s we age, we require more attention and assistance. It’s up to us to accept the fact our senior loved ones can no longer do things like they could in the past. It’s also up to us to seek out proper care and assistance to help them live a life of dignity and purpose. As seniors experience the milestones of aging, they can often feel lonely. It can be tough to accept that a lot of the things they once knew as the norm are now changing, and often it can seem like it’s happening all at once. Seniors who are isolated in their own homes may start to experience a decline in happiness, which in turn can lead to depression. Depression promotes a lack of motivation to be active and connect with others, which are vital keys to staying healthy and achieving joy. It’s important that we take note of these trends before they start becoming the new standard for each day.
