Need Relief from Ongoing Stress?

Try these techniques

A

s we get older, life changes such as retirement, health problems or even changing our residence can bring unwanted stress. If the stress lasts a long time, it can lead to – or worsen – a range of health problems including digestive disorders, headaches, sleep disorders, and other symptoms. But relaxation techniques can often provide relief.

Relaxation techniques are designed to produce the body's natural relaxation response, characterized by slower breathing, lower blood pressure, and a feeling of calm and well-being. Stress

management programs commonly include relaxation techniques.

Relaxation techniques have also been studied for anxiety, depression, insomnia, and other conditions.

Relaxation techniques include the following: Autogenic Training In autogenic training, you learn to concentrate on the physical sensations of warmth, heaviness, and relaxation in different parts of your body.

Biofeedback-Assisted Relaxation Biofeedback techniques measure body functions and give you

information about them so that you can learn to control them.

Biofeedback-assisted relaxation uses electronic devices to teach you to produce changes in your body that are associated with relaxation, such as reduced muscle tension.

Deep Breathing or Breathing Exercises This technique involves focusing on taking slow, deep, even breaths.

Guided Imagery For this technique, people are taught to focus on pleasant images to replace negative or stressful feelings. Guided imagery may be self-directed or led by a practitioner or a recording.

Progressive Relaxation This technique, also called Jacobson relaxation or progressive muscle relaxation, involves tightening and relaxing various muscle groups. Progressive relaxation is often combined with guided imagery and breathing exercises.

Self-Hypnosis In self-hypnosis programs, people are taught to produce the relaxation response when prompted by a phrase or nonverbal cue (called a “suggestion”).

What the Science Says About the Safety and Side Effects of Relaxation Techniques Relaxation techniques are generally considered safe for healthy people. However, occasionally, people report negative experiences such as increased anxiety, intrusive thoughts, or fear of losing control.

There have been rare reports that certain relaxation techniques might cause or worsen symptoms in people with epilepsy or certain 12 AUG US T 2 016 • SE N IOR L IF E S T Y L E

psychiatric conditions, or with a history of abuse or trauma. People with heart disease should talk to their health care provider before doing progressive muscle relaxation.

NCCIH-Funded Research NCCIH is supporting a variety of studies on relaxation techniques.

Examples of topics currently being studied include • The use of relaxation techniques and other complementary approaches for back pain in realworld health care settings • Guided imagery and relaxation response training for pain management in hospitalized patients Who Teaches Relaxation Techniques?

A variety of professionals, including physicians, psychologists, social workers, nurses, and complementary health practitioners, may teach relaxation techniques. Also, people sometimes learn the simpler relaxation techniques on their own.

More to Consider If you have severe or long-lasting symptoms of any kind, see your health care provider. You might have a condition that needs to be treated promptly. For example, if depression or anxiety persists, it's important to seek help from a qualified health care professional.

Tell all your health care providers about any complementary or integrative health approaches you use. Give them a full picture of what you do to manage your health. This will help ensure coordinated and safe care.

rowing old is a new and increasing challenge, as every month more than a quarter-million Americans turn 65. Many of them will need to find quality care and assisted living is going to be a major solution.

Davis Zavik understands that "the quality of answers we get is in direct proportion to the quality of questions we ask" which is why she compiled all of the important questions in her resourceful guidebook titled Assisted Living: Everything you need to know to compassionately care for your elderly parent. Your parents or you and your spouse may want to leave behind the care and maintenance responsibilities of a home and move into an Assisted Living Facility (ALF). Nearly one million Americans consider an ALF their home.

Whether you're looking for a lot of support, a little support, or anything in between, Davis explains that today's facilities offer plenty of choices. With fresh perspectives on the world of assisted living, Davis' book has earned a reputation for putting to rest conventional assumptions about senior care.

www.vall ey rev ue .co m

There are more than 40 million caregivers in the US. Folks who wish to assist but don't have an understanding of what is needed for managing elderly challenges. The book will help you be able to gather information required to make well-informed decisions. Davis' book acts to support you navigating the multifaceted, overwhelming design of today's American senior care system by providing a complete understanding of what to look for, what to look out for and the right questions to ask facility administrators when looking for a place for their elderly family.

Davis is regarded as a passionate advocate for the elderly and prides herself in bringing dignity back to aging. Her book provides a road map to care and is a most valuable contribution to prevent the care crisis that is ever so present in families everywhere. Read it for yourself, your family, and your friends.

For more information: 'Assisted Living'

by Davis Zavik can be found on Amazon (hard cover copy, E-book), Audible as an audiobook and at www.alfliving.com.

Celebrating a Half-Century of the Carroll County Farm Museum

M A R Y L A N D

By Auni Gelles

T

his month, the Carroll County Farm Museum will mark a significant milestone: fifty years of educating visitors about rural life.

The 140-acre complex southeast of downtown Westminster tells two distinct chapters in the county’s history.

The first chapter is the site’s original use. The heart of the campus, a 30-room brick house built in 1852, served as the county almshouse for 113 years. The area’s least fortunate residents found shelter here in exchange for their labor on the working farm. This institution operated during Carroll County’s earliest years all the way into the mid-20th century. Most of the structures built during this era still stand, including a blacksmith’s shop, springhouse, smokehouse, icehouse, and summer kitchen.

The second chapter began when the Farm Museum opened to the public on August 13, 1965. It was among the first of its kind in Maryland, pioneering the popular www.vall ey rev ue .co m

field of agritourism. Today, the main house is furnished as a late 19th century residence. A highlight of the museum is the Marlin K. Hoff Memorial Barn, built in the 1790s and carefully moved to the campus in 2009. Master craftspeople demonstrate historic trades such as tinsmithing, spinning, weaving, chair caning, quilting, and basket making.

Visitors can glimpse into the county’s agricultural past throughout the working farm. A team of oxen, who came to the museum last year, show how locals managed their farming operations in the late 18th century.

The museum hosts school programs, an annual living history encampment, and special events throughout the year including the popular Maryland Wine Festival in September. The Farm Museum is a natural choice to host “The Way We Worked,” a Smithsonian traveling exhibition, next summer.
