The Health Connection
2025-09-08 13:30 - 14:30 | Fayette Senior Services Life Enrichment Center, 4 Center Drive, Fayetteville, GA, 30214, United States
The Health Connection – Monday, September 8 – 1:30 p.m. to 2:30 p.m. Fayette Senior Services (FSS) – Peachtree City location at The Gathering Place, 203 McIntosh Trail The health element of ‘connect’ is perhaps the most critical element of them all. Connect includes 3 levels: connection to self, connection to others and communities, and connection to a higher source that may or may not include a specific religion. As we age, we must ask ourselves if we have fully connected to our health, abilities, and wishes. More importantly, adult children of aging parents need to reflect on whether they are ready to relate to their parents beyond the traditional parent-child dynamic. Perry Brubaker, a certified prevention and health promotion specialist with a background in physical therapy, explores our personal connections with ourselves as we age, the impact of the medical system on our perceptions of aging, and the challenges adult children may face when navigating the health and care of an aging parent. Drawing on both scientific research and her own experience caring for her mother, Perry will facilitate a safe and open discussion aimed at fostering better communication between parents and their adult children—ultimately helping them connect with each other in a new, meaningful way. This program is FREE but pre-registration is required. Call 770-461-0813 or email register@fayss.org (include name, phone number and event title) to register. FSS members and non-members welcome. www.Fayss.org.
