Traditions can make us feel young again: From cooking and gardening to sports and games, family traditions often evoke old memories and make us feel young again. Sensory memories can be particularly powerful. Whether it’s a cookie bakeoff, ballpark peanuts and hot dogs, or a singalong around the piano, family ritu als that include special sights, sounds and aromas are of ten the ones we think of most theyforareTraditionscommunities:strengthenTraditionsfondly.notjustfamilies;canalso

ness: According to a 2020 sur vey by Cigna, 61% of adults reported being lonely – a 7 percentage-point increase from 2018. That feeling was likely exacerbated by the pan demic that followed. Traditions can help to combat feelings of isolation. Consider setting up weekly video calls or trading letters and notes with relatives who live far away. Regular trips to a favorite destination, such as a lake or beach, or celebrating important holidays together every year, can provide meaningful time together.

Testimonials: My cousin and his new wife (both in their early 40’s) were visiting my mom, my sister, and I. My sister asks, “So, how did you meet?” They kind of giggled and asked each other, “Should we tell them?” They said they met through the LBYL column. My sister and I decided we would try our fare at meeting “Mr. Right”. (BTW, my cousin and his wife are still married and hopelessly in love.) My sister didn’t have much luck, but in January 1992, I saw this ad that kept drawing my attention. As described, he really wasn’t what I was looking for, but... We met later that month for the first time; got engaged in 1993 and married in 1994. We will celebrate our 25th anniversary this October and we have a 23-year-old daughter who lives out of state. Thank you, LBYL! Mr. & Mrs. J.N.

The most common behavioral health disorder in older adults is demen tia, and its incidence is growing as the Baby Boomer generation ages. Experts project that more than 9 million Americans 65 years or older will have dementia by 2030. Anxiety disorders and mood disorders are also common among older people.
“Everyone is different, but there are tools for better health, including ther apy, medication and self-care,” said Dr. Lindsay Evans-Mitchell, medical director for behavioral health for Cigna Medicare Advantage.
(StatePoint) Older adults experiencing a behavioral health issue such as anxiety or depression may be embarrassed and think they simply need to “pull themselves up by their bootstraps,” but helping them seek help can empower them to live their best lives, according to experts.

7 Behavioral Health Tips for Older Adults

People who exercise also tend to sleep better. Having trouble getting started? Some Medi care Advantage plans include a fitness ben efit, which can pay for a gym membership or provide at-home fit ness tools.
3. Sleep Well. Like all adults, older people need seven to nine hours of sleep nightly. Dr. EvansMitchell noted that older people’s tendency to go to bed early, wake up early, and nap through out the day can disrupt healthy sleep cycles and limit rapid eye movement (REM) sleep, poten tially contributing to behavioral health issues.
