How do you defeat ageism?
Unfortunately, ageism is everywhere. These negative behaviours can negatively impact seniors’ health and well-being. We have to do something about it. There are some ways we can defeat ageism:
Do not let anyone bully you. Know the signs of ageism and put a stop to it. If someone is treating you disrespectfully, speak up against it. Do not hold your feelings; getting sad or angry is normal. Don’t tolerate. Others must know how they are affecting your emotions.
Prove that age is only a number. If you allow others to do things for you, they’ll believe you cannot do it. And one more thing! Live a healthy lifestyle. Prioritize your health. A healthy lifestyle with the proper diet and regular exercise will give you a better chance to defeat ageism.
