Getting outside to spend a little time in nature is relaxing And a great mood booster. Even if their limited mobility means that our reaident can only get to the porch or sit next to a big window, getting some fresh air or viewing the scenery is a great everyday activity.

Almost everyone perks up in the presence of young children. And playing with pets is another surefire way to bring cheer and reduce stress.

A movie or a couple of TV shows/ sports/ current events can be an enjoyable part of the day or week. Watching TV could even intersect with a hobby.
