I felt I’d just be writing words and continued to feel unclear. I felt agitated and didn’t know why. Of course I had lots of ideas about why I felt frustrated, blaming different circumstances.

It’s true, and substantiated now by a study from Stanford. A 21-year study of senior citizens, led by the Albert Einstein College of Medicine in NYC. They studied cognitive activities such as reading books, writing, doing crossword puzzles, playing cards and musical instruments.
