RPC Lesson Plan
Improving the Quality of Life: A Senior Citizen’s Approach

Introduction
Narrative: I woke up this morning to the sound of a rooster crowing. I then raced to the bathroom. After fifteen minutes I rushed to the kitchen table. Upon sitting in my chair, I was served breakfast. The breakfast was two over easy eggs and four strips of bacon. Also served to me was a large glass of whole milk. My white bread toast was there too. It was covered with thick butter. After gulping it down I raced out the door. Somewhere in this rush I had thrown on my clothes. I was wearing a black tie, white shirt, black pants and polished shoes.
I opened the front door and ran to my car. I was proud of my hand washed car. My 1959 Chevrolet Biscayne reflected the bright sunlight. I drove quickly to work.
Upon arriving at Sears Roebuck, I reported for work. I picked up my cash drawer. I pressed the no sale key on my mechanical cash register. The drawer popped open with a bell sound. I was ready to start work.
I then heard a beeping sound. I realized then, fifty years had gone by since then.
Fifty years had gone by and there were many changes in my life. I then realized how I had adapted to this change. These changes could be good or bad. My quality of life depended on my choices. Let us discuss our choices to improve the quality of our life now.
The quality of life depends upon how we unify body, mind and soul.
So let us review how we woke up this morning. Including our schedule and our thoughts for today.

Body: The world has really changed. By adapting to the changes in our life, we can improve the quality of it.
Note: This is a group discussion about changes in diet, exercise, technology and our perspective of life.
Note 2: The audience will be involved. The audience as a group will relate how they cope with these changes.

Summary: Our quality of life can be improved by coping with change. How do we do this?





We can observe and learn how these changes can affect us in improving our lifestyle.

If you think about disaster, you will get it. Brood about death and you hasten your demise. Think positively and masterfully, with confidence and faith, and life becomes more secure, more fraught with action, richer in achievement and experience.
-- Edward Rickenba

A Better Life

You have to count on living every single day in a way you believe will make you feel good about your life - so that if it were over tomorrow, you'd be content with yourself.

FOOD ...Kale Seniors need good food. GOOD FOOD, GOOD Mood!

Kale Nutrition Facts

Here are some great reasons to include Kale in your regular diet:
Kale provides an excellent source of vitamins B6 and C, carotenes, and manganese.
It is also a very good source of vitamins B1, B2, and E, fiber, iron, copper, and
calcium.

Kale has almost three times as much calcium as phosphorus. This is a beneficial ratio
because high phosphorus consumption has been linked to osteoporosis since it
reduces the utilization and promotes the excretion of calcium. Kale and collard greens
exhibit the same anticancer properties as other members of the cabbage family.




Your Daily Recipe!

1 block of cubed extra firm tofu
6 large kale leaves chopped to bite size

2) After frying tofu, remove from pan, add more olive oil, and cook kale until soft and welted.

3) Add additional spices: salt, pepper, and garlic. Mix tofu and kale and serve hot.

Humor...

Why was the employee fired from the orange juice factory?
He couldn't concentrate.

Through humor, you can soften some of the worst blows that life delivers. And once you find laughter, no matter how painful your situation might be, you can survive it.

Food Tonatoes Good food, Good mood!

Sweet Tomato Nutrition Facts

Lycopene is well known as a preventer of prostate cancer, which makes tomatoes high on the healthy food list for men.

Lycopene is not just important for men though. It is a powerful antioxidant and as such helps to protect the cells in our bodies from damage.

More facts about tomatoes? The vitamin B6, niacin, potassium and folate found in abundance in tomatoes are potent protectors against heart disease.

Niacin can lower high cholesterol levels and potassium has been shown to lower high blood pressure and to reduce the risk of heart disease.

Vitamin B6 and folate also work to convert the homocysteine in our bodies into harmless molecules. High levels of homocysteine are associated with an increased risk of heart attack and stroke.

The fiber in tomatoes also helps lower cholesterol levels, helps prevent colon cancer and helps to keep blood sugars at a low level.

Tomatoes are a source of riboflavin which has been shown to be helpful for migraine sufferers by reducing the frequency of their headaches.

The facts about tomatoes definitely point to this fruit/vegetable as a nutrient powerhouse and a super food to be enjoyed as often as possible.
