Baton Rouge General Offers Tips for Aging Gracefully

Baton Rouge, La. – We are all getting older, but having another birthday shouldn’t put a stop to living your best life. Wednesday, June 20, Baton Rouge General Nurse Practitioner Tiffany Simon will offer helpful advice for aging gracefully through your 60s, 70s, 80s and beyond.

The noon session at BRG’s Bluebonnet campus will include an exercise demonstration, advice on healthy eating and sleeping habits, and other daily activities that promote physical and emotional wellness.

“Aging doesn’t have to mean settling for aches and pains,” said Simon. "Making healthy food choices, stretching, and staying active can help physical and mental wellbeing at any age – but especially as we get older."

Lunch will be provided and the event is free but because space is limited, attendees should reserve their spot at brgeneral.org.
