What resolutions do you have for this year? Are you prioritizing your health in 2025?
Research that focuses on the lifestyles of pockets of people around the world with the highest proportions of folks 100+ years old shows that a handful of habits have led to higher life expectancies and quality of life in the latter years. They call these pockets of healthy aging the Blue Zones.
Some healthy habits found in Blue Zones include:
* Having a routine that allows you to shed the stress of the day. For instance, in Okinawa, they take a few moments to commemorate their ancestors daily. In Icaria, they take a nap.
* Moving naturally. No need to run a marathon or go powerlifting, but make sure you get steps in, bend, reach and stretch whenever possible.
* Having a sense of purpose. Maybe the reason you get in the morning is to discover your purpose. You don’t have to have all the answers, but having the drive is important.
* Putting loved ones first. Having your chosen family close by can add to that sense of purpose we talked about before and give you the social support to keep loneliness at bay.
Unfortunately, there are several people who are dealing with resolutions that revolve around starting chemotherapy, radiation, surgery, and other nerve-wracking forms of treatment. If you or a loved one is dealing with a difficult diagnosis, Premier Patient Housing provides you with the environment to implement what you can from the Blue Zones so that you can truly focus on your health and quality of living.
Sure, the obvious amenity is that each of our units are in a complex that has a gym open and free for residents. However, there is so much more with Premier Patient Housing, and it all begins with an easy booking system and seamless check-in process.
We have two-bedroom furnished apartments so that you can keep your loved ones close during this stressful time. The complexes have game rooms, lounging areas, and pools for you all to wind down together. If you want something a little quieter, there are streaming services in each of the units, and you can ask us for puzzles!
We also have pet-friendly units if you need to bring your fur babies on your wellness journey. We know these unique family members can brighten up the day in an instant, provide a sense of purpose, and even encourage us to move naturally. If you’re not up for a walk around, there are dog runs on the property where you all can stretch out your legs and wag your tails.
