What a wonderful gathering today at McGregor! The senior residents, and our guests from the Board of Developmental Disabilities, talked about their values, morals, ethics, lessons they have learned, and lessons they would like to teach others. It was a touching day of sharing between the two groups, and discovering how much we can learn from each other.
6/17/15 – Intro to Holistic Health Care
The residents at Brookdale, and our guests from the Board of Developmental Disabilities, learned about yoga, Tai Chi, massage, Reiki and meditation. They learned how these practices are “holistic” in that they benefit the body, mind and spirit. We practiced a little yoga and meditation, and also did some sound therapy and aroma therapy. They left feeling peaceful and balanced!
6/16/15 – Music Sing Along
Our weekly sing along at the Board of Developmental Disabilities is always fun, but today was especially rewarding. One gentleman who has been in the class for a few months but never participated, suddenly started singing today. It was the song by The Monkees – “I’m a Believer”. Yes I am!
6/15/15 – Gentle Yoga
Great turnout today for our yoga class at The Jennings Center for Older Adults. The senior residents and our guests from the Board of Developmental Disabilities learned some yoga moves to keep their bodies healthy, and some breathing and meditation practices to keep their minds and spirits at ease.
6/10/15 – Gratitude Journaling
The seniors at the Cedar Center Apartments learned how the practice of Gratitude Journaling helps provide a happy, optimistic outlook on life; and helps us have a healthy perspective when the going gets tough.
