Hearing puts you at the center of your world, allowing you to feel engaged and connected.
“Think about your hearing this way: If you watch a program on mute, does it have the same effect?” HearingLife chief audiologist Jillian Price says.
“You can listen, not see the show and still understand what’s going on. Can you do the same if you’re watching the show and there’s no sound, no context for what’s being said? There are so many audio cues in what we consume.”
Testing your hearing regularly, especially after the age of 60, is part of preventative healthcare. Hearing health is connected to mental and cognitive health.
Addressing any changes in your hearing ability helps to protect your memory, energy, and levels of stress. It also helps to keep you present in your world.
“Hearing allows you to feel engaged and connected to the world around you,” Price says.
“Think about what goes into hearing the words, ‘I love you.’ There’s emotion behind the words, and that’s how we connect. Hearing health is really about our quality of life. Hearing adds so much richness that without it, the world doesn’t have the same texture.”

“If you can hear someone whispering softly to you or listen better at work, you’ll be less stressed out. You’ll be less tired at the end of the day. You don’t have to struggle and strain. You don’t have to miss the punchline,” Price says.
“Let the hearing aids do the work so you can enjoy your life,” Price says.
