Dimension of Wellness: Intellectual Wellness
Activity: Travel Hour: A Tasty Trip to Mexico 🇲🇽✈️
Description: This week, our residents took a fun and flavorful journey during Travel Hour as we “traveled” to Mexico through a delicious selection of snacks from Universal Yums. Residents explored new flavors, learned about regional treats, and enjoyed interesting facts about Mexican culture, traditions, and cuisine. Lively conversations and curious taste-testing made this experience both engaging and educational.

Intellectual wellness thrives when we explore new ideas, cultures, and perspectives. Activities like Travel Hour spark curiosity, stimulate the mind, and bring the world a little closer—one bite at a time.

Dimension of Wellness: Vocational Wellness
Activity: Resident-Led Baking Class: 7-Up Biscuits 👩‍🍳🥣
Description: This week, one of our talented residents took the lead in a special baking demonstration right in our dining room, showing everyone how she makes her famous 7-Up biscuits. She measured, mixed, and prepared the dough herself while staff handled the oven baking. Everyone enjoyed watching her skills in action, learning her tips, and celebrating her talent. Afterward, we all got to enjoy the warm, buttery biscuits—and we even prepared extra to serve at tomorrow’s Thanksgiving lunch!

Moments like these highlight the power of vocational wellness by allowing residents to share their abilities, take pride in meaningful contributions, and shine in roles that bring purpose and joy.
