Enjoy Wellderly Day

Mission Hills Homecare RNs Celebrate Wellness With You

Wellderly Day Is a Celebration of Healthy Aging

Pegasus homecare RNs in Mission Hills help you celebrate Wellderly Day. They know you are As Young As You Feel. RNs have lots of tips to help you feel healthy and energetic.

National Wellderly Day is March 19, but don’t limit yourself to one day. The Well-Elderly celebrate life every day despite its difficulties. Ignore anyone who tells you to act your age.

Celebrating does not mean you deny your age or infirmities. Until you’re pushing up daisies, you have something to feel good about. Engage in living.

The first thing to do is to dispel a few myths about maturity. The more common myths are:

  • Needing a walker or wheelchair is inevitable
  • You will lose your memory
  • You can’t learn anything new
  • There’s nothing left to take joy in

The facts are just the opposite.

The years don’t automatically add up to poor health. Sure, you might not get around as easily as you used to. Everyone’s memory fades a bit, but some things are better forgotten anyway.

Taking good care of your health when you’re young is best. However, it’s never too late to join the Well-Elderly. Life can always bring joy.

Home Health Care Helps You Stay Well in Mission Hills

Confidence in yourself is necessary. Mission Hills homecare RNs help you adjust to the changes in your life. They know that the more you do, the more you can do.

If you’ve been sedentary, the physical therapists at Pegasus will work with RNs to get you moving. You start with gentle exercises that are safe. Movement improves your physical, mental, and emotional health.

Unable to sleep well? Your RN has suggestions that will help you fall asleep and stay asleep. Sleep is how your body restores its vitality.

One thing that is inevitable as you age is the loss of friends and support groups. You can count on help from your homecare RN and Pegasus counselors.

They will help you get out and enjoy your favorite Mission Hills activities. They will also help you find new activities and friends. If you can’t get out, caregivers will arrange visits and home projects.

Home health care professionals understand that life isn’t always wonderful. They know it’s unhealthy to deny or sweep unpleasantness under the rug. You have their help in cultivating your natural optimism.

Little Changes Help You Revitalize Your Life and Improve Your Health

Even a small change in your routine can renew your pleasure in life. Get up earlier or later. Have pizza for breakfast and oatmeal for dinner.

Take a class in anything. There are dozens of free online classes. Or teach someone how to do something.

Do something new. It doesn’t have to be fancy or expensive, just different. Instead of your favorite TV show, change the channel.

Try a new restaurant if you go out. Read a book by an author unfamiliar to you. Put a flower in your hair or your buttonhole.

Dwelling in the past can depress you if you focus on how bad things are now compared to then. Instead, try listening to the music you enjoyed in your younger years. You might just find yourself feeling like you did then.

March 22 is Young As You Feel Day. That’s a fun day for those in their mature years. You get to flout convention and ignore dignity.

Think of something silly you always wanted to do. Then do it. And enjoy every second while you’re doing it.

Reach Out To Others

Volunteering is a gift to yourself and others. If you are mobile, you can find activities such as reading to children at your library. If you are a shut-in, write a letter or call others who can’t leave home.

Invite your grandchildren or neighborhood youngsters to visit. Playing with them is the best medicine available. Teach them to color the skies green and the grass blue, and you’ll all have a grand time.

Pegasus caregivers do their best to help you stay healthy and independent. Their goal is to help you improve your quality of life. Your well-being is always first and foremost to them.

Dozens of daily occurrences can leave you stressed. That’s when the bad habits that steal your health take over. You head for the sweets, cigarettes, alcohol, or all three.

Your in-home care includes helping you find healthier ways of relieving stress. Caregivers listen when you need to vent. If professional help is needed, they will get it for you.

If you’re a smoker, you’ll get help with quitting. Aside from what it potentially does to your health, smoking ages you. Excessive consumption of alcohol doesn’t lead to wellness.

Yes, you need to follow healthy eating habits. Homecare RNs will help you with nutritional advice and meal planning. But they aren’t going to stop you from having a big dish of ice cream now and then.

It doesn’t matter how old your heart is; you can celebrate being young at heart. Once you’re done with Wellderly Day and Young As You Feel Day, there is National I Am In Control Day on March 30. Homecare RNs in Mission Hills will be there to celebrate with you.
