WHAT IS HEALTHY AGEING???
Healthy Ageing Is An Approach Which Recognizes That Growing Older Is A
Part Of Living; Recognizes The Interdependence, And The OngOing
Activities And Behaviours YOu Undertake To Reduse The Risk Of Illness
And Disease And Increase YOur Physical, EmotiOnal And Mental Health,
As One GrOws Older• With That Been Said, Lets Look At HOw It Is A
SOcietal RespOnsibility FOr A Life Time.
HEALTHY AGEING AS A SOCIETAL RESPONSIBILITY FOR A LIFE TIME....
Healthy Aging Is AbOut Much MOre Than Staying Physically Healthy- It's
AbOut Maintaining YOur Sense Of PurpOse And YOur Zest FOr Life, And
This Where The SOcietal RespOnsibility COmes In.
As We GrOw Older, We Experience An Increasing Number Of MajOr Life
Changes, Including Retirement, The LOss Of LOved Ones, And Physical
Changes. HOw We Handle These Changes, As Well As Regular Day-To-Day
Stresses, Is The Key To Aging Well.
MOreso, It'S A SOcietal RespOnsibility FOr A Life Time, Because It's
About COntinually Reinventing The Aged, Into Finding New Things They
EnjOy, Teaching Them To Adapt To Change, Staying Physically And
SOcially Active.
UnfOrtunately, FOr Many WhO Are Aging, There Are Anxiety And Fear On
'HOw Will I Take Care Of Myself? What If I LOse My SpOuse? What Is
GOing To Happen To My Mind?
HOwever, Many Of These Fears Stem FrOm Myths AbOut Aging That Are
Exaggerated Or Simply Untrue.
It's The RespOnsibility Of The SOciety To Make The Aged Who Believe
Old Age Means POor Health And Disability, To KnOw That Getting Old
DOes NOt Automatically Mean Poor Health Or That YOu Will Be COnfined
To A Walker Or Wheelchair. It's The RespOnsibility Of The SOciety To
Make The Aged Understand That They Can Enjoy Vigorous Health.
Preventive Measures Like Healthy Eating, Exercising And Managing
Stress Can Help Reduce The Risk Of Chronic Disease And Fall Risk Later
In Life.
SecOndly, It's A SOcietal RespOnsibility FOr A Life Time, Because The
SOciety Has To COntinually Give The Aged ReasOns To Be HAPPY And
Lively. In Other WOrds, The SOciety Has To Make Them Feel Accepted.
FURTHEMORE, Healthy Aging; As SOcietal RespOnsibility FOr A Life Time,
Also DOes Include Creating Schemes And Activities, That WOuld Inspire
The Aged, Creating An AtmOSphere COnducive To Increase Physical,
Emotional And Mental Health Like I Stated Earlier.
SO, Healthy Ageing; As A SOcietal RespOnsibility FOr A Life Time,
COmprises Of Creating Better Ways Of Caring FOr The Aged, And
Increasing Their State Of HEALTH In All Facet, To Make GrOwing Old
Less Feared, And EnjOyable 'HEALTH WISE•'
