For my Dad, I would play music from the Indiana New Horizon Band that he played in. It is all retired people from 60 plus. Daddy was 93 years old, played the trombone, and sang baretone.

Doing self care is vital to the long term care of the sick person. You need to have down time, quiet time, spiritual time, and personal time. However you can balance your life to the change you need to master time management. If you don’t you may become aggressive, agitated, depressed, abusive, and depressed, just to name a few behavior changes.

I practice my self care regiments by getting my nails & toes done early Monday morning once a month, I take weekly garden tub baths, I have jazz music, candles, etc. I get monthly massages. and of course shopping.
Self Care
As you care for others it is imperative that you continue to care for yourself. Have you heard of a the phrase “proper sleep hygiene .” Meditate on it, do some research and determine if you have proper sleep hygiene, if not, what changes do you need to make.

Sleep hygiene is very important to the upkeep of your body. Since I have had my Sleep Apnea Machine my over health has improved. I went from 3-4 hours of restless sleep to 6-8 hours of restful sleep.
