From BBQs to ballgames, here’s how hearing your best helps you live your best life.
Summer is a time for reconnecting—with family, friends, and the world around you. But for many adults over 50, hearing loss can sneak in and quietly steal the joy from even the most cherished seasonal moments. If you’ve been putting off addressing your hearing, here are three surprising ways better hearing can make your summer more enjoyable—and more meaningful.
1. Conversations Come Back to Life
Whether it’s catching up with grandkids at a backyard cookout or laughing with old friends during a reunion, summer is full of lively conversations. But background noise, like rustling leaves or kids playing, can make it hard to hear clearly if you're experiencing hearing loss. Treating your hearing can help you fully engage, respond confidently, and feel more connected to the people you care about.
2. Travel Becomes Less Stressful
Road trips, airport announcements, hotel check-ins—travel involves a lot of listening. Untreated hearing loss can lead to missed details and added frustration. With properly fitted hearing aids, you'll catch every instruction, every funny travel story, and every beautiful moment, stress-free.
3. Your Confidence Gets a Boost
Many people with hearing loss gradually withdraw from social activities without even realizing it. They nod instead of asking someone to repeat themselves or avoid group settings altogether. Better hearing can help you rejoin the conversation, enjoy public events, and feel like your best self again—whether you’re at the Des Moines Farmers Market or a summer concert at the park.
The good news?
Hearing loss is common—and treatable.
This Summer, give yourself the gift of connection. You’ve got a lot of living to do—make sure you can hear every minute of it.

Hear what our customers have to say:
"I had an inferior pair of hearing aids that were very expensive and were not enjoyable to wear/use when I walked into the A.S.I. Beltone office. They performed a hearing test and explained in detail the difference between my hearing aids and Beltone's. They then had me try a loaner pair in the office and I instantly could tell the difference and could hear so much more clearer! My new Beltones are a joy to wear, my ability to hear has vastly improved along with my quality of life. I wear my new hearing aids all the time now so I don't miss out on anything!"
Excellent service and customer care. Attention to detail with current products while making you aware of new offerings.
As a former owner of another brand of hearing aids I am a believer when it comes to technology, you truly get what you pay for! Nobody is going to give you back your 18 year old hearing, but if anyone can come close, the Beltone folks are going to give it a try! After a year would you buy them again? Definitely!
