Care With Soul

BALANCED CARE METHOD AT CAREWITHSOUL

Balanced Care Method is based on studies of the extraordinarily long- lived elders living in the islands of Okinawa, Japan – the longest-living people on earth; and here at CAREWITHSOUL, we utilize this approach to its full potential, creating the right individual care plan for all of our seniors, the disabled; with a focus on providing quality of life.

This Balanced Care Method based on studies of these extraordinarily long-lived elders in the Okinawa region of Japan where life spans of over 100 years are not unusual in Okinawa. More important, people in their 70s, 80s and beyond enjoy incredible good health and independence. Excellent physical health, mental awareness, and inner calm are common among the studied elders. The Balanced Care Method seeks to capture some of the lifestyle factors that go towards creating such long-lived and healthy people.

This Balanced Care Method, implemented here at CAREWITHSOUL, focuses on the whole person, considering their current state, encompassing their physical, emotional, and social well-being: “Healthy Living and/or Quality of Life” through procedures studied by the scientists who conducted the corresponding research in this community in Okinawa, Japan:

Balanced Nutrition,
Physical Activity
Sufficient Sleep
Cognitive Stimulation (Mental Activity)
Social Engagement,
Sense of Calm,

The Balanced Care Method is an evidence-based program built on studies that demonstrate that only one-third of our healthy longevity is based on genetics and two-thirds on lifestyle factors within our control.

Every Care Plan we design at CAREWITHSOUL is based on the Balanced Care Method, our proprietary approach to care. This holistic approach involves much more than helping with tasks and daily activities—it goes beyond basic home care services, focusing on the key components of wellness and quality of life.

The Balanced Care Method is also a cognitive therapy, a structured lifestyle program designed to promote long-term brain health. CAREWITHSOUL caregivers are not only well trained in this therapy, but they also apply it according to the plan created for the client, which helps balance the individual by encouraging physical activity and engaging in meaningful activities. The goal is to help seniors live happier, healthier lives at home as they age.

“THE BALANCED CARE METHOD and CAREWITHSOUL, the secret to a long joyful life like in Okinawa, Japan.”

It’s clear to everyone that it’s not about living for the sake of living or trying to prolong our lives as much as possible if it’s painful. The reality is that we all want to live as many years as possible, but we don’t want this long life to be filled with pain and more pain, memory loss, fear, inability to walk, etc., and even less so with so many common illnesses, especially in older people. What we want is to live, but with quality of life, and not wish that this long life wouldn’t last any longer, as that would seem like daily torture. But if we’re already in that situation—that is, what if we already suffer from all these symptoms and more?—How do we address it? Implementing our Balanced Care Method at CAREWITHSOUL isn’t just for one type of case. We know what to do and how to proceed from the moment we see you. No matter your condition, we will help you.
