As we age, we begin to lose muscle mass, bone density, and balance. Strength training helps slow that loss and even rebuilds strength. It supports healthier aging by improving mobility and protecting joints, and it also helps to reduce the risk of falling while supporting heart and brain health.

It’s never too late to start strength training. Even a few sessions each week can make a meaningful difference at any age. If you’re interested in incorporating simple strength moves into your routine, consider:

• Chair squats
• Wall push-ups
• Resistance band exercises
• Light dumbbell or household-weight lifts
• Standing balance exercises

Be sure to consult your healthcare provider before starting any program.

Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) is a type of depression linked to changes in the seasons, most often beginning in fall or winter when daylight decreases. It’s believed to be related to reduced sunlight affecting the body’s internal clock and mood-regulating chemicals.

Symptoms of SAD can include low energy, persistent sadness, changes in sleep or appetite, difficulty concentrating, and feelings of hopelessness. But there are ways to help prevent or lessen the effects of it. For starters, try to get out in the sunlight daily. Even on cloudy days, outdoor light is brighter than indoor lighting. If you can’t get outside, sit by a window.

In addition, exposing yourself to light therapy, especially in the morning, can help as well. Light therapy lamps can be purchased through numerous retailers that are designed to mimic natural sunlight with bright, UV-filtered light.

As with any health concern, however, always seek the advice of your health professional.

Make every movement count this New Year. Stretching does more than improve flexibility; it supports longevity and helps maintain independence as you age. Regular stretching boosts circulation, strengthens muscles and joints, reduces inflammation, and helps maintain balance, coordination, and mobility for daily activities.

Even small, consistent routines can make a big difference in staying active, independent, and engaged for years to come.

Holiday get-togethers are fun, but germs spread fast. Keep everyone safe with simple steps:

• Wash your hands often with soap and warm water for at least 20 seconds. Handwashing doesn’t just kill germs; it lifts and removes them from your skin. Soap traps dirt, oils, and microbes, and running water washes them away. Rubbing your hands and drying them thoroughly makes this even more effective.
• Disinfect high-touch surfaces like doorknobs, tables, and remotes.
• Avoid sharing cups or utensils.
• Keep sick individuals separate when possible.

Simple habits such as handwashing, sanitizing, and thoughtful distancing can help you enjoy the holidays safely!

If you prefer working out indoors, however, create a small workout space in your house or considering joining a gym or group fitness class. Throughout the day, take stairs or short indoor walks. Do gentle stretches or squats while waiting for coffee or meals. Schedule short activity breaks throughout the day.

‘Tis the season for celebrating and decorating, but it’s also when home-related accidents rise. Each year, thousands of individuals visit emergency rooms for preventable injuries that can be avoided with some simple safety tips:

• Inspect ladders before use. Place on level ground, wear slip-resistant shoes, and avoid overreaching or standing on the top step.
• Keep fresh trees watered and away from heat, or use fire-resistant artificial trees. Check tree lights for damage, choose UL-approved strands, and unplug decorations before bedtime or when leaving home.
• Keep decorations, cords, and candles out of reach of children and pets. Secure walkways, and use clips instead of nails for hanging lights.

By staying mindful, you can enjoy the holidays while keeping you, your family, and your home safe.
