Workshops and presentations for professionals and caregivers.

How can we as professionals help seniors make the most of their elder years?  We offer avenues for increased emotional, social, intellectual and spiritual bonds among clients, staff, family and community.

We offer continuing and professional education workshops, retreats and pre-retirement presentations for:

  • Medical, Health and Human Services staff and administrators
  • Caregivers, hospice workers and Para-professionals
  • People in "pre-retirement"
  • Staff, managers an administrators who serve older adults
The workshops are lively, reflective, energizing and prepare you with information, skills and ideas to bring back to the workplace and put into use immediately.  We'll help you develop an on-going program for your organization.

Presentations, workshops and retreats continually engage participants by intertwining theoretical material with interactive exercises, meditations, writing, movement, discussions and group sharing.

Some of the topics we explore:

  • Developmental task of our elder years - redefining our roles as elders
  • How to deal with life completion
  • Creating your Elder Vision - a personal plan for the last third of your life
  • Gratitude for the gifts we receive and those we have to give
  • Embracing the role of the Elder in our families
  • Serving as an Elder to others: Wisdomkeeper, oral histories and mentoring
  • Community building - a way of serving others
