Hello, I'm Humpty. For 30 years I was Dr. Ronald Humphrey, teacher, administrator, and psychologist in the public schools of Arizona, North Carolina, and California. My doctorate is in Educational Psychology, the Ed.D degree. Teaching and learning is my specialty. I have found both to be very important in successful aging.

Since retiring I have been busy renovating properties, traveling, horseback riding and I even married after 46 years of solo living.  One of my goals has been to stay healthy, active and happy. So far so good! 

A few years ago I decided to formalize my lifestyle pattern into a program that I could pass on to others who might have a similar interest. My research led me to believe it might be possible to add an extra decade to our lives by making lifestyle changes such as diet, exercise, stress reduction, and getting better sleep. Science seems to back this idea.  I have formalized my system into the AGER+LEARNS Decade Challenge [A+LDC].  You can find the details in my You Tube Channel. After completing the A+LDC program you are eligible for the Certificate awarding a Positive AGER Lifestyle, the PAL. This website is designed to provide information, support and other resources for current PALs and those in the process of "learning" to acquire one. It is also going to keep you up to date on research and events in the rapidly expanding field of longevity science and practice. 

As a side angle, it provides me with an opportunity and venue to carry out and display a life-long creative writing goal. You will find that in AGERville, The Series. Probably unlike any novel you have ever seen, if my hyperlinked ebook of fiction and nonfiction, and even science fiction, could be considered a novel. It's probably more like a type of"streaming"using words rather than video.  I also try to answer questions about the A+LDC and my approach toward longevity in the FAQ section.

Take a look around and see if anything is of interest to you as you consider constructing your  triple span bridge to longevity of lifespan, healthspan, and "happyspan".[ I made than last one up] Watch for it to go viral! You saw it here first!
