Friend Needs a Plan
Hello Friend, what are you doing these days? Child, I tell ya, I just can’t seem to get out of that bed in the morning,’ it feels so good! But ya know, by the time I drank my first cup of coffee fix and eat my breakfast. My dog and cat are looking at me saying “feed me, feed me” then it’s time for me to wash up and get dressed. After I do all that, I only get to fix a light lunch ‘cause by then it’s time to watch my favorite shows. Do ya watch those soap operas? Naw, I don’t watch soap operas, I like to watch the good stuff like Bonanza, Gunsmoke, and The Rifleman, they take ya way back when tv was clean!
Call to Action
So, my friend, what are you doing for your body?Remember, you are ‘fearfully and wonderfully’ made! There is no one else like you ‘cause you are unique!
You really need to take care of your body. Have you thought about going up there to that Center? You remember Harrison School, right?Now it’s called the Harrison Center for Active Aging.
Activities at the Harrison Center
You gotta check it out! They have all kinds of things going on like Pickle ball, all kinds of dancing, Exercise machines where you can walk on the treadmill or ride bikes until you work up a sweat. I remember you used to play in the band, didn’t you? Well, they got Cardio drumming using a big ball and sticks, like the drums where you could get a great workout because you will be movin and groovin which helps your body get unstuck!
Or would you like to be low key? Yes, I started a quilt several years ago and would like to finish it.
Wow, that is cool, cause quilting is one of the crafts they have there, the others are beading, cross-stitch and sewing. Hey, I’m not gonna try to tell you everything that goes on at the Senior Center, it’s just too much! You, my friend, get up out of that bed and go out there to check things out for yourself!
Well, maybe I will tell you about a couple more things; there is this lady named Cindy, she is not even from Selma, but knows everything about our little town. She started a group at the Center called, “Telling our Stories.” This is an amazing group of writers because all they do is write, write, and write some more. With all that sharing, critiquing and writers joining in from surrounding towns some individuals have written and published their first book. Now there is another writer named Doc Carol, who’s not from Selma either but has added More writing prompt activities to the group “Telling Our Stories” With those tips shared individuals could possibly write their entire Memoir. So yes, the Selma Senior Center is the place to be to get unstuck!
Finally, Group Life Coaching helps individuals explore relationships, set boundaries, manage time, build activities, and develop plans to reach their greatest potential. We all make judgments of other people, everyone shared some of the perceptions people have made about them. Director Adrienne shared that individuals have said “I am bossy, a leader, a strong woman, doesn’t easily take “no” for an answer and seeks to make things happen” She also shared that being assertive was required in her male dominated career as a Coach.
So, my friend, what are you waiting for? There is a lot offered to help get you unstuck, and guess what, the center even has meals. So, while you are preparing all those meals at home, you can come out and enjoy lunch, the people, and activities at the Senior Center for Active Aging.
You Win!
Now, what ya gonna do?
Tell ya the truth, you sold me! I don’t know where I’m gonna start but I look forward to finding my way, checking out the activities, meeting new people, and getting unstuck! Come Monday morning, I will begin my time at the Senior Center for Active Aging.
Your Friend,
DrWanda Life Coach
