  • Exploring Elderhood Together

    LMH Main Room 26 Pleasant St, Newburyport, MA, United States

    Thursday, February 20, LMH Main Room, 1-2:30 pm. We use rituals to mark the early stages of our lives, like birthdays and graduations--but what about our later years? Together we’ll view a video about looking both backward and forward, and about a possible new ritual of giving away your things (and sharing the stories behind them) as you get older, to reflect on your life so far and open the door to whatever comes next.

  • Exploring Elderhood Together

    LMH Main Room 26 Pleasant St, Newburyport, MA, United States

    Thursday, April 17, LMH Main Room 1-2:30pm. An Experiential Program to Support Vision, Movement, and Balance with Ree Coleman We are all keenly aware of our sense of sight and how our sight and eyes support us each day. Also associated with our sight are two less talked about senses: proprioception, a sense of where your body parts are and what they’re doing; and equilibrioception, a sense of balance, aka your internal GPS, letting you know if you’re sitting or lying down. Both are important parts of our systems that can be trained to support us in all parts of our day to create greater balance and harmony with each step and breath. Ree Coleman returns to start us off with some movement and will then focus on educating us on creating healthier vision habits to ease the daily stress and strain our eyes endure. Ree is a certified Kundalini Yoga, specializing in Eyes On Yoga combining yoga with the Bates Method Vision Improvement, as well as Brain Gym to coordinate eyes with brain and body for greater balance.

    Thursday, October 16, LMH Main Room, 1-2:30pm. Join Exploring Elderhood Together for the first presentation of the church year: Let’s Talk about Posture. Aging with aligned posture is critical to aging well. Misaligned posture such as rounding forward (otherwise known as the way most of us age) is associated with pain and a multitude of health problems. In this presentation, you will learn how the nervous system controls posture, balance, and movement. We can use this understanding to make improvements in neuromuscular function, which can help us maintain a more active lifestyle and positively impact longevity. Our presenter: Jackie Orent-Nathan is a Nurse Practitioner specializing in the neuroscience of posture, balance, and movement, as well as the management of chronic pain. Following a long career managing patients with chronic pain within a primary care practice, she now lectures and teaches classes about how to calm an overprotective nervous system to manage pain, and how to support the nervous system to improve posture, balance, and movement.
