Music is the Medicine of the Mind!

Simply put: Music is powerful “medicine.” It holds the power to reduce stress, improve symptoms of depression, and enhance productivity, among others—and, ultimately, improve a person’s quality of life. … For seniors who have age-related memory issues—or even dementia—music has the power to actually bring back memories.

Young at Heart!

Activity helps you look and feel younger and healthier. Did you know that it is scientifically proven, that an active lifestyle helps keep one looking younger and feeling stronger and healthier longer. By moving the body for 20-30 minutes each day – walking, dancing, swim-ming, weight-lifting, golfing, or participating in yoga, water aerobics, or pilates – one’s metab-olism is stimulated and mood is elevated. Active engagement in creative physical activities is good for the overall health of the body, mind and soul.
