Improving the Lives of Seniors
There are many ways to keep the seniors in your life happy and active and to make sure they are living their best lives.
- Keep Them Involved – It’s always important to keep your family elders involved in family matters. If you have children, make sure your parents are involved in their rearing even if it’s just for a visit. Involve them in family decisions and go to them for parenting and relationship advice. You will likely find that they have a lot more insight to give than you expected.
- Keep the Brain Active – For senior citizens, it is crucial that they keep their brain active. Read a book, take up a new hobby, learn something new, or simply do a crossword puzzle. Learning and mastering an instrument is another great way to keep the mind sharp.
- Stay Social – The last thing you want to do as a senior citizen is to isolate yourself. This can lead to feelings of depression. As much as possible, stay social and try to make new friends and connections.
- Exercise – Exercise benefits the brain and body as well as promotes feelings of high self-esteem. You don’t have to run marathons or lift heavy weights. It’s more important to find a sustainable form of exercise that fits your physical limitations.
- Mentorship Programs – There are many programs that connect seniors with people who could benefit from their wisdom, experience and companionship. These programs are excellent not only for helping the community; but also for maintaining that all-important sense of purpose for seniors.
