2. Work the Ability to Focus and Find Sounds
To be more resistant to the need to increase the volume, you must work on the ability to focus and locate sounds. To do this, you can, for example, try to focus solely and exclusively on the sounds of a song’s drums, completely ignoring the sounds of the other accompanying instruments and even the singer’s voice. Another very effective exercise is to ask a person to hide in a certain room of the house and to read random phrases so that you can concentrate solely on that person’s voice, eliminating the remaining noises. This type of exercise will work directly on your ability to locate and isolate sounds.
1. Always Wear Hearing Aids
How to improve your hearing in old age? Everyone knows that hearing loss is a reality as age increases. But that does not mean that you will no longer hear the sounds of what is around you, nor will you fail to communicate effectively with your closest friends and family. Currently, hearing aids make a brutal difference in the lives of those who suffer from hearing loss. Although this type of technological device does not correct your hearing difficulties, the truth is that they do no harm either. They will prevent advances in bad hearing and help you keep your brain active in sound processing. Thus, your understanding will never be affected and you will have a healthy, sound, and balanced life. If you are a hearing care professional, you can also use these activities to care for a person with hearing problems. In both situations, the results will be encouraging and will contribute greatly to the increase in self-esteem, quality of life, and joy in listening and enjoying the little things in life…such as the chirping of birds!
