Sitter-size: Included in each workbook is a detailed exercise guide designed to strengthen the core, increase range of motion, reduce the risk of falls, and strengthen important muscle groups, as well as cardio exercises to increase oxygen and blood flow to the brain and other vital organs.
Prayer/Meditation: The purpose of this portion of the workbook is to reduce stress and/or anxiety. Self-affirmations are a key component to this exercise, which we encourage seniors to read aloud.
