how to remain active? well mentally active..

I watch lectures and a lot of long form information type videos on YouTube. I am also always looking things up, whenever I think of things which is multiple times especially a day. I ve always tried to learn something new every day for decades.

I do various puzzles, such as sudoku. I try to read but I read slowly.

There is also work.

Unfortunately I'm unemployed at moment so don't have work to keep mentally active 

Not thought of watching lectures or long form information videos! Will have to think at what would interest me and give a go

I watched/listened to stuff on dinosaurs from New Scientist on YouTube today while watering my orchids and other plants. Here's a link to get you going. Over 2 hours. There are other shorter ones.

I also watch lots on geology.

There are good history ones too. You could start with The rest is history, it is a popular podcast
