Thank you to all who attended our informational meetings last... unveil our new program design. If you missed the meetings,... The New Program Design from Wellness & Leisure
November 2014 A Wellness & Leisure Publication of The Hermitage at Cedarfield Visit us on the web at www.hermitage-cedarfield.com The New Program Design from Wellness & Leisure Thank you to all who attended our informational meetings last month to unveil our new program design. If you missed the meetings, the following information explains what “Pathways to Wellness” will have to offer. Over the past several months, the Wellness and Leisure department has been working diligently to review the program’s offerings and evaluate the existing program’s ability to meet current needs. We researched possibilities for improvements and created new ‘healthy lifestyle’ holistic approach to all of the department’s many offerings. We are calling it “Pathways to Wellness.” A healthy lifestyle leaves you fit, energetic and at reduced risk for disease. Good nutrition, daily exercise and adequate sleep are the foundations for continuing good health. Managing stress in positive ways, keeping your mind active and keeping your creative juices flowing are all components of the new ‘healthy lifestyle’ program at Cedarfield. The icons on the following page will give you an overview of the types of offerings our new program will incorporate into everyday programming. We are so excited about the possibilities of this new program and know that once you see its potential, you too will feel the same excitement. Page 2 Wellness Strength and Endurance Being healthy and staying strong are goals we all strive for. Taking care of our bodies comes easy at Cedarfield with numerous fitness classes, personal training and our fitness center. Residents are given the opportunity maintain their individual fitness level in a group or an individual basis.

Under the guidance of specially trained professional staff, residents are encouraged to explore new hidden talents, or nurture lifelong passions. Staff Advisor: Brenda Bickerstaff Consultant: Kay Wallace Intellectual Growth The quest for knowledge is something that we never lose, and we at Cedarfield would like to provide residents with the opportunity to do so. Various programs offer participants venues for continual intellectual growth. Trips to museums, focus group lectures, book clubs, travel logs, computer classes, partnerships with local colleges and universities are just a few ways to allow those interested learners a chance to grow. Staff Advisor: Katie Ziolkowski Consultant: Betty Hayter Spirituality Finding inspiration, maintaining an inner peace with regards to happiness and spiritual practice are vital for personal wellbeing. Many opportunities for such exploration are offered to residents on a regular basis: Weekly worship services, healing service, Bible study groups, lecture series, and much more.

The Virginia Historical Society presents: A Gunner in Lee’s Army: The Civil War Le5ers of Thomas Henry Carter to His Wife, by Graham T. Dozier In May 1861, Thomas Henry Carter raised an artillery battery and joined the Confederate army. Over the next four years he rose steadily in rank from captain to colonel, placing him among the senior artillerists in Robert E. Lee's Army of Northern Virginia. During that time, Carter wrote more than 100 revealing letters to his wife Susan about his service in the South’s most successful army.
