The benefits of remaining active are no secret, but how do we make it easier for ourselves and older adults? By finding, or even creating social events such as yoga or meditation classes, aquatic therapy, and even activities to keep our brains active like tabletop games or brain teasers we can make the first steps in the right direction. Part of making this possible is even before getting out of the house or your living space you think of activities that would interest you. Once you have an idea of what you might be interested in you can search for them online or go to your local library, or rec center to check out what is up on the community board. To help you stay active with your selected activity or activities you should try to make routines for healthy eating, how to spend your time and keep a positive mindset. None of these are requirements in trying to get out and be active, but they can encourage you to keep going at it. Some of these could just be goals you set to help guide you towards healthier habits rather than dictate how you go about your day.
