9:00 am: Tai Chi on Zoom - OFF FOR THE MONTHS OF AUGUST & SEPTEMBER- MEETS UP AGAIN ON OCTOBER 5THAugust 31, 2021 – 
*** TAI CHI WILL NOT BE MEETING IN AUGUST AND SEPTEMBER BUT WILL START BACK UP AGAIN ON OCTOBER 5TH *** Tai Chi is a series of gentle physical exercises and stretches. Each posture flows into the next without pause, ensuring that your body is in constant motion. Tai chi is sometimes described as meditation in motion because it promotes serenity through gentle movements — connecting the mind and body. There are several studies that recognize a huge benefit for people with Parkinson's performing Tai Chi. Tai Chi is especially good for balance but also helps with strength, coordination, cognition, anxiety and many other motor and non-motor symptoms of Parkinson's. Tai Chi can be done standing or sitting and is very gentle and easy on joints and muscles. The Zoom link to join this class (below) will be live 15 minutes before the start of class. |

September 17, 2021All day: Mental Health and Wellness - Victory Summit Virtual EventSeptember 17, 2021 All day 
PRESENTSAccording to the Parkinson’s Outcomes Project, a study that tracked over 13,000 people in five countries with Parkinson’s, depression and anxiety are the two most important factors that affect the well-being of people with Parkinson’s. Nearly 80% of people living with Parkinson’s report feeling depressed and anxious at some point throughout their disease. Feeling depressed and/or anxious can negatively impact your motor symptoms, relationships, sleep, disease progression, ability to exercise, and more, all of which are critical aspects to living well with Parkinson’s. Join us on Friday, September 17, where you will learn from and interact with experts who specialize in symptoms related to mood, anxiety, and depression. You’ll also hear advice on actions you can take to reduce these symptoms and thrive with Parkinson’s. View the event agenda to learn more about sessions and speakers. The Victory Summit virtual event goes beyond the screen. You will have the opportunity to ask questions and engage with fellow people with Parkinson's all from the comfort of your own home using a computer, tablet, or phone. Plus, you’ll meet some of our Ambassadors who are available to support you at any time. Register to join us.
