Social emotional support
Everyone needs to establish contact with others and gain a sense of existence and value from the relationship. Retired people have lost their job roles and need the interaction and support of close family and friends.
As the family members of retirees, they should spend more time chatting, walking and eating with their families to improve each other's happiness.
As a retired person, make an appointment with old friends, often exchange and chat, and maintain closer and more satisfactory social relations.
Participate in interpersonal activities
What activities are there to improve the happiness of the elderly?
1, productive activities. For example, making handmade products, or re-employment.
2. Volunteer activities. There are many volunteer activities in the community, which need people who really have time and responsibility to take charge. Such as traffic coordinator, garbage sorting supervisor and so on.
3. Hobbies. With a lot of time after retirement, I can regain my hobbies and find people with similar interests, which greatly improves my self-satisfaction. Such as dancing, painting, calligraphy, reading and so on.
4. Exercise. Many people in the morning exercise team are retirees. They pay more attention to their health. In the process of physical exercise, they make more new friends and expand their social scope, which has an excellent influence on both body and mind.
My parents are Tai Ji Chuan fans, and they fight several sets of boxing every morning and evening. Boxing friends often get together, travel and participate in local competitions, and their lives are very rich. They think retirement is the golden age of life.
Provide social resources suitable for the elderly
What I mentioned earlier is the changes made by the elderly at the individual level to adapt to retirement. This item is social and should provide a better living environment and social resources for the elderly.
China has entered an aging society, and the elderly population is increasing year by year, so many corresponding social activities have been carried out in the society. For example, universities for the elderly, mass art galleries, cultural palaces and other places have group activities and learning programs for the elderly. I hope that there will be more and better policies to evaluate the psychological needs of the elderly and care for them in a targeted manner in the future.
Paying attention to the quality of life, quality of life, community service and mental health of the elderly is a sign of social civilization and is also related to everyone's vital interests. If nothing happens, everyone will live to be old. Paying attention to the physical and mental health of the elderly means paying attention to our own happiness. At the same time, the happy life of the elderly also contributes to the harmonious and stable development of society. May everyone have a happy and complete old age.
