Staying engaged is great for mental well-being, especially when we are older. Nurturing your connections with loved ones, joining a social group, or volunteering for something you care about is helpful to feel active and connected.
Embracing movement through walks, yoga, or dancing also benefits both body and mind. Challenging yourself with brain teasers, exploring a new hobby, or learning something new helps to keep the mind sharp.
Remember, if you need mental health support, a doctor or therapist is also an option. samhsa.gov/resources-serving-older-adults. #MHAM2024 #MentalHealthMatters
