"Nudging Towards Better Well-Being: A Week of Brain Boosts and Saying No"

This week's Well+Being newsletter covers the impact of nudge words on positive change, the link between exercise and brain volume, the importance of sexual health checkups for older adults, and offers joy snacks including insights from a 93-year-old rower and the best photographs from The Washington Post. The top nudge words for 2024 include "balance," "resilience," "present," "well-being," and "thrive." The newsletter also encourages readers to try the nudge word generator and emphasizes the value of thoughtfulness and intention in choosing a word.
