This fun, informative and engaging talk presents a crash-course in health living via a Blue Zone lifestyle. Listeners are challenged to account for their current health status using a fast-paced personal checklist and then encouraged to aim for a healthy 100 through inspiring, real-life examples of remarkably active and healthy seniors. Clay DeStefano is an award-winning writer and artist currently serving as the Executive Director of the Price Center, a unique, non-profit community center in downtown San Marcos Texas. His personal wellness and aging philosophies are derived from life experience, including 30 years in the health care industry, which led to a book he published in 2016 titled “HealthScare: Confessions of a Hospital Spin Doctor.” Under Clay’s direction, the Price Center has broadened its focus and outcomes using the arts and Blue Zone concepts that include healthy and creative activities offered within an intergenerational, multi-cultural, and historic venue. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
