SUMMARY:Falling more safely? Yes! Here's how! Free Zoom workshop
DESCRIPTION:Fall prevention is so important — but sometimes we do fall. When that happens\, people will fall resilience skills (like martial artists\, parachute jumpers\, skateboarders\, etc.) are more likely to emerge with fewer injuries\, or even catch themselves as they stumble and prevent the fall. \nLet’s learn some of these skills\, at whatever level is comfortable for each of us! \nNO need to fall on the floor in this workshop — you can gently crumple into a seated position on your chair\, or you might set up your phone/computer screen near a bed or sofa for careful practice if that works for you! \nWe’ll practice catching ourselves as we stumble\, and falling more gently by crumpling\, tucking and rolling into the fall (even practicing in a chair can build important reflexes that can help us in case of a fall!). \nNotes: \n\n\nOf course there is no way to prevent all injuries\, but these techniques can contribute to reducing our risk of serious injuries like concussion and broken bones. \n\n\nThese are not ideas that we learn once and “remember\,” but skills that we can intentionally practice to create helpful reflexes in the case of an unexpected fall. \n\n\nIf you have osteoporosis or orthopedic limitations\, you’ll stick to slow\, very low-impact demonstrations\, but these can still be helpful! \n\n\nLet me know if you have any questions! I’m a personal trainer and Functional Aging Specialist\, and along with several colleagues\, I’m excited to bring these cutting-edge skills to FFF>50 and the world! \nI’ve led this workshop in person numerous times at my county rec center\, a yoga studio and a Power Over Parkinson’s group\, and it has been very well-received. This is my first time on Zoom\, so we will see how it goes! Looking forward to sharing this with you! \nSign up on Meetup here or email me to join\, hope to see you! Will be recorded — just email me for the replay!

SUMMARY:On Zoom: Introverts' Big Talk!
DESCRIPTION:For people who don’t enjoy small talk\, like many of my fellow introverts ?\, let’s dive right into “Big Talk!” \nThis is an event for Finding Female Friends >50\, please join our free nationwide network here . Or if you’re female and over 50 or nearly so\, you can just contact me for the Zoom link\, hope to see you! \nWe’ll use the breakout rooms to pair off by twos\, to discuss a “big” question for 14 minutes (roughly 7 minutes for each person). \nThen we’ll return to the main “room” to share brief reactions\, then move on to a new round with a new topic and a new partner. \nWe’ll enjoy a total of three rounds\, which may give us new insights into our own lives and each other\, and maybe help us connect with someone who becomes a new friend! \nRules: Active\, deep listening. Sharing the time equally. Accepting what the other says with kindness and unconditional support because it is true for them. \nHope to see you!

SUMMARY:Laughter Yoga on Zoom!

To sign up\, just email me for the Zoom link and reminders. \nYou might feel (understandably!) that you don’t have much to laugh about these days. But research shows\, and participants regularly tell me\, that by “laughing on purpose” with a friendly\, supportive group\, we can feel: \n\nLighter and breathing more freely\nLess stressed and ready to face whatever is going on\nMore positive and connected to others\nRelaxed and energized at the same time!\n\nPlus it’s just a lot of fun! We do simple activities\, with a bit of gentle movement and deep breathing\, to get ourselves “laughing for no reason.” We get loose and even a little silly\, but always completely at your own comfort level (camera off is fine if you choose!). \nFind out more about the worldwide\, research-backed practice at www.laughteryoga.org. \nI’m a certified Laughter Yoga leader as well as a health coach\, and I love this practice because it’s a super-simple and fun way to empower ourselves and boost our resilience. Exactly what we need these days! \nI hope to see you! There’s a donation button here but it is truly optional\, I do this for fun and to spread the power of laughter! \nDonation Amount\n	\n	\n\n		\n\n\n\n\n	\n	\n	\n	\n	\nPhoto by Dan Cook on Unsplash

SUMMARY:Got Leaks? Learn How to Train the Pelvic Floor to Reduce or Stop Them [Zoom]
DESCRIPTION:It’s hidden in a private area of the body. But it’s so important to our quality of life\, in the bathroom\, bedroom and beyond! \nLet’s reduce or even stop leaks and other issues by getting to know and care for our dear pelvic floor in this lighthearted but impactful 1-hour workshop. \nPlease fill out my quick waiver and questionnaire (click here) when signing up. It mentions donations but they are truly optional. I appreciate anyone who attends\, donation or no! ? \nWe’ll practice together: \n– Breathing in a way that nourishes these often-tight muscles\, and as an extra bonus\, it also helps with posture and back pain! \n– Tuning in and sending care and appreciation to this neglected body part. \n– Doing Kegel exercises in an optimal way (most people’s technique is a bit off). \n– Bracing the pelvic floor\, which helps stop leaks and protects us when lifting a bag of mulch or a child 🙂 \n– Adding an inner-thigh squeeze to strengthen the pelvic floor (bring a cushion or soft ball if you have one!) \nPlus I’ll sing my “Pelvic Name Game” song at the end! \nWhat to bring: Please have a squishy ball or cushion that you can squeeze between your thighs. \nEven though I’m in the health/fitness field\, I didn’t know how to train my pelvic floor effectively (except “do Kegels”?) until June 2023. I’m a certified health coach\, personal trainer (age 64) and now a teacher of Pfilates\, a Pilates-inspired pelvic floor training program created by urogynecologist Dr. Bruce Crawford. \nSimply fill out my quick waiver and questionnaire (click here) to sign up. It mentions donations but they are truly optional. Hope to see you! \n

SUMMARY:How to Reduce Low Back Pain at Home: Zoom Workshop with Guest Trainer!
DESCRIPTION:Our low back takes the brunt of stress over time from stiffness and weakness from other joints like the shoulders and hips \nBut the good news is that chronic low back pain does not always mean we need medical treatments like cortisone shots\, surgeries or other medications. You can start reducing back pain\, freeing up your joints and moving better with exercises right in the comfort of your own home! \nJoin me for this event and learn how\, from Michelle Richards\, a highly experienced personal trainer (in person and online) and a movement coach who specializes in teaching people how to move pain-free\, especially women over 50. \nOne of my health coaching clients\, a woman over 50\, told me that her sessions with Michelle caused more lasting positive change in her body than anything else she’d experienced. When I met Michelle\, I understood why (and also loved her as a person)\, and I was excited that she accepted my invitation to present this session\, which we are also offering to the Finding Female Friends Past 50 free nationwide group. \nRegister by filling out Michelle’s form here. \nA recording will be sent to all registered participants in case you can not make it to the live session\, so please register even if you are not sure you can join. The workshop is free with optional donations to support Michelle’s work and help get it out to more people. She appreciates small contributions and also appreciates everyone who attends\, donation or no! ? \nWhat to bring: Michelle will ask everyone to try a few exercises with an option to try one on the floor. If you prefer to use a yoga mat or towel while in a lying position\, please bring it to the session. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nMichelle Richards\n\nMichelle Richards is the owner of a Health and Wellness Coaching Group called MNC Collective. They specialize in customized nutrition coaching\, customized workout plans (or what they call movement plans)\, virtual personal training and health/life coaching! Michelle is the Movement Coach and her colleague Colleen Baugh\, an Occupational Therapist\, is the Nutrition Coach. Together they are the Collective!\nMichelle’s former gym – Tampa Movement Lab – pioneered the movement “movement” in Tampa Bay in 2016 (the idea that exercise is both for movement health and aesthetics). As technology became more advanced and more routine after the Covid shut down\, she sold her brick and mortar studio in 2024 to work with clients remotely. She received her Masters Degree in Human Performance in 2013 and has been working with clients and athletes since 2009. In the last 5 years\, she has been working primarily with clients with chronic joint pain and has worked closely with PT’s\, Chiros and OT’s with clients when they are post-operative and cleared for exercise.

SUMMARY:On Zoom: Make Nutrition Simple!
DESCRIPTION:Clear the confusion and finally make the changes that make sense! \nWith so much nutrition information available\, it can be really confusing to know what might be best for you. I’ve invited a terrific colleague\, nutrition coach Colleen Baughn\, to present an engaging\, interactive 1-hour virtual workshop on the simple and sustainable changes you can make to use food to: \n\nIncrease your energy (without caffeine)\nImprove digestion (bye bye bloating)\nAnd\, optimize your body composition (without starving yourself) to get out and live your best life!\n\nNone of what will be shared subscribes to any specific “diet” or requires any kind of crazy supplement. Instead\, you will learn how to use the foods you are already eating (with just a few tweaks) to make lasting changes.  \nWe’re posting this workshop in the free nationwide group Finding Female Friends Past Fifty (FFF>50) on Mighty Networks. You can also sign up directly by filling out Colleen’s form here. Female guests under 50 are also very welcome. \nColleen has spent two decades in the health and fitness industry as a licensed occupational therapist and as a nutrition coach. Her own history of autoimmune disease led her to uncover the nutritional keys that unlocked her own health\, and now she focuses her efforts on teaching others! \nColleen works together with trainer Michelle Richards\, whom I recently invited to present the terrific “How to Reduce Knee Pain with Exercise at Home” workshop.  In their shared practice\, the MNC Collective\, they provide women\, especially peri- and post-menopausal\, with nutrition coaching and physical training to help them feel their best. They’re both passionate about sharing accurate and helpful information with as many women as possible – that’s why I love them\, and why they agreed to offer these optional donation-based events. Donations are truly optional\, and payment information is available on the signup form.  \nReach out to me or Colleen with any questions\, or go ahead and sign up here at no cost! Hope to see you! \n

One time is still considered within the normal range\, but more than once is called nocturia\, and it deserves our attention. \nIf this sounds familiar\, please join me on Sunday\, Nov. 17 at 1 pm Pacific/4 pm Eastern on Zoom to investigate the causes and remedies! \nIt’s important to talk to your doctor about nocturia\, of course\, BUT there are also lots of modifiable\, non-medical reasons why this might be happening. \nFactors include pelvic floor weakness\, our habits\, and what/when we are drinking (in my case\, fizzy water was a culprit!). \nIn this interactive workshop\, we’ll investigate possible causes (which may be different for each person) and practice effective strategies and simple daily exercises that can help. \nIn my case\, I used to get up 2-3 times\, and now I’m down to 0-1! ? \nImportant: When signing up\, please also fill out my short questionnaire/waiver at this link\, thank you! \nWhat to bring: Please bring a squishy ball or cushion that you can squeeze between your thighs. Also please bring something you can use to take notes\, thank you! \nI’m a certified health coach\, personal trainer (age 63) and teacher of Pfilates\, a Pilates-inspired pelvic floor training program created by urogynecologist Dr. Bruce Crawford. \nThis workshop is free with truly optional donations to support this work and help get it out to more women. I appreciate small contributions and also appreciate everyone who attends\, donation or no! ? \nImportant: When signing up\, please also fill out my short questionnaire/waiver at this link if you haven’t yet done so. Thank you and hope to see you! \nDonation Amount
