Neal Senior Center Hands Out Hot Meals 210 + hot meals go out every day Monday thru Thursday to the Neal Senior Center homebound Meals on Wheels partici- pants and to their drive- by Congregate Meals par- ticipants. Pictured above, Paulette Horn-Philbeck, Neal Senior Center Dire- tor handed out the meals. If you've noticed since the COVID-19 crisis started, most people-oriented activities are now presented through com- puter operated systems, such as ZOOM, SKYPE, and Facebook Live. While it is not the same as attending an activity in person, it still serves a practical and convenient way to keep in touch with friends, family, church, and work-relat- ed activities. And many have shown their creativity as they strive to inform and entertain us while confined to our homes. The Neal Center is join- ing this new method of shar- ing with the world by shar- ing one of our most popular classes via Facebook Live! Our "Chair Yoga" class, taught by Caroline Dedmon, is very pop- ular with the senior citizens of our area. Caroline is pro- viding live instruction in this popular and fun activity each Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday at 9:30am. The class enables anyone to learn about relax- ation, meditation, breathing techniques and stress manage- ment. With the increased stress our world is dealing with right now, this would be a great class to take part in! Though the class is aimed at seniors, anybody of any age is welcome to join Caroline on Facebook to see her class. Even an individual who is confined to a wheelchair can take part and benefit from the class, too. If you're not able to join the group when it's presented live, you can always return to FB at your convenience and see the class anytime you would like. The class is about 45 minutes long and viewers are welcome to share the link of her class with anyone. If you have questions regard- ing the class, please contact Daniel Dedmon at the Neal Center at 704/481-7387. Hot weather is dangerous for older adults and anyone with heart disease, diabetes, or a history of stroke. It's especially dangerous when there's not an adequate cool- ing system in the home.
