Seniors Day Out - SDO

Kayleen from Orewa

🌿 BETTER LIVING TIP 🌿

Boost Your Balance – Right From Home!

Did you know that just 1 minute a day can improve your balance and confidence?

👣 Try this simple exercise: Stand on one foot while brushing your teeth.
✔️ Hold onto the sink for support if needed.
✔️ Switch feet halfway through your brushing time.
✔️ Make it a daily habit!

🧠 This little move improves coordination, strengthens ankles and calves, and supports fall prevention — all while taking care of your pearly whites!

Small actions. Big benefits. That’s better living. 💛
