SUMMARY:Healthy Aging: A Wellness Education Series – December 2025
DESCRIPTION:Navigating a Season That May Be Hard\nThe holidays can bring joy\, celebration\, and family connection—but for many older adults\, this season can also be emotionally challenging. Changes in health\, mobility\, family routines\, grief\, loneliness\, and memory difficulties can make this time of year feel overwhelming instead of uplifting. \nCommon Holiday Challenges for Seniors\n\nLoneliness or social isolation – Less time with family or changes in relationships can make the season feel quiet and heavy.\nGrief and loss – Missing loved ones who have passed can intensify sadness during a time usually filled with tradition.\nHealth changes or mobility limitations – Activities\, travel\, and busy schedules may feel physically or emotionally taxing.\nMemory or cognitive changes – Large gatherings\, noise\, or new environments may bring confusion or anxiety.\nPressure to “feel festive.” – Many older adults hide their sadness because they do not want to burden others.\n\nJoin us for a conversation on:\n\nWays to support your emotional wellness during the holidays\nHow to honor memories and stay connected\nCreating calm\, predictable routines\nHow to process all of the feelings you may have\n\nWe look forward to seeing you there! \nWho’s Invited:\nThis free\, welcoming session is designed for older adults and their caregivers. \nWhere:\nThe session will be held in the meeting room at Ridgewood Villa\, just north of Glacial Ridge Health System. Please use the Villa’s main entrance off Franklin Avenue in Glenwood. \nEach session in the Healthy Aging Series highlights a different area of well-being with tools to support your mind\, body\, and quality of life.
