Healthy Aging Series
September 30, 2021 @ 1:00 pm - 2:00 pm
Free
This class will explore topics and provide practical advice related to keeping adults as healthy as possible during their later years.
Many of us know to “eat right,” “exercise,” and “sleep enough,” but we don’t know what is eating right or what exercises are possible with physical limitations. People are curious about the vitamins and supplements they can take to help and how much alcohol is “safe” to drink. Research has shown countless benefits to social support and social engagement. Are older adults aware of the benefits and/or resources available to them? Meditation/mindfulness can help reduce stress, lower blood pressure, improve sleep, and more. In this series, we will explore the many domains impacted by age and give participants practical suggestions on how they can age in a healthy manner.
