Dementia is a general term for loss of memory, language, problem-solving and other thinking abilities that are severe enough to interfere with daily life. There is a lot we can do to keep ourselves cognitively healthy. For us baby boomers information and awareness is critical.

Being able to exercise  your body  in your later  years is a gift, a celebration. So celebrate.

"A healthy person has a thousand wishes, a sick person only one."   Agnes Karll-Schwester

My best life began at 70. I'm 76 now and enjoying every second. I have no ills, no aches and no pains. I take no medication and have no limitations. As I am fond of saying "It's never too late." 

This was like a therapy session. My voice started to crack when I mention the look on my mother's face when she saw what her oldest son had done to himself. 

Oh, what I put that  poor woman through. God forgive me. Anyway, that's the story in all its gory detail. 

You'll probably never look at yogurt the same way again for the rest of your life. For that, I apologize. Kinda.  :)

My name is Bob O’Hearn aka The Enlightened Rogue

And I want to share  my story and what has worked for me to get into the best shape of my life starting at 70.  

I’m am an entrepreneur, a content creator and a compulsive communicator. I have been sharing my forward thinking ideas and solutions in social media for decades.

I developed most of my online skills in big pharma sales and marketing while acting as a territory manager in the field. 

I developed and managed web sites and newsletters for nuclear cardiology customers of Dupont and Bristol Myers Squibb.

I was soon promoted and brought in-house to run my own multimedia department.

I am an idea generator. I write books, music, articles and blogs. I have been posting “The Enlightened Rogue Blog” for ten years as well as Enlightened Rogue Fitness.

I script, produce, edit and deliver professional corporate video to train, communicate and enlighten. 

I am an accomplished writer, video producer, editor and graphic designer.

I studied music at the Berklee College of Music for guitar and piano and also at the Chef’s Training Institute to be a professional chef. I spent 25 years in busy kitchens. 

I have taken the stage at Catch A Rising Star and Stitches comedy clubs. Fearless or foolish, you be the judge. 

I am also a passionate health and fitness writer, certified in personal training, weight loss, nutrition, and senior fitness. I train most of my my clients online.

My fitness journey has been remarkable in that six years ago I was severely overweight and addicted to prescription meds and alcohol. I had to go into a VA rehab to shake my demons. 

I call the process from “Detox to Reeboks.” I am currently writing that book. 

All of which I share with my clients to help them to reach their goals.
