One of the things I noticed after moving to The Villages is how easy it is to find people who share something important to you. It might be golf, pickleball, cards, volunteering, a neighborhood group or your faith.
That connection may be more important to healthy aging than we realize.
The seventh principle in our Blue Zone-inspired series is “Belong.” For JT, that means his Christian faith and being part of a faith community. He believes taking care of ourselves isn't just about the body. The mind and spirit matter too.
I think The Villages gives us plenty of opportunities to belong. Michelle and I have our church, friends, neighbors and groups of people who have become part of our lives. You don't have to look very far around here to find someone willing to welcome you.
Maybe that's one of the overlooked benefits of living here. We stay busy, but more importantly, we stay connected.
Where do you find your sense of belonging?
