Senior Life Is Stressful

Aging can bring new joys and new challenges, from health issues to finances and loneliness. We can support healthy aging with mindfulness programs that reduce stress and enhance psychological wellbeing.

Seniors engaged in mindfulness programs have reported greater concentration, improved mood, less worry, and increased awareness of stressors. Other perceived benefits include feelings of kindness, compassion, and patience towards themselves and others.
