Join Susan Mayer, LMT, VSTLCP, for an hour of relaxation through sound meditation.
We will experience how the sound and vibration of the various instruments help the mind and body move into a state of relaxation. This is a wonderful opportunity to sit in stillness while the mind and body are soothed by the beauty of sound.
Even when words fail, sound is able to touch a place within, bringing comfort to the mind and body.

Join Courtney Way, Training and Development Manager at Heritage Community, for Best Friends™:Knack. It will include a brief overview of Alzheimer’s and dementia before jumping right to how we help the person have the best quality of life possible.
