One of the best ways for older folks to protect themselves from falling is to practice balance. I didn’t even know balance was something you could practice and improve. I figured you either had it or you didn’t. But apparently, if you make a daily routine of things such as, standing on one leg, or walking heal-to-toe in a straight line, you will eventually develop more solid balance when walking, climbing stairs, exercising, and so on.
Keeping a good mental balance is important also. Life has many obstacles that can trip you up. A healthy dose of prayer and church fellowship will help keep your moods and outlook from falling into dark places.
You’re always on stable ground when you focus on others. Who can you catch from falling today?
Excellent advice!
Yes, thank you .
