July 24 marks International Self-Care Day — a gentle reminder that taking care of yourself is essential at every stage of life. For seniors, self-care can be as simple as staying hydrated, getting quality sleep, enjoying gentle movement like stretching or walking, or spending time with loved ones. Engaging in hobbies, staying socially connected, and setting aside quiet time for relaxation all support emotional well-being. Even small acts of self-kindness can boost mood, energy, and independence. Celebrate yourself this month and remember — caring for your body, mind, and spirit is never selfish.
