May 2016 Events in Denver, CO: Grow Strong Daily


We all know that regular physical activity is great for overall health. But do we all understand the dangers in being inactive? Studies indicate that sedentary lifestyles are risky. For the most part, when older people lose their ability to do things on their own, it doesn't happen just because they've aged. It's usually because they're not active. Lack of physical activity also can lead to more visits to the doctor, more hospitalizations, and more use of medicines for a variety of illnesses. In recognition of those facts, Juniper nurtures wellbeing by encouraging an active body, an engaged mind and a fulfilled spirit through our innovative Signature Programs such as Connect4Life, Connections and H’Art and Soul of Dining.

We continue our Healthy Aging Series with a focus on Fitness. In the wise words of J.R.R., Tolkien, "All that is gold does not glitter, not all those who wander are lost; the old that is strong does not wither, deep roots are not reached by the frost." This month we will Grow Strong Daily so as to not wither, but to thrive as we develop strength in bodies, minds and spirits.

This month we invite you to join us as we Grow Strong Daily with activities such as our Daily Brain Builders, Wii, and our Brain Healthy Luncheon. We also invite you to expand your knowledge in our Healthy Aging Library.

Our fabulous May 2016 events in Denver, CO at Juniper Village at The Spearly Center include our:

§  Grow Strong Daily Fitness because maintaining a healthy lifestyle for every resident is the goal of the Spearly community, please join us as we host a mini fitness fair, with prizes to be won as residents take part in group and individual exercises, healthy body trivia, and other events, and we welcome our friends, first responders and neighboring communities to this fun and educational event on our sunny Juniper patio on May 8th from 10:00 am to noon.

§  National Alliance for Mental Illness a wonderful opportunity to show your support for mental illness while enjoying a nice leisurely walk, and Team Spearly will have a booth to showcase our wonderful community and the residents we serve, so you will also have the opportunity to network with our Partners in Health Care, and light refreshments will be served after the walk that will be held in Centennial, Colorado on May 16th from 9:00 am to 11:00 am.
