Seniors in the BuildingWhat is a Senior?Do we think of ourselves as seniors? What does the word senior mean to us? The word senior when applied to older people can have a negative connotation, but its origins have more positive, stately meanings. Youth culture, capitalism, privilege and lumping everyone over 65 as a senior may all contribute to the negative connotation. The boomer generation has redefined what being a senior means. They are working longer and demanding more, including having higher expectations of the health care system. They are taking a more active approach to staying healthy, active and involved, redefining what retirement means. Elders in...2025-07-3043 min
Seniors in the BuildingAre We Having Fun Yet? Seniors and FunHaving fun elevates our spirit and connects us to others. Keeping fun in our lives as we get older can be more of a challenge when things happen to derail us. It helps to have good role models, intentionally taking moments to laugh every day, and not taking ourselves too seriously. Being open to new ways to have fun as we age can take the place of old ways. From scatological humour with grandchildren to having fun in church, looking for ways to uplift our spirits in the joy of community is critical to being vibrant and alive as...2025-07-2340 min
Seniors in the BuildingLearning (and Unlearning) later in lifeOur topic is introduced by a reading from The Wisdom of Morrie: Living and Aging Creatively and Joyfully, written by Morrie Schwartz and edited by his son Rob. Morrie invites us to make a choice in our later years to grow and change, in short to continue to learn. Our conversation explores the ‘unlearning’ we may need to do in order to grow, such as throwing off our binary thinking and seeing life as messy instead of black and white. We explore traditional education and how it is different from the type of learning that fits for us now. We t...2025-07-1641 min
Seniors in the BuildingGratitudeAging is complex and sometimes gratitude is difficult to practice. Our conversation about gratitude exposes some of the barriers to practicing gratitude as well as the opportunities. Worry, anxiety, pain and loss of function all get in the way of being grateful. Yet, there are natural, familiar ways to incorporate gratitude in our lives that can occur both spontaneously and intentionally, without feeling forced. Staying grounded in our bodies, or our faith, nature, or the present moment all help us to find our gratitude and to stop the ruminating thoughts that keep us from enjoying life. It is a...2025-07-0944 min

Seniors in the BuildingWhere We Come From: Roots and ShootsWe begin by sharing our experiences of growing up in rural communities with extended family around and continue to reference the influence of extended family throughout the conversation. It is in exact contrast to the experience we had raising our own children and being separated from extended family by either distance or our parents’ death. We touch on genetics and how familial features and health care issues manifest. Exploring the gifts given to us by our parents, education had a huge impact. Strongly encouraged to get further education we work through the reasons for that and the consequences, as we...2025-07-0249 min
Seniors in the BuildingSeniors and TechnologyStarting with a clip from our first attempt at a podcast, we marvel at how far we have come in understanding the technology, which sets the tone for our conversation. We have seen many changes in technology in our lifetimes and the themes of adapting and learning are paramount to the discussion. How do we learn new technology? Why might we resist? What happens when technology fails, and we must trouble shoot? What are the risks of using technology? We explore many aspects of technology from how it’s used in the medical field, in car manufacturing and in ac...2025-06-2540 min
Seniors in the BuildingBeauty and Truth: What Inspires Us?Things we thought would inspire us in retirement, don’t and what we now find inspiring is surprising. That runs the gamut from thinking about hockey differently and ditching previous hobbies for new ones to the exploration of quantum physics and following Chris Hadfield’s observations from space. The gift of time allows us to explore our interests at length and to delve into a particular project or explore a museum for as long as we want. The pandemic had an influence on how our interests developed, with some positive things emerging despite the downsides. Pain has an impact on w...2025-06-1846 min
Seniors in the BuildingDeath, Dying and Our LegacyThoughts of death are more frequent in our seventies, and the number of years ahead of us are fewer. We are paying more attention to what we do before we die, and how we want to be remembered. We recall the division of material goods from our parents and how much we should involve our children in the task of divestment of goods. We discuss creative ways to leave a legacy. We also discuss death based on cultural anthropologist Ernest Becker's book "The Denial of Death". The book suggests that we live in subconscious fear of our...2025-06-1151 min
Seniors in the BuildingSpirituality and Our Search for MeaningSpirituality can take on deeper significance in later life, becoming a vital source of meaning, comfort and resilience. It can be a very broad topic, taking in many different religious and meditative traditions. But what does it mean for us? We reflect on our lives, relationships with our families and the broader community, connecting to something outside ourselves and finding peaceful spaces. We explore how spirituality can become a search for ways to make sense of our lives and our world. We talk about activism and how taking a stand on an issue can bring spiritual moments. Spirituality can...2025-06-0443 min
Seniors in the BuildingFoods We Used to Eat and Other Food TalesFood is essential to life, and we thought it was important to talk about our relationship to food now. We found ourselves remembering big family gatherings for harvest or holidays, and the wonderful food we enjoyed in our Canadian, German, English and Scandinavian traditions. We explore where some of our attitudes towards food came from and how that has shaped our eating habits today. We also discuss how our eating habits have changed as we've gotten older, impacted by health conditions, a desire to eat healthier, and through the influence of other cultures.We converse about who...2025-05-2841 min
Seniors in the BuildingNurturingWe explore nurturing - social, physical, spiritual, cognitive, emotional and familial - as we move through the space between independence and vulnerability. Once taken-for-granted routines like driving or medical checkups now demand personal advocacy and initiative. Nurturing takes effort - and raises the question, "Are we enough?".We also reflect on how aging is shared with our children and grandchildren, and how mutual care can be renegotiated. Finally, we ask: How do we nurture ourselves as we age?2025-05-2151 min
Seniors in the BuildingI Thought Getting Older Would Take LongerFinding ourselves suddenly older can be startling. People tend to respond to us in a different way, and we see ourselves differently. We thought we had more time to think about our future. Now it is here!We begin the conversation with the emerging political climate and how false news, climate change denial and other challenging issues evident today affect our outlook and our future. What sort of planning for the future or hope do we see for the future? 2025-05-2149 min
Seniors in the BuildingSeniors Manage Fear and AnxietyIn the previous podcast we got a bit sidetracked in our conversation about coping with fear and anxiety. We decided to continue with that topic. When we are faced with threats, what is our "fight or flight" response? And what about a "tend and befriend" response? What are the things that may create fear and anxiety for older people? What causes fear and anxiety for us? We explore these questions and share the ways that we deal with our own fear and anxiety. Imagination, resilience, creativity, critical thinking, entrepreneurship, joyfulness and empathy all enter the conversation. 2025-05-1550 min
Seniors in the BuildingWho Are We Now That We Are Retired? Identity Anxiety A conversation that started out as how do we cope with fear and anxiety, became an exploration of who we are now as we are growing older. We d0 talk about how we alleviate stress in our daily lives. We share some of the past experiences that have shaped our current strategies, including silent retreats, forest bathing, and learning how to just 'be'. But the question of who we are now, since we are no longer working, is prominent in the discussion2025-05-0846 min
