Keeping Busy for Your Health and Happiness!

Treeview Estates offers unparalleled retirement living, with a wonderful community that can play a vital role in your health and happiness. Loneliness has become an epidemic for older adults and can be as detrimental for your health as other factors, such as obesity. Taking an active role in your community, and finding ways to stay busy in your retirement, can help you maintain both your mental and physical well-being!

Getting involved with others in your area is often a fun and easy way to keep the boredom at bay. Find some common ground, such as cooking, book club, gardening, or walking and put the call out to those in the community who are interested in joining in. Offering some fun challenges can be a great motivator to inspire others to take part. Whoever walks the most steps or reads the most books can earn themselves small prizes or, even better, bragging rights for the week! 

While typically we retire to get out of working, finding a way to earn some extra money can be another great way to keep busy. The best part is that you can do it by following your passion. Maybe you’re an expert woodworker, or a passionate knitter. Getting paid to do something you love can be very rewarding, and a great boost for your confidence and mental health. Giving back through volunteering is another way that you can follow your passions, and fill your time with meaningful work.

Of course, we all know that staying active is at the top of the list for mental and physical well being. Treeview offers a wide variety of recreational activities and amenities to keep both your mind and body active, from line dancing and massage, to art classes and bingo. Pursuing a hobby, whether it’s learning something new or enjoying an old favourite, is also something Treeview residents can benefit from with our recreational facilities.  

A balanced lifestyle is key to maintaining your health and happiness. We would love to show you around our beautiful neighbourhood, spring is just the perfect time of year to drop by and take in our beautiful surrounds. Give us a call and drop by for a coffee and a tour of the village.
