As life expectancy rises and more of us are likely to live well into our 80s and 90s, the question is no longer “How long can we live?” but rather “How well can we live?” .
Our LIVE2B100 initiative is built on this belief — that active ageing is not a coincidence but a conscious practice. At the heart of this practice lies G-E-N-E-S, a simple yet powerful framework that proactively focuses via a holistic approach on Gut, Exercise, Nutrition, Emotional Health and Sleep.
1. Start with Assessment: Know Your Risks Early
Longevity is a gift, but it also brings new health challenges. As we cross 60, a geriatric health risk assessment becomes essential. These assessments help detect early warning signs related to mobility, cognition, nutrition, heart health and mental wellbeing. When we identify risks ahead of time, we can take precise steps for preventive care, rather than waiting for a crisis to strike.
2. Healthy Habits for an Ageing Body
Ageing changes the way our body responds to food, stress, movement and rest – slower metabolism, reduced muscle mass, lower energy levels. Small, sustainable lifestyle changes — mindful eating, regular activity, staying socially connected, managing stress — can dramatically improve how we feel every day. Healthy habits aren’t merely routines; they are tools that help us adapt to the physical and metabolic shifts of ageing.
3. Exercise: Think Agility, Not Abs
For seniors, fitness is not about lifting heavier weights. Fitness is less about muscle building and more about agility, mobility, balance and strength.
Exercises such as brisk walking, yoga, tai chi, resistance band routines and balance drills keep joints flexible. Exercises that support posture, reduce fall risk, and increase flexibility become important. When movement becomes a daily ritual, it becomes the foundation for an active life.
4. Emotional Health: Keep the Mind Curious
An active mind is just as important as an active body. Engaging in lifelong learning — be it digital skills, music, art, puzzles, or entirely new hobbies — stimulates the brain and reduces the risk of cognitive decline. It keeps the brain stimulated and the mind young. Emotional wellbeing also thrives on meaningful connections, purpose and routines that bring joy. Emotional wellbeing is not a luxury; it is a cornerstone of longevity.
5. Sleep: The Body’s Natural Healer
Quality sleep is one of the most underrated pillars of senior health. Quality sleep is sometimes overlooked, but it is the engine of recovery. A restful night helps the body repair tissues, regulate hormones and sharpen memory. For seniors, maintaining a consistent sleep schedule and creating a calming bedtime routine are simple yet powerful steps toward better health.
6. Gut & Nutrition: Feed Your Immunity
A healthy gut is the gateway to strong immunity, better digestion and higher energy levels. As we age, the body needs adequate protein, fibre, vitamins and essential nutrients to repair cells, fight infections and remove toxins. Balanced meals, proper hydration and mindful snacking can dramatically improve overall health.
LIVE2B100: Because Healthy Ageing Is a Journey
Our GENES approach is not a diet plan or a temporary routine — it’s a lifelong commitment to ageing well.
LIVE2B100 is more than a program—it’s a movement to empower seniors to live healthier, happier, and more engaged lives. By focusing on the GENES framework, we seek to understand our bodies, nurturing our habits and prioritizing preventive care and we aim to help every senior embrace ageing with strength, clarity, and confidence.
The LIVE2B100 program builds strength, spirit and wellbeing for every senior to enjoy more years filled with mobility, clarity, purpose and joy. After all we want to add life to your years and not just years to your life.
