Welcome New Beginnings: January Events


Welcome to 2015! What a wonderful time for us to reflect on the past year and forge ahead with new beginnings. January is a time for change when we make and sometimes break our New Year’s resolutions and focus on what we want to make better in the coming year.

January is also the month that Juniper Village begins our Winter Alive In All Seasons theme of Creative Expressions: “Explore Your Creativity” where in January we will focus on music! Research shows that music can help us physically by easing pain, helping us sleep better, eat less and enhance our blood vessel function. It is also suggested that music can help us mentally by reducing stress, relieving symptoms of depression, elevating mood, decreasing anxiety and improving cognitive performance. Hospitals are using music to help cancer patients manage stress and anxiety and to ease recovery in stroke patients.

Our fabulous activity offerings this month include our Welcome New Beginnings Open House as we have been busy making our building look warm and cozy with new carpeting throughout and renovations to our beauty salon among a few of our recent updates, but don’t forget to check out on our third floor, The Kennedy Art Room, dedicated to President John F. Kennedy who stayed in that room in 1960, so we welcome you to stop in and see what we have been up to while enjoying a food station by our Chef Nathan, beverages, entertainment, free giveaways and tours on January 20th from 2:00 pm to 6:00 pm!

Look through our calendar and join us this month as we explore our creativity through music with outings to local musical performances, Elvis’ birthday celebrations and concerts by our Joyful Noise Choirs. We invite you to Welcome New Beginnings at Juniper Village and make a habit of joining us for activities and events throughout the year!
