Activities of Daily Living
December 20th

Activities of Daily Living (ADLs) is a real term used in healthcare that refers to daily basic self-care activities in an individual's residence, outdoor environment or both. The ability or inability that an individual performs their ADLs is a measure of the functional status of the individual, particularly the injured, those with disabilities and the elderly. Very young children require assistance from adults to perform ADLs since they have not yet developed the skills necessary to perform ADLs on their own.

Basic ADLs (bADLs) are the things we normally do such as bathing, dressing, feeding ourselves, functional mobility, personal hygiene and grooming. Instrumental ADLs (iADLs) are things such as housework, money management, preparing meals, shopping and work.

Sometimes it is necessary to review the rules of kindergarten to remember how to be nice to others and use Good manners. And sometimes we just need to go back to the basics of the 'Activities of Daily Living' in order to take better care of ourselves and start living Life rightly.

Below you will see 7 simple activities to accomplish at some point during the day all under the motivation of the the daily mentation question below. You have 24 hours to get through this question along with the 7 activities. READY? SET? GO!

Activities of Daily Living - Mentation Question

If I were chosen as the perfect example for something, what would it be?

Activities of Daily Living - Hygiene and Grooming

It does not matter if you are male or female, you MUST moisturize your skin. It is no different than watering a plant or adding water to a roast. A moisturizer for the face and/or body is a perfect stocking stuffer. Believe it or not, once a man uses a facial moisturizer he will rarely ever stop. We get it, but doing it is a whole other thing. Moisturize and drink water. And as I always say, "You can't flush a toilet without water and neither can your body."

Activities of Daily Living - Physical Activity

If you do not like to exercise, then you must, at the very least, go for long walks. You are asking for some serious health trouble if you do not get your body moving. Muscles are meant to go through a 'contract and relax' motion and joints are meant to bend back and forth. So you see, at the very least, walking will help tremendously as your arms and legs move back and forth contracting, relaxing and bending. In addition, your calf muscles operate as your second heart, pushing blood back up to the heart. If you do nothing else, at least WALK!

Activities of Daily Living - Housework and Cleaning

Today is just as Good as any day to check the batteries in the smoke detector and carbon monoxide (CO) detector. Make certain these two are working at all times and if you do not have a CO detector, then get one. Use this link to see if you need a CO detector in your home. Chances are the answer is 'Yes'. It only takes a minute to check to save yourself and your family.

Activities of Daily Living - Financial Management

Most successful moneymakers will readily admit that they take responsibility for their own decisions and do not blame anyone else. Either you are in the driver's seat of your financial Life or you are not. If you are not in the driver's seat of your financial Life, then it will be clear. Successful moneymakers never blame anyone for the times they failed, instead they take failures as schooling and get back on their path. Successful moneymakers cannot be stopped and never whine saying, "Poor me" . . "You, you, you!" . . or "They, they, they!"

Activities of Daily Living - Work and Productivity

The work that I have chosen to create for myself has put me in a position to be ridiculed, mocked, poked, snubbed, ignored and disregarded. If I cared for one second what the doubtful, skeptical, judgmental, jealous, arrogant, unoriginal or unimaginative folk thought of me, then I guess I would have a problem with it and shrink back. But guess what, I don't. Those uneducated on the topic of 'your passion' will have a lot to say. When it comes to your passion and mission, either you will be dictated by your beliefs or you will be dictated by others beliefs.

Activities of Daily Living - Food Preparation

For those of you who are set on making a healthy New Year's resolution actually stick, food prepping will be the most important part of your success. Make certain that food prepping is part of your resolution. Food prepping is where it will all begin. This means you are deliberate and purposeful in how you prepare your food ahead of time.


Activities of Daily Living - Today's Healthful Nutrient

and incorporate them into your diet today.
Get creative!

DESCRIPTION: This is an amino acid that has a high sulfur content and is formed in the liver from L-Methionine.
