The Power of Positive Thinking in Your Senior Years
The years beyond retirement can be some of the most
meaningful of your life. They offer space to reflect, reconnect, and rediscover
what brings you joy. At the same time, it’s natural to face changes along the way,
like shifts in health, evolving social circles, or the question of what this next
chapter should look like. We believe that thriving in your senior years begins not
with perfection, but with perspective. The way you view yourself and the world
around you can gently shape your emotional well-being, your relationships, and
even how you feel physically, day to day.
Keeping your mind active doesn’t have to feel like work.
Simple activities like conversation, reading, games, and new experiences can all
support cognitive wellness in a relaxed, enjoyable way. The goal isn’t perfection —
it’s engagement, curiosity, and connection. We make space every day for moments that
help keep the mind stimulated while still feeling fun and stress free. A healthy brain
is nurtured through warmth, community, and small daily habits that truly fit your
life.
Everyone is welcome at Laurel Heights, especially our
furry friends. Pets bring comfort, joy, and a sense of purpose to daily life. They
help us stay active, offer companionship, and make every moment feel a little
brighter. Caring for an animal keeps us connected, grounded, and smiling and they
certainly look adorable doing it.
Our Christmas Market brought all the holiday magic to Laurel
Heights. Residents enjoyed shopping, treats, and festive cheer!
A cozy happy hour with Christmas cocktails and a little
friendly competition! Our residents had a wonderful time sipping, laughing, and
playing snowman ring toss. ️
Our residents took part in a German- American holiday
tradition, searching for the hidden Christmas pickle! The lucky person who finds the
pickle is said to receive good luck and a little extra joy in the year ahead. There
were lots of smiles, laughs, and very determined pickle hunters.
Recently, we enjoyed a great time with laughter, teamwork
and Holiday spirit! Our residents and employees competed in festive games, cheering
each other on, smiling from ear to ear, and bringing the holiday magic to life! The
room was full of excitement, friendly competition and lots of giggles. Every game had
a crowd, every crowd was cheering, and every person left with a big smile. By the end
the whole building felt brighter, lighter, and filled with that warm holiday joy.
Thank you to every resident and team member who joined in.
