Simple habits for a healthier life after 60
Getting older doesn’t mean settling for low energy, poor sleep, or constant aches.
But it does mean the body responds differently than it once did.
60 Starts Now is about simple, realistic habits that support health, recovery, and clarity in your 60s and beyond — without extremes, fear, or complicated rules.
This site focuses on what tends to work now, not what worked decades ago.
