The residents at The Homewood Residence, along with our guests from the Board of Developmental Disabilities, learned tools today for creating an intentional life, rather than being victims of circumstance. I guided them to decide what positive changes they would like to make in their lives, and ways that they could begin to make them. They each made a list of action items so they can start making positive changes.

 We kicked off the new trimester at the Board of Developmental Disabilities with a fun sing along. The participants had a great time singing, clapping and playing hand percussion instruments. The favorite song of the day was “Me and Julio” by Paul Simon.

 Our bi-weekly meditation class continued today at the R.H. Myers Apartments in Beachwood. We practiced Breathing, Grounding, and Sound Meditations; and discussed easy ways to incorporate meditation into your life.

 Our bi-weekly laughter yoga class at the R. H. Myers Apartments in Beachwood continued today with lots of fun. Lori led the group in laughter exercises that help to relieve stress, increase breathing, and put you in a great mood. Come join us every other Thursday at 11:00 am for this fun and unique class.

 The residents at The Homewood Residence, along with our guests from the Board of Developmental Disabilities, learned about the design tools that garden designers use to plan beautiful gardens that are pleasing to the eye.  Each student then planted seeds in a flower pot and took it home to care for it.
