Starting The Positive Aging Movement!

Thanks to everyone at Kensington Place Retirement Residence in Toronto for inviting me to come and present my workshop on The Positive Aging Movement. The workshop discusses self esteem and positive aging for older adults and seniors. We discussed changing attitudes and times, shared personal stories and our greatest achievements, goals for the future, and tips for maintaining good self esteem.

Approximately 30-40 showed up to participate in the workshop and enjoyed activities like writing down personal reflections and coming up with our own affirmations. The audience was wonderful and had a great time. I really enjoyed meeting everyone, hearing their thoughts and learning from their experiences.

Many thanks to Lisa Ludmer for the invitation to come and speak with the residents. And thanks to Zoe Hawkins, my Ryerson summer student, for doing a great job on presenting and facilitating.
