Emotional well-being affects every aspect of our lives, from physical health to relationships and overall happiness. For seniors, maintaining emotional health is crucial for enjoying life’s pleasures and staying connected with loved ones. A positive emotional state can also reduce the risk of mental health issues like depression and anxiety, which are common in older adults.
