As we welcome the arrival of Spring, there is a sense of rejuvenation and transformation in the air. For seniors, the benefits of moving during this time of year can be particularly advantageous.<\/p>\n
While this is true for those of all ages, the advantages of moving during this time of year can be even more beneficial for older adults. . In this article, we will explore why it is recommended for seniors to consider moving in the springtime.<\/p>\n
The following may be the less obvious advantage of moving to a new location during the springtime. However, that doesn\u2019t make it less true.\u00a0 Moving during the springtime can offer several psychological and general health benefits!<\/p>\n
It\u2019s well-known that experiencing some level of stress during the moving season is normal.\u00a0 However, having more sun-filled days can have incredible benefits on one\u2019s health, regardless of life\u2019s circumstances.\u00a0 This includes having a positive effect on a person\u2019s mental health<\/a>. It also plays a role in a person\u2019s ability to handle stressful situations.<\/p>\n According to Harvard<\/a>,\u00a0 \u201c[Vitamin D] has long been known to help the body absorb and retain calcium and phosphorus; both are critical for building bone. Also, laboratory studies show that vitamin D can reduce cancer cell growth, help control infections and reduce inflammation. Many of the body\u2019s organs and tissues have receptors for vitamin D, which suggest important roles beyond bone health, and scientists are actively investigating other possible functions.\u201d<\/p>\n It is important to factor in the fact that moving can be a massively emotional experience. Even at the best of times, it can be a rollercoaster of emotions.\u00a0 Add cold, icy and snowy weather to the mix and, to put it simply, it can be a recipe for disaster both physically and emotionally.\u00a0 By moving in the Springtime, the chances of an external factor such as weather creating a bigger issue is minimized.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Being able to use the weather to your advantage throughout the moving process is sometimes overlooked.\u00a0 While we have already discussed how it can be safer in terms of a person\u2019s health, mental especially, this is not the only advantage.<\/p>\n For example, the following are just a few of the benefits of moving during the months that offer nicer weather:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n While it is clear why moving in the springtime is recommended, it is still important to be as prepared as possible.\u00a0 Keep in mind that Spring can be full of surprises!\u00a0 One last unexpected snowfall, high temperatures, rain- you never know what can happen.\u00a0 It is for this reason that it is best to have a plan in place for any and all scenarios.<\/p>\n As recommended for any move, have a plan in place in case of an emergency.\u00a0 Ensure all medications and medical supplies are within arm\u2019s reach, along with a good supply of water and snacks.\u00a0 In addition, it is highly recommended to have a swift and efficient means of reaching emergency services readily available. Although this may appear to be excessive preparation, it is always prudent to err on the side of caution.<\/p>\n If you or a loved senior has their sites on Spring 2023 for a move, consider Alivio Downsizing.\u00a0 As a Premier Member of the National Association of Specialty & Senior Move Managers (NASMM), we can handle the full relocation from end-to-end, clearout the home in a\u00a0 professional, sustainable, and cost-saving manner.<\/p>\n Call us today at (437) 329-6873<\/a> Or, message us<\/a> at info@aliviodownsizing.com to see how we can help!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" As we welcome the arrival of Spring, there is a sense of rejuvenation and transformation in the air.
