Adult/Senior - Coping with Financial Stress - Social Emotional

-To lower financial stress, set a budget for each day and reward yourself,

-try knitting or crocheting
the repetitive motion and focus of needlework can elicit what's known as the relaxation response—a calming meditation-like state that slows heart rate and causes blood pressure to drop.

-see the bigger picture
a much healthier and more resilient attitude than having a break down is taking some responsibility but seeing this downturn more as a systemic failure and not a personal one.

-Take a stress break. Make a conscious decision to do something healthy to take your mind off your stress. Maybe it’s playing with your dog or kids, going for a run, enjoying a hobby, watching a movie, listening to music, or doing yoga.

-Choose to build wealth. Using your money to create a secure financial future, instead of spending it on material possessions, will give you a feeling of freedom.

-Get financial help. Talking to a wise friend, a family member, or a financial professional can help you see options and solutions to your financial problems that you might be overlooking.
