As DJ says, reading is good. I think though that choosing enjoyable, interesting topics is as important as the quality of material.

Mathematics is another. When I was your (darkearthgoddess's) age, I used to picture projections of rotating hypercubes in my mind. I found it interesting to see an accurate rendition on Andromeda recently.

Chess is another. Many games exercise the ability to reason. Backgammon, checkers, mastermind, go, othello etc.

Crosswords and other word puzzles are other ways to exercise the mind.

Writing is another. I have always hated to write anything down, but the ability to express oneself is an important mental task both in writing and verbally.

Public speaking and debating are also good ways to exercise the mind as is theater.

Music instruction -- any instrument -- or even art/music appreciation.

Do a lot of whatever you enjoy and a little of whatever you do not enjoy.

Cheers,
Bob

Homer, I won't do your job for you, but I will give you a hint: You don't need to type the E and the S -- just type Y.

Sorry Bob, I think you lost me on that one. ???

bob is refering to the simpsons episode where homer becomes obese to get worker's comphensation so he can work from home using the computer.

"Vent radioactive gas?"  [types] Y-E-S.
"Sound alertness horn?"  Y-E-S. [horn sounds in the distance]
"Decalcify calcium ducts?"  Well, give me a Y, give me a...Hey!
All I have to type is Y.  :D
