Office On Repeat #3 🌻🌻🌻

Sometimes we look back on a memory and feel frustrated with how we responded or handled a situation. I usually ask the person in my office to think about how old they were in the memory we are discussing. Then I suggest that we revisit that younger self and share a few thoughts or even a hug. What would you say to your younger self right now? It could be you at 40, 30, 20 or 10 or all of these.

Office On Repeat #2 🌻🌻🌻

When someone explains a strong emotional reaction to a person or recent event, I often ask them to explain what happened in detail. After I have an understanding of what happened, I ask if they remember feeling the same way in the past? Then we talk through that memory to see if we can find clues to underlying, unexpressed thoughts and emotions.

Office On Repeat #1🌻🌻🌻

Have you ever stopped mid-sentence and asked yourself what you notice in your body? This is good practice…

Some answers I’ve heard recently….

* My jaw is tight.
* I’m feeling nauseous.
* My chest is tight.
* My body feels heavy.
* My head hurts.

Try this and notice how your body responds to different emotions.

Lessons From Aunty #9 👵🏾🪴🫶🏾🏋🏾‍♀️🩷

There is so much advice about how to age gracefully. I think one valuable lesson I’ve learned from Lalitha Aunty is that you have to keep trying new things…. Whether it’s moving to a new place, trying out different foods, meeting new people or engaging in new activities… Stepping out of your comfort zone on a regular basis is good for the mind, body and soul. I see that everytime I visit Aunty at Abe’s Garden.

Lessons From Aunty #8 👵🏾🪴🫶🏾🏋🏾‍♀️🩷

There are times when someone presents a change to you and you immediately imagine all of your worst fears. We all had misconceptions of what a senior living community was. Once we toured Abe’s Garden and met the administration and staff, our worst fears dissolved. That takes a while.

Lessons From Aunty #7 👵🏾🪴🫶🏾🏋🏾‍♀️🩷

Aunty regularly mentions that she feels safe at Abe’s Garden. Before she moved there, I do not think she felt unsafe. I just think that as you age, it’s so good to be in an environment that is designed to support the natural aging process. A lot of thought has gone into the design of each room. There is safety without compromising privacy.

Lessons From Aunty #6 👵🏾🪴🫶🏾🏋🏾‍♀️🩷

Look around you now? Do you have too much stuff? Is there something you could get rid of? Aunty and I both learned together that it’s good to have a plan to declutter and downsize so that when it’s time to move, the transition will be easier.

Lessons From Aunty #5 👵🏾🪴🫶🏾🏋🏾‍♀️🩷

For the last 25 years, I watched my parents and Lalitha Aunty practice yoga on a regular basis. They frequently shared that they could tell that the yoga classes in their 50’s and 60’s helped them in their 70’s and 80’s. When Aunty moved to Abe’s Garden, she began Tai Chi classes. She reports improved sleep, mood, strength and flexibility. I have seen this myself! Do you have a yoga or tai chi practice?

Lessons From Aunty #4 👵🏾🪴🫶🏾🏋🏾‍♀️🩷

I’ve been so impressed by the effect of word search and jigsaw puzzles on Aunty and her friends. One day Lalitha aunty shared that she could tell that her ability to complete puzzles had improved significantly over time and that it made her feel better. Are you giving your brain a good workout with puzzles?

Lessons From Aunty #3 👵🏾🪴🫶🏾🏋🏾‍♀️🩷

You think life is going to go one way and then it completely changes. A death, a fall, a move, a rejection or even a new job. Being able to accept change is a life skill we practice in all decades of life.

Lessons From Aunty #2 👵🏾🪴🫶🏾🏋🏾‍♀️🩷

Lalitha Aunty, my Mom and I have lived in the same community of friends for decades. It’s easy to assume that you will have the same friends forever which has been true for our family. I don’t think it was on Aunty’s radar to try to make new friends at this stage of her life. But she stepped out of her comfort zone and started having fun with new friends. That caught my attention and I now assume that I’ll have my forever friends but it is a possibility at any stage of life that I may have to make new friends in a new community.
