SUMMARY:Aging Well\, Living Fully: Biomechanics and Ergonomics for Sexual Well-Being
DESCRIPTION:Join Brock University for a free thoughtful\, practical session on sexual well-being as we age – an important (and often overlooked) part of overall health and quality of life. This session is designed for community members\, practitioners\, students\, and researchers who want to better support healthy aging – whether in their own lives or in their work with older adults. \nPresented by Dr. Richard Hughes\, this talk uses a respectful\, research-informed ergonomic approach to help match the physical demands of intimacy with the strength\, flexibility\, balance\, and comfort of both partners. Dr. Hughes will introduce basic principles of biomechanics and apply them to real-life questions\, including common age-related conditions such as arthritis\, as well as hip precautions following total hip replacement. \nThe session will include time for Q&A. \nThis event is free and open to the public\, but registration is required. Register Here \nFor more information\, please contact Ally Fast at afast@brocku.ca

SUMMARY:Meditation & Mindfulness
DESCRIPTION:Join us each month as we engage in activities of self-care to promote positive brain health and meaningful connections. We welcome anyone who is looking to relax and have fun! \nThis session\, led by facilitator Heather Finlayson Fenton\, offers participants a chance to rest\, reconnect\, and learn simple practices to support emotional resilience. We’ll explore how to begin and/or sustain a regular meditation practice\, bring mindfulness into daily life\, and meet each moment with greater compassion and acceptance. \nThrough guided meditation and practical tools\, you’ll learn how to calm the mind\, ground the body\, and care for yourself with kindness. These aren’t just ideas\, but inner capacities we can cultivate to create ease and increase joy. \nNo experience needed—just a willingness to pause and breathe. Transportation available if needed. \nFunding provided by the New Horizons for Seniors Program.
