Ageism harms our physical health and emotional wellbeing...

Greetings!

Many of you are aware of my work promoting change in how we view aging and Elder care. As an advocate for person-directed care, I have worked with The Eden Alternative® since 2009, and have spoken widely about the importance of understanding trauma and its impact across the lifespan.

Cultural ageism has made it very hard to move our current ideas about older people and the aging process.  The truth is that ageism harms physical and emotional health, depriving our society of the benefits that older adults bring to robust, multidimensional and intergenerational communities.

Your family, neighborhood businesses, the health care system, and therapy practices are also affected by the negative impact of ageism, which has been described as “the last socially acceptable prejudice.’”

I am pleased to offer an online exploration of ageism, including a study of Ashton Applewhite’s acclaimed book, “This Chair Rocks: A Manifesto Against Ageism.”  We will take a deep dive into one chapter each week, and weekly live meetings (via Zoom) will allow us to hear from each other and tap into our inner wisdom about this issue.

The Impact of AGEISM on Physical & Emotional Well-Being: a Book Study with Online Circles for Connection starts on January 24th and continues through April 1st.  New modules with discussion prompts and additional resources will arrive each Monday, and Circles are scheduled for 11 a.m. eastern time each Friday.
