Make it fun
The best thing about having an engaged lifestyle is that, if you choose the right activities for you, it should be a lot of fun.

I'd like to second the notion that playing board and card games can keep the mind healthy. However, this particular hobby has undergone something of a renaissance in recent years, and you will likely be able to find far better games out there than Chess, backgammon, and Scrabble. Designs range from the very simple, to the very complex.
