While you may no longer have a 9-5 job full of responsibilities, retirement is no time to sit still. Remaining social and interacting with others[prevents isolation and loneliness](https://www.aginglifecarejournal.org/health-effects-of-social-isolation-and-loneliness/), which can lead to depression.[Exercising after retirement](https://www.lifetimedaily.com/stay-active-retirement-experts-say/) is also important for maintaining balance, muscle function, and more. Whether it is walking, playing golf, or swimming, exercise helps to prevent stiffness and can even improve your mood. At the[Sarasota Bay Club](https://www.sarasotabayclub.net/contact-sbc), you'll find everything you need to stay social and remain active after your retirement. Here is just some of what we have to offer: ***Related Blog: [Why An Active Social Life is Important in Assisted Living CommunitiesPublished](https://blog.sarasotabayclub.net/bayshore-place/why-an-active-social-life-is-important-in-assisted-living-communities)*** ## **how to get social during retirement** Interaction and meeting fellow residents is a great way to make new friends.
