Holistic aging is somewhat of a hot topic these days, but what it boils down to is a philosophy that looks at all aspects of a person as they age, including their mind, body and soul.
As people age, they can be fearful of frailty and decline. However keeping an older adult’s mind, body and social life active can prevent or even reverse frailty, experts have said. And those who assist older adults are in a unique position to help them figure out what activities will work best.
A key to holistic aging is finding simple activities that older adults find pleasurable or enjoyable. To learn more about how to help older adults protect the mind, body and soul, sign up for this month’s webinar.
