NEWSLETTER OCTOBER 2016

SPEAKING FROM THE HEART ♡ ♡

October, with its cooler temperatures, changing autumn leaves that rustle beneath our feet and shorter days, brings to mind all the hopes and promises of a new season. At this time of year, you might want to look around and observe the children and their excitement about wearing a costume for Halloween. That intoxicating opportunity to pretend, to act out dreams and fantasies, to play a new and different role for a brief period of time is inviting, alluring and ever so enticing. As adults we also need time to play, time to pretend, time to dream and the permission to do so. Yet, do we allow ourselves that chance?

In our everyday world with the weight of responsibilities and decisions, do we tend to walk around wearing masks that disguise our true selves? Do we present a face of contentment, peace and tranquility for the world to see, while keeping the face of loneliness, uncertainty and indecision hidden from public view? Do we give voice to optimism and happiness rather than disclose the fragments of despair and sadness that visit our inner world? Do we “protect” our family members by withholding what is true and real?

You say that no one really wants to hear your story or bear witness to your troubles. You claim that if you share your sorrows, expose your vulnerability or appear depressed or anxious, then you will find yourself in a circle of one – truly all alone. Social acceptability dictates that in the public arena, smiles are the preferred affect. So we tend to tuck away our pain and paste on the mask of contentment, fortitude and satisfaction and venture out into the new day.

The need to belong and feel understood and accepted grows out of the social connectedness beginning with our family. We are each born into a unique family with its distinctive design and patterns of behavior and we spend our lives weaving in and out of the love, delights, heartache and disappointments that are inherent to family life. Our memory banks are filled with stories and adventures of celebrations, triumphs, stressors and discord that mark our journey. Our family albums preserve the brave smiles, sheer joy, silly antics, and solemn moments of those people who are most connected to us reminding us that we are not alone.

The masks that we adorn protect us publically from revealing our inner truths. They give us comfort, protection and reassurance that we will find a place within the arms of family and friends and be welcome. As we transition into fall with its vibrant display of color, may we find the courage and strength to peek out from behind our masks and begin to reveal some of our true selves. May our lives be filled with the colors of peace and contentment and may we find ourselves able to give and receive lovingkindness in a world of acceptance and warm embraces.

Preventing the Flu There is no cure for the flu so it is very important that you take steps to avoid getting the flu. Here are some healthy things you can do: • Get a flu shot every year – Again, Flu Vaccines will be given again on Thursday, October 20th beginning at 10:00 am in the Library of the Senior Center courtesy of Duane Reade. • Wash your hands regularly throughout the day. • Avoid touching your face too much. • Drink plenty of liquids and cut down on alcohol, soda and coffee that have caffeine in them. • Get plenty of fresh air. • Do aerobic exercise regularly. • Eat a healthy diet that includes yogurt and dark green, red and yellow fruits and vegetables. • Don’t smoke and avoid smoky rooms. • Get plenty of rest. • Avoid crowds and close contact with people who are sick.

Symptoms of the Flu Unlike a cold that comes on gradually, the flu begins suddenly with a headache, chills, and a cough and is then immediately followed by fever, loss of appetite, muscle aches and tiredness. You can also have a runny nose, a sore throat and pain when you move your eyes. Most people recover from the flu within 7 to 10 days, although the tiredness can last much longer.

If you get the flu, take care of yourself by getting plenty of rest and drinking plenty of liquid. Avoid infecting others by staying home and using a tissue when you cough and sneeze. Ask your doctor or nurse whether you should take medication for your flu symptoms. Call your doctor if you improve but then you seem to get worse again, of if after 7 to 10 days you have: • A worse cough or if you see yellow, green, rust-colored, or bloody mucus when you blow your nose. • Persistent fever • Ear pain, sore throat, sinus pain

Start practicing good health habits today so you can stay healthy this flu season.
