3 Ways to Practise Mindfulness with the Elderly

thank you for sharing this information i now our seniors will appreciate this so much.

Mindful body scan and seated meditation are a great activity. Something I will be doing with my clients for sure

I am a deep believer in the power of deep breathing practices, having been thoroughly trained in this and in Kundalini Yoga. Most people 'shallow' breathe when stressed or when inactive. Oxygen is needed by all bodily systems and if we aren't getting it, we suffer. Deep breathing also relaxes and I have given deep breathing exercises to someone who definitely benefits from this - in fact the first time I got her to do a simple breathing practice, she fell asleep afterwards! A witness was stunned. Not me, I replied, it is the power of deep breathing. Perhaps I will post this technique later. I am glad to see Yoga and breathing exercises like this post. It does bring power back to the people. Thank you.
