LIVING ALONE
Being alone doesn't have to mean being lonely

You're by yourself. And you're lonely. Living alone can be difficult, especially if it follows death or divorce. And the holidays only seem to heighten your feelings of isolation or boredom.

But being alone doesn't have to mean being lonely. There are steps you can take to find happiness on your own. Try these:

Get socially active

An important first step is to get active. That doesn't mean you have to join every civic group in town. It can be as simple as spending time with family, meeting neighbors for coffee, or getting more involved in your church or another group.

Get physically active

Join an exercise class or a walking group, or just plan for regular exercise on your own. Exercise can promote good sleep, an improved appetite and better health.

Get a pet

Pets make great companions. They give you someone to take care of and talk to. Studies have also found that pet owners have a reduced risk for cardiovascular disease compared to people who don't own pets. One reason may be that pet owners tend to get more exercise than people who don't own pets. Animals can also reduce anxiety and help you relax.

How about a hobby?

Try spending time at whatever you enjoy doing. That may be reading, gardening, cooking, playing a musical instrument or doing woodworking or painting. To help you along, many libraries and bookstores have book clubs.

If you don't have a hobby, it's never too late to develop one. Many people find pleasure tracing their ancestry, writing a family history or starting a journal of memories.

Try some travel

Seeing new places can be exciting and stimulating, as well as a source of wonderful memories. Traveling is also a good way to meet new and interesting people.

There are many ways you can travel - from airplane to bicycle. You might start with a short 2- or 3-day trip, then move on from there. Maybe you have friends or relatives you haven't seen for a while.

Travel agencies can offer suggestions on trips that fit your interests and budget. A number specialize in senior travel. Some will even match single people who want to share hotel rooms to save money or simply for companionship.

For seniors

In addition to the tips already listed, consider these if you're older:
Check out your senior center - Senior centers are a good place to find companionship (and food!). Many centers provide daily activities, ranging from speakers to bingo. Hot meals are usually served at least 5 days a week. If transportation is a problem, see if the center provides a free shuttle service or can help you find another way to get there.

Go to work, or volunteer - A job can make you feel good and useful. More companies are finding that seniors who return to the work force are reliable, punctual, loyal and easy to train. An area employment service may be able to help you find a job. If you don't want the constraints of regular work, you might try a temporary employment agency where you can control your own schedule.

Or perhaps you'd be more interested in volunteering. Nearly 14 million people over age 65 volunteer as tutors, mentors, counselors, crime victim advocates, school and library aides, drivers for social service agencies, helpers at hospitals and nursing centers and care providers for people who are homebound. People who volunteer tend to be happier and healthier.

Head back to school - Perhaps you put off your education when you were younger. Now might be the time to re-enter college or take just a few courses at a local college or university. You might also learn how to use a computer, if you haven't already.

If getting around is a problem or you don't live near a college or university, you may be able to take home-study or correspondence courses. A nearby museum, library, YMCA or religious or civic group may also offer courses.
