The new year is the perfect time to start Journaling with your elderly loved ones.
⠀
Journaling is a mental exercise that can help fight forgetfulness and also keep us sharp in our later years.
⠀
That's why we implemented our Memory Journal program for aging adults. Our caregivers will help your loved one journal with some of these prompts.
⠀
This helps our seniors recall important times and also serves as a way to record their treasured history, preserving it for years to come.

It’s easier now more than ever to become overwhelmed with stress and anxiety.
⠀
That’s why it is so important to help your elderly loved ones take the necessary steps to keep their mental and physical health stay in tip top shape.
⠀
Consider encouraging your parent or grandparent to take part in activities that help lower feelings of stress and anxiety.
⠀
Physical activity:
• Engaging in at-home workouts in order to avoid physical contact with others
• Take a walk around your neighborhood (ensure proper social distancing from others on the sidewalks).
• Dancing to uplifting music
⠀
Manage depression and anxiety:
• Meditation is a great way to reduce stress and anxiety according to the CDC . Find a quiet place in your home and set a timer for a specified period. If you’ve never meditated, start off with just 3 minutes, and focus on your breathing.
• You may also want to consider taking breaks from watching, reading and listening to news related to the outbreak to help reduce anxiety and stress. Use activities such as puzzles, crosswords, coloring books, painting, reading, and games to keep you engaged.
• It’s also important to stay in contact with close friends and family during stressful situations, so check-in with your loved ones by phone, Skype, or Facetime.
⠀
Eat right:
Older adults should continue to eat healthy, well-balanced meals. You should eat a variety of fruits and vegetables every day, and limit alcohol intake and foods and drinks high in sugar, salt and saturated fat.

Sure, the holidays can be stressful. But when you’re a senior, that stress is vastly different.

Keep aware and listen to how your aging loved one is feeling.

They may feel the sorrow of lost loved ones, the frustration of not being able to help with holiday preparation like the used to, and a number of other things that may have them feeling a little off this time of year.
