Moments in Bloom: Nature, Connection & Fresh Air for People Living with Dementia and their Care Partners
Moments in Bloom is a gentle, dementia-friendly program designed to create meaningful moments of connection for individuals living with dementia and their care partners. Please join us for intentional time in and around nature at our Lutherville–Timonium center. Together, we will explore gentle nature walks, guided reminiscence, mindful body movement, contemplative practices, music and other nature-themed sensory experiences—each designed to meet participants where they are, with compassion and flexibility. This program is designed for individuals who may or may not have previously spent time outdoors prior to the onset of dementia. Activities can be adapted to honor varying physical abilities, including wheelchair accessibility and seated participation. Lunch and refreshments will be served. Benefits of participating in this event include:
· Meaningful moments of connection between care partners and loved ones in nature
· Gentle engagement with beauty, movement, reflection, and imagination, while accommodating cognitive differences and decline
· Connecting with oneself and former/current interests and activities in a familiar way that provides momentary conscious awareness, connection, and a deep impact on a spiritual/meaning-making level that is more than momentary
· Spiritual and emotional nourishment through community and the presence of nature
