|
Biweekly on WEDNESDAYS: Nov. 1, 15, 29, Dec 13 (4 weeks) from 10:00 A.M. – 11:00 A.M.
Take part in our final Garden Wellness Cafe series for 2023, and let’s get set for winter together! Join certified forest therapy guide and horticultural therapy practitioner, Emma Rooney, to learn tips for staying healthy and connected to nature all year long. From the comfort of your home, you'll have a chance to meet others in a fun and supportive environment and be transported to beautiful outdoor settings through photos, art, and poetry. Our autumn series will help you put your garden to bed, propagate succulents for indoor growing pleasure, learn from squirrels how to be winter warriors, and explore the survival strategies of plants in cold climates. We’ll start each session by awakening our senses through some gentle seated movements to get our bodies warmed up. We’ll also engage in a group chat and demonstrate a hands-on creative activity that you can try from home. This program will be held on Zoom. Participants will be mailed program materials and expected to collect some simple supplies on their own (instructions provided). Garden Wellness Cafe is intended for people living with early to mid-stages of dementia, young onset dementia and mild cognitive impairment. Caregivers are invited to attend alongside a person living with dementia or to join us to get ideas for sharing nature-based exploration with the person they are supporting. Date:
