Retirement is theoretically a relaxing time designed to reward years of
hard work, but it can be anything but calming for retirees used to
living with the routines and financial security of full time employment.
It is a major life change, and retirees face the pressure of making a
series of major financial and lifestyle decisions such as selling the
home to downsize, moving house, sorting possessions, revising living
expenses and budgets, re-negotiating relationships and perhaps
relocating to a new area at the same time.
Such changes can be
liberating and life-enhancing, but this transitional period followed by
extended leisure time can be more stressful than expected. Experts offer
constructive suggestions for managing this adjustment, and settling
into a new lifestyle in retirement while maintaining physical, mental
and emotional well-being.

Retirement can be stressful for seniors,especially when they have to move to a place other than home.To avoid this,Elderly Care at Home
is an option which most seniors prefer since they feel more secure,comfortable and independent in their home.
