Are you afraid of "getting old"? In fact, aging is not judged by age. Because the speed of each person's aging rate will be affected by factors such as genes, environment, and lifestyle. At the same age, some people live a life of dragons, while others live a long and old dragons. Since age growth is inevitable, no matter how many years you are now, you can make an elegant old age life first.
The Ministry of Interior statistics show that the average life of Taiwanese people in 110 years was 80.86 years old. Judging from the legal retirement age of 65, most people still have a lot of precious and plenty of time to use after retirement. Therefore, it is extremely important to find new meanings and focus in life.
First of all, in daily leisure activities, it is recommended that everyone start to cultivate their preferences and interests from a young age, and continue this leisure activity as health permits. After retirement, you have plenty of time to cultivate more hobbies, whether it is dynamic sports, mountain climbing, travel, or quiet reading, painting, pet breeding, religious activities, etc., and learning widely can bring challenges, fun and sense of accomplishment to life.
The best activity for the elderly is "sport". There are many benefits to sports, including: allowing the body to better function, controlling or preventing the three highs, reducing the loss of muscle mass, increasing the softness and balance of the body, reducing the risk of falling, etc. If you exercise with your friends, it will not only help the sustainability of sports habits, but also maintain good relationships, stimulate happiness hormones, and make your body and mind healthier.
Sometimes the elderly say, "I am so old, what are you doing to learn these?" In the past, we were easily restricted by the established value framework of "utilitarian" or "useful", but in fact, the brain needs to constantly accept the stimulation of new things, and stimulate more positive energy through learning and practice. The sense of accomplishment gained in the learning process often exceeds the value originally thought, and has a positive impact on the body and mind. As long as we are willing to take steps bravely, we can finally learn.
Age is never a restriction, there are no activities suitable or inappropriate for the elderly. A healthy elderly person can do activities when they are young, and can do the same when they are old. There was an old lady who liked to play golf. She couldn't continue playing because of knee pain, but because she didn't want to give up her interest, after changing the artificial knee joints, she could play golf again after resting and being comfortable.
If people who like to climb mountaineer, when their feet cannot be burdened, it is recommended to consider changing to smooth hiking or riding on the ground, so that the burden on the feet is smaller and adjusting it according to their health.
If you don’t have any leisure entertainment at a young age, you can slowly develop and find new life goals after retirement. Especially in the 3C era, it is recommended that elders learn to use computers or mobile phones at the same time, which will not only not cause physical burden, but also help with brain learning and increase interaction between people, which will greatly benefit.
The most important thing to make an elegant old age life is to maintain a positive life view, learn from multiple aspects, and live a happy life.
