Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)
We used the "Aging Wisely" program for seniors living in the community, which uses elements of CBT and is specifically designed for older people over the age of 65 living in the community who may be in a worried, anxious or depressed mood. The program focuses on psychoeducation to manage these feelings. Seniors learn to change the ways they think and behave that maintain depression and anxiety. The sessions include education on the process of aging, coping with loneliness, improving sleep, coping with worry and avoidance, coping with loss and death. During the sessions, participants learn to track mood, motivation to change, goal setting, planning pleasant activities, identifying thoughts, working with useless thoughts, and practice techniques to replace useless thoughts. The last two sessions are dedicated to assertiveness and communication, and preventing recurrence of problems.
Anging Wisely
The program includes 11 meetings of two hours in a group of up to eight people. The sessions are held weekly. Each lesson is given a homework assignment. A total of 10 groups will take place.
Reminiscence therapy
Reminiscence is a method of working with memories. Remembering has an irreplaceable place in every person's life. It is a natural activity that can encourage people, make them aware of their own achievements, different moments in life, point out their value, promote self-esteem and contribute to the development of relationships. Self-remembering is a natural form of cognitive stimulation.
Reminiscence therapy
Reminiscence therapy sessions are held once a week for 60 minutes for 12 weeks. The maximum number of participants per group is 10. A total of 5 groups will be implemented.
Music therapy
The aim of music therapy is to optimize the quality of life, and to improve psychological, social, communication, emotional and mental health and well-being. Music therapy brings psychological and physical relaxation, reduces stress, improves mood, alleviates anxiety, improves memory and attention, develops and facilitates communication, enables self-expression. For this purpose, a number of activities are used, such as listening to music, singing, playing simple rhythmic instruments, playing the body and a number of other activities that will be carried out with seniors as part of the intervention.
Music therapy

memory training
Cognitive training is targeted and structured exercise of cognitive functions (learning, memory, attention, speech, visual-spatial functions, ability to solve problems, plan or manage various tasks and correctly recognize one's surroundings). Regular exercise of cognitive abilities can create a cognitive reserve that can delay the potential aggravation of problems in memory or attention and improve quality of life.
The content of the intervention will be activities developing cognitive functions (primarily memory, attention, imagination, spatial orientation and decision-making speed), practical training and motivation for long-term regular strengthening of cognitive functions using the comprehensive training program MENTEM.

Intervention "cognitive training" will take place once a week for 45 minutes for 20 weeks. Seniors can choose from two options: 1. group training full-time or home training (online) using the comprehensive training program MENTEM.
creation of educational modules (mental health, neural diseases …)
Educational activities will focus on disease prevention in three main directions - cardiovascular diseases, mental health and neurological diseases. Educational activities will take place within the University of the Third Age LF OU.
