Tell us what you did during Active Aging Week to redefine the term "Active."
We created a special week of activities showcasing the variety of our programs that are designed to keep older adults active, engaged and socialized. Featuring some of our regular events, as well as bringing in exciting community partners - like Laughter Yoga - to encourage participants, their caregivers and our guests to think outside of the box of what activities for older adults are supposed to look like. We had unique arts and crafts, nutrition seminars, wellness and exercise programs, brain games, Music Matters with interactive activities, sing-along and reminiscing set to music, drum circles, and more. Laughter Yoga was such a hit - making us laugh for "no-reason," which got everyone moving and bringing oxygen to our brains and bodies and making us all feel good and immediately happier! The silliness brought everyone together and created such a sense of community and togetherness - and it was an activity that no one had ever done before! Everyone had a smile on their face and the laughter was contagious and permeated the center all day!
