"No" Doesn't Always Mean No!
People living with memory loss can lead a life of quality, but it requires a commitment from friends and families to learn and practice new communication skills. It is our job to speak to the person so they understand, feel understood, and stay connected with others.
This is designed for family and friends who love someone with memory loss. A "no" response to "Mom do you want to see outside on the porch? maybe a no because the person is fearful on falling.

Untangle your mind with Zentagling
Wouldn’t it be nice to relax, feel happy and focused with just a few stokes of a pen? Sound too good to be true? Come join me as we learn Zentagling, a meditative art form that creates overall well-being and has been shown to be helpful with pain management, managing anxiety, decreasing depression symptoms, and improving focus with someone living with a traumatic brain injury. The repetition, simple steps, and detailed patterns is also useful for those living with PTSD.
Please bring a fine tip marker or pen, several pieces of paper and colored pencils if you like.
Join me for a fun and creative experience while learning about mindfulness.

Normal Aging or Memory Loss
Are you forgetting words, or find you forget why you entered a room a bit more often? Join me for an informal chatAs we age, our thought processes can slow down and we may become a bit forgetful; misplacing our keys occasionally or forgetting why we walked into a room. This forgetfulness can be easily resolved by retracing our steps, or just taking a few minutes to recall where we left the keys or what we needed when we changed rooms. But memory lapses, memory loss, and losing things frequently is not part of the healthy aging.
