Morning Stretch: Movement for Older Bodies
We read and hear about the value of movement and the negative consequences of not moving, particularly as we age. But, in the midst of everything, how can we find time to exercise? And how do we meaningfully encourage older loved ones to regularly engage in healthy movement? This ACAP program will help participants become aware of healthy movement and its impact on physical, cognitive, and emotional well-being, local resources that focus on supporting movement and exercise for an older population, and specific movement activities and exercises that will help strengthen bodies and minds at all stages of aging. Program Presenter: Diane Christensen, Certified Tai Chi Instructor
