Special Guests & Topics - Life Hacks for Seniors
Mental Health and Emotional Wellness for Older Adults and Their Families Emotional well-being is just as important as physical health, especially as we age. This workshop is designed for older adults and family members who want to better understand mental health, recognize early warning signs, and learn practical ways to support emotional wellness. We will discuss common concerns such as depression, anxiety, grief, memory changes, and loneliness, and provide clear, easy-to-understand guidance on when and how to seek help. Participants will leave with tools to strengthen communication, reduce stigma, and build supportive environments that promote dignity, connection, and quality of life.
Recognize Signs and Symptoms: Identify common mental health concerns in older adults and understand when professional support may be needed.
Learn Practical Coping Strategies: Explore everyday techniques that support emotional wellness, including stress management, social connection, and healthy routines.
Support One Another Effectively: Understand how family members and caregivers can provide encouragement, communicate openly, and access community resources for additional support.
