Prestige Senior Living at Hearthstone invites community members to improve their concentration and mental focus on Tuesday, February 25 at 9:30 a.m., with a free breathing workshop by Ageless Grace, an innovative brain fitness program focused on activating all five areas of the brain and addressing all 21 aging factors of the body. This program will teach the B-R-E-A-T-H-E Out Loud Tool, which will help residents and community members learn how to increase lung capacity and create a greater sense of relaxation. As one of the 21 exercises from Ageless Grace, the B-R-E-A-T-H-E Out Loud Tool works to improve attention span, create clearer thinking, increase energy and decrease tiredness and lethargy. The simple movements also function as games that challenge the brain’s plasticity and improve memory by augmenting and mending the brain’s neural pathways, which can regress or stop developing as one ages. As a partner in active aging, Prestige Senior Living offers a range of innovative programs dedicated to helping older adults achieve an optimum level of health and wellness throughout all aspects of their lives. This free workshop is inspired by Prestige’s Celebrations wellness program, which was designed to nurture the mind, body and spirit and give seniors the choices and freedom to celebrate life. To join this free event or to learn more about Ageless Grace, please call (509) 925-3099.
