The Healing Power of Beaches
You might recall the feeling of natural tranquility that you can find while visiting the oceanfront. However, did you know that coastal living can be incredibly beneficial to your mental and emotional well-being – and especially so for seniors? Those sensations of calm and relaxation can be enhanced with the rhythmic sound of waves, the feeling of warm sand, and the soothing expanse of the sea. Regular beach walks – combining exercise with this stress-relieving environment – can serve to alleviate some symptoms of depression and anxiety. Beaches also provide a sensory-rich environment for those in memory care.

Engaging in Healthy Activities
Beaches in the Sarasota area provide our residents endless opportunities for physical activities at all levels of fitness and mobility. You might start with a stroll along the beachfront – or expand your horizons to exciting activities like beach yoga or gentle swimming. With the variety available everywhere you look, living near the beach is a perfect venue to maintain an active lifestyle. Also, you’ll find that the natural resistance of water is an excellent tool for developing joint-friendly exercise routines, helping to maintain physical health and mobility over time.

Connecting with Nature
You’ll find a deeper connection with nature as you spend more time by the sea – and this experience can be profoundly beneficial for seniors. Starting new routines like bird watching, shell collecting, or even just observing the ebb and flow of the tides can bring new activities to build a sense of daily purpose and enjoyment. And, they’re good for you, too! Keeping these hobbies on a regular schedule can stimulate cognitive function, promote mindfulness, and build a sense of community with like-minded beachgoers.

Access to Beaches in Sarasota
Our city is home to several world-class beaches. You’ll find that they’re easily accessible to residents, too. For example, Siesta Key boasts pristine quartz sand, and it’s a favorite spot for relaxation and fun among both locals and visitors. Turtle Beach, located at the southern end of Siesta Key and known as a turtle nesting area, is a rustic spot, perfect for a picnic with designated areas to gather and nature trails for walks after you’re done enjoying a meal. The overall proximity of these locations to Aviva Senior Living ensures that seniors can enjoy the beach life at their convenience.
