We teach our residents at Jewish Senior Life that when our mind is elsewhere and bogged down in the news of the day, we may not be aware of where our body is taking us, and this is when accidents may occur. As we go about our daily lives, we must remember to be mindful of our bodies as we take steps up or down stairs and move in and out of cars performing errands, etc. We have to protect ourselves and be aware. Take time and use handrails and notice our surroundings, being conscious of every moment. Breathe. Inhale…. Exhale….
