5 Ways Older Adults Can Reduce Stress

Description:

When our body senses danger, our brain immediately sends signals to the muscles and these get tightened. At the same time, adrenal glands start to release stress hormones. Adrenaline and cortisol are known as stress hormones that quicken our breathing, improve stamina, increase strength and enhance focus. This is a reaction commonly known as the stress response. Now, as people get older, their ability to manage stress often reduces. This evokes problems like lowered immunity system, heart problems vision and hearing ability loss, digestive issues, and dental issues. Nevertheless, there are some tried and tested ways that older adults can reduce stress.

Stress is often connected with wellness. The
first step is to maintain a healthy body. For
that, you can exercise regularly and eat a
balanced diet. Seniors are often disturbed with
health issues that impact their psyche and make
them scrupulous. If they maintain a healthy
physique, lots of their problems will
automatically get reduced. They will be able to
enjoy life freely which is key to reducing
stress.

Involvement in community events
Volunteer for a cause
In such a time, people need companionship. Being
involved in various community events will keep
them occupied. That way, they wont have much
time to worry about lots of things and become
stressed.
If you are not involved in any job, you can stand
up for a cause that you have always believed in.
It will keep you occupied. This is an extension
of the point we mentioned above. If you dont
have many friends or community around you, find
a cause. Start volunteering and you can find
lots of people like you are there. You can feel
connected with them and build a sense of
belonging. This is extremely crucial for a
healthy and stress-free life.
02
Meditation
Meditation is very helpful for coping up with
stress. You can join a meditation center to get
inspired by others.
