Chair Yoga

Chair yoga has been increasingly popular as it is more accommodating. As long as you can sit up, you can do chair yoga.

We are very lucky to have Maxine Younger (pictured above) teach us chair yoga three weeks in a row from 11 a.m. to 12 p.m. on October 10, 17 and 24. All chair yoga classes will be held at Hillside Covenant Church, 2060 Magnolia Way, Walnut Creek. Admission is FREE. You must register to attend the Chair Yoga classes.

Maxine Younger has been teaching yoga since 2005. Her yoga styles draw from Hatha styles, mindful movement and integrating meditation and pranayama in classes. Maxine finds yoga healing and that it fosters an understanding of how body and breath awareness can unwind physical tension and emotional stress as well as promoting relaxation.

Contra Costa County Parks and Trails Presentation

Want to know about Contra Costa County parks and trails?

This session will help us on how we plan our future walking and hiking trips. We will also learn about fire dangers and where to find shady trails on hot summer days.

This presentation will take place from 11 a.m. to 12 p.m. on Friday, October 31, at Hillside Covenant Church, 2060 Magnolia Way, Walnut Creek. We couldn't have found a better speaker than John Mercurio, a board member of the East Bay Regional Park District.

You must register to attend the presentation.

We look forward to seeing you at some or all of our future events.

MDV Reads

I know there are a lot of readers out there. Since Mt. Diablo Village is a nonprofit organization for seniors, I would like to suggest that we read Super Agers by Dr. Eric Topol. Super Agers is an evidence-based guide for healthy aging.

Ever noticed how some people get to their 80s and 90s and continue to be healthy and active? How do they do it? Is it luck or genetics? We may be able to find some answers in this book.
