1, call frequently.
A famous medical professor in the United States said that maintaining long-term friendship is of great benefit to maintaining a happy mood and good health. It is not surprising that just talking to friends on the phone can lower blood pressure. In addition, participating in activities at least once a week will sharpen your mind and prevent heart disease.
Step 2 cultivate a wide range of hobbies
You can learn some painting, calligraphy, music, poetry and so on. Especially listening to music. There is a neurasthenia patient in Italy, and long-term treatment is ineffective. Once, the doctor gave him three light music records and told him to play them twice a day at home for a week. A week later, the patient thanked the doctor for curing his illness. In addition, planting vegetables, flowers, fish, fishing, raising birds and playing chess can not only enhance the interest of life, but also cure diseases.
Step 3 travel
Tourism is also beneficial to the physical and mental health of the elderly, because the beautiful scenery of nature can inspire people. It would be more ideal if we could travel with young people or engage in some recreational activities. For example, in Shanghai and other places, "Forgetting the New Year's Friends" activities are held to let the old people communicate with the young people through letters, dialogues, symposiums, parties and other forms, so as to enrich their lives and balance their emotions.
4. Do more good deeds
Research by American psychologists shows that doing five good things can make you happy and peaceful. Of course, doing good deeds will make you feel unexpected returns, without planning some trivial things in advance. If it is difficult for you to do five good deeds every day, you don't have to worry about kindness.
Don't get into trouble.
Don't blindly look at anything, otherwise it is easy to walk into a dead end. We should learn to look at things from different angles, analyze problems, find different solutions to problems, and get rid of the depression caused by rigid treatment of problems.
6. Stay mentally young
With the growth of age, physical aging is inevitable, so the elderly should keep young psychologically. Everyone knows that aging is a natural law, but not everyone can stay young psychologically.
