You can sign up for Medicare as early as 3 months before you turn 65
Medicare eligibility begins at age 65, but you can sign up earlier to make sure your coverage starts as soon as possible. You will have a 7-month Initial Enrollment Period (IEP) that starts 3 months before the month of your 65th birthday. If you sign up during the first three months of your IEP, your Medicare coverage will kick in on the first day of your 65th birthday month. If you sign up later on in your IEP your coverage could be delayed.

☀️ The Healing Power of Morning Sunlight

A few minutes of morning sunlight is one of the simplest yet most powerful health boosters. That warm glow on your skin helps regulate your body’s internal clock, improving your sleep at night and your energy during the day. Sunlight also triggers your body to produce vitamin D — a nutrient essential for strong bones, immunity, and mood regulation.

Instead of immediately reaching for your phone, try stepping outside for 10 minutes after waking. Let your body soak in natural light, breathe deeply, and start your day grounded. Your mind, mood, and health will thank you.

Get moving

Take vitamin D if you’re deficient
Most people do not get enough vitamin D. While these widespread vitamin D inadequacies are not imminently harmful, maintaining adequate vitamin D levels can help to optimize your health by improving bone strength, reducing symptoms of depression, strengthening your immune system, and lowering your risk for cancer.
If you do not spend a lot of time in the sunlight, your vitamin D levels may be low.
If you have access, it’s a great idea to have your levels tested, so that you can correct your levels through vitamin D supplementation if necessary.

Avoid bright lights before sleep
When you’re exposed to bright lights which contain blue light wavelengths in the evening, it may disrupt your production of the sleep hormone melatonin.
Some ways to help reduce your blue light exposure is to wear blue light blocking glasses especially if you use a computer or other digital screen for long periods of time and to avoid digital screens for 30 minutes to an hour before going to be.
This can help your body better produce melatonin naturally as evening progresses, helping you sleep better.
