St. Ignatius Seniors: Stay active with physical and mental workouts

For the New Year 2026; Stay physically active with at least 30 minutes of physical activity five times a week. 

Brain exercises such as crossword puzzles, Sudoku, jigsaw puzzles, or reading are mental workouts that boost memory and problem-solving skills, reduce stress, and improve moods. But ideas are endless by taking up new hobbies like gardening, woodworking, art or volunteering. You could even organize photos, create a memory book or write a journal.
