Wellness Forum Brings Vitality to Sunday Mornings

There is a buzz around our latest addition to Sunday mornings, and for good reason. Last Sunday, Dr. Ryan Uitti and Rick Stein shared invaluable insights on aging gracefully and staying strong. The audience soaked up every word.

The resounding message from this session was simple: “Just Move.” It’s a mantra we can all embrace, emphasizing the importance of daily movement in maintaining health as we age. Here are a few practical takeaways:

• Stand up and sit down without using your arms 10 times a day
• Practicing balance by standing on one leg while brushing your teeth
• Use a walking stick and grasp high on the handle to promote proper posture, especially important for those 65 and older.

These practical suggestions were greatly appreciated for their simplicity and potential to improve mobility and overall well-being.

This coming Sunday promises another enlightening session as Canon Susanna Gunner discusses spiritual wellness with Dean Kate. Canon Gunner brings a wealth of experience and insight, having served as a Spirituality and Discipleship Adviser in Norfolk, UK. She is a brilliant theologian, able to weave stories of faith and discipleship. Her upcoming discussion promises fresh perspectives on nurturing spiritual wellness. And as a bonus, this conversation will be livestreamed, see the link in the Sunday schedule below.

Looking ahead, the forum will also feature discussions on financial wellness, led by Dean Kate and Jayne Hill, and much more. Plan to join us every Sunday throughout the Easter season for a regular dose of inspiration and practical wisdom.
