Fall brings crisp air and shorter days, which can sometimes make it harder for seniors to stay active and connected. With a little planning, the season can remain safe, healthy, and joyful.
At As Life Goes On, we encourage:
🍂 Enjoying the Outdoors Safely – Take advantage of autumn days with short walks or time outside enjoying the foliage. Just watch for uneven ground and fallen leaves, which can be slippery.
👥 Staying Social – Autumn is a wonderful time to connect. Join group activities, share stories over cider, or participate in community events to help prevent isolation.
💪 Boosting Wellness – Shorter days can affect mood and energy. Light exercise, engaging activities, and balanced meals with seasonal produce like squash, apples, and root veggies help maintain overall health.
❄️ Planning Ahead for Winter – Fall is a natural time to prepare for the colder months, when driving, shoveling, and home upkeep become more challenging. Extra support can make all the difference.
A few simple habits can help loved ones stay healthy and happy all season long!
