Wellness
Led by qualified and trained Wellness, Resident Service and Activity Directors, the Artegan Wellness Program has five components: physical health, brain power, social connections, spirituality and culinary experience. Our approach is holistic; we value the connection of the individual program components. A great way to Celebrate the ART of your life.
PHYSICAL HEALTH
Variety is the spice of life and at the heart of Physical Health at Columbia Ridge Exercise is physical activity that’s planned, structured and repetitive like tai chi, or an chair aerobics class. At our community you will find both. Even if you’ve never exercised, it’s not too late to start. Physical activity will help increase your energy, be steadier on your feet and best of all will extend your life. Here’s a sample of how we’re getting and staying in shape:
- Walking club
- Balance and strength programs
- Chair Excercise
- Blood pressure, Audiology, and Health monitoring clinics
SOCIAL CONNECTIONS
Socialization and support help us prevent isolation, build self-esteem and contribute to our ability to continue to grow as people. We design our events and activities to be stimulating, engaging and just plain fun. Enjoying the companionship is another way we’re Celebrating the ART of Life. Here’s a sample of our social activity:
- Volunteer opportunities
- Cooking clubs
- Outings to: theatrical performances, restaurants, scenic touring places
- Holiday celebrations and Happy Hours
- Gardening events
- Movies
SPIRITUAL WELL BEING
What nurtures our sense of wholeness and spiritual wellness? Columbia Ridge programs are designed with respect for each person’s individuality as she defines it. We believe it’s important for each of us to have the opportunity for inner growth. Quiet reflection is another way we’re Celebrating the ART of Life.
Here’s a sample of what you’ll find:
- Church services
- Meditation groups
- Yoga
- Book clubs
