’s a great way to stay connected and make a difference.
4. Find Purpose and Peace
Your 60s are a time for freedom and meaning. Live intentionally to make every day count.
• Chase Dreams: Set goals, like traveling on a budget or trying new experiences. Work or hobbies that spark joy can add purpose.
• Embrace Spirituality: Practices like prayer, meditation, or journaling can bring peace and hope, nourishing your soul.
• Celebrate Today: Savor small moments, practice self-love, and step out of your comfort zone to keep life vibrant.
5. Stay Proactive with Health
Regular checkups catch issues early, but don’t let health worries define you. Work with your chiropractor and healthcare team to stay strong and address concerns promptly. Focus on what makes you feel good—movement, nutrition, and positivity.
Final Note: Aging is a privilege, and your golden years can be some of your best! Start with one or two of these tips, and build from there. At Riverside Spine and Disc, we’re here to support your journey to a healthy, joyful life. Ask us how chiropractic care can help you move and feel your best!
