MODE OF
RECREATION
AND
ENLIGHTENMENT FORTHE
ELDERLY
For
the elderly who
have
signifi-
cant spare time, ways of recreation and
enlightenment
should be
sought
systematically.To them, these are more
than
just
pastime but are of "therapeu-
tic value". Music
may
affect the heart
rate, blood pressure,
circulation
and
even
the
movements of
the
gut.
A
de-
lightful music drives away unhappiness
and worries;
a
martial music
makes
one
more enthusiastic, motivated and even
passionate; a pathetic or grievous mu-
sic helps one
to
release one's grieve
effectively.
Calligraphy
not
only
de-
mands body
and
mind control but also
allows one
to
appreciate one's
own
work of art. lt has been
hailed
as
"the
qigong of art".
The
advantages of
fish-
ing
is
obvious and are even more
rel-
evant to the
elderly.
A game at chess
means
more
than
play
for the
elderly,
as
it
can prevent senile
dementia
through mental exercises, let
alone
making
genial
friends. Gardening
pro-
vides
a
colorful and
pleasing
environment; the fragrance
of
flowers
may even have
aroma therapy
effects
as stimulation of the sense of
smell
does have positive
etfects.
Social danc-
ing is one of
the
most graceful
and
pleasant
ways
of
body
exercise;
however, for
the
elderly,
take care
not
to over do
it.
Oversea travel enriches
one's cultural, historical and civilization
perspectives, let alone learning inter-
esting local customs and
relaxing
effectively.
