    Crystal Sound Healing

    Tuesday, February 27th at 1:00pm @ Lyme Library

    Join us in welcoming Priscilla Gale, who will be here to present and demonstrate the impact that sound has on our bodies and how it can help us in healing ourselves. “If given the opportunity, the body is genetically pre-programmed to be a self-healing instrument, holding within our bones, blood, emotional and ethic bodies the harmonious vibrational memory that is the organizational patterning for perfect health. When we seek that direct connection of our own individual vibration so as to resonate in concert with the symphonic resonances of the Universe, we transform our personal experiences and begin the journey of healing as we come into balance and harmony with our highest purpose. Priscilla’s dedication and powerful commitment, meets each individual person and their needs right where they are.” This event is free for members, 55 years of age or better!

    *FREE* Tai Chi with Alex Culligan

    Tuesday, February 27th at 8:30 AM @ Rogers Lake Clubhouse–

    Join us as we start a new Tai Chi program! Instructor Alex will be leading this class, and he is bringing plenty of experience and expertise to the Lymes’ Senior Center! Research shows that practicing tai chi can improve balance, stability, and flexibility in older people, including those with Parkinson’s disease. Practiced regularly, it can also help reduce pain, especially from knee osteoarthritis, back problems, and fibromyalgia. On Tuesday, February 27th, we will be offering the first class of Tai Chi for free, so any interested members can come try it out! Please call (860)434-1605 ext. 241 to register for this class!

    Starting in March, we will be offering Tai Chi in 4-week sessions. The cost for a 4-week session would be $30 for members. Payments for these sessions will be made to the Lymes’ Senior Center; payments can be dropped off or mailed to the Old Lyme Town Hall or brought to the first class. Please call (860)434-1605 ext. 241 if you would like to register for March’s 4-week session.
