Growing Pains Be Gone!
Growing old doesn’t have to mean slowing down — well, too much. This Sunday, UMass is hosting the annual Active Aging in the Valley conference. The event will feature talks, workshops, and panels as well as free health screenings. Workshops will include: fitness on a fixed income; resistance, balance, and back care; eating right for healthy aging; practicing mindfulness; supporting pelvic health; and healthy aging for women. Don’t miss the panel “Don’t Just Sit There: Stories of Success,” and hear personal anecdotes from people who went from frump to fabulous.
Active Aging in the Valley: Sunday, Nov. 20, 11:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Free. (413) 585-5207, [email protected], activeaging.gazettenet.com.
