mindfulness and growing older

Check In: September 23rd to September 25th 2024

This weeks post is about mindfulness as we grow older ( 5 more months and I turn 60 yrs old ).

No one looks forward to growing old it is just a phase of life. Older people tend to be more positive than younger people.  Some look a old age as illnesses , aches and pains to figuring out where we left our car keys or cellphones.  Studies have shown that older adults will experience positive emotions than younger adults.

This study is called well -being paradox , it means as we age we are more mindful in age. Mindfulness is an important component to aging health.  There are five ways to practice mindfulness as we get older.

Mindfulness can prevent depression and anxiety

Mindfulness can improve cognitive

It can help fight health diseases 

It can manage pain we may have

It leads us to be more mindful

Which of these activities if more than one do you like doing?

How do you feel afterwards?
