More about how this exciting project started...My blog and business is about helping people follow their heart and acting on their innate strength and wisdom when moving through life transitions toward their ideal life.
An idea occurred to me recently that initiated this project, that there is no one better to consult and to gain valuable insight, wisdom and advice from about life’s transitions, than the elderly population.
The intention is also to bring families and friends together to talk, listen, share and then be inspired and spread the positive experience with others.
The intention of this project named “Inspiration Surrounds Us” is also to provide a platform and voice to those people over 70 and older who want to share their wisdom.
This population may live independently or may be residents in retirement homes in Canada and the United States. And therefore a signed release of information sheet may be required.
By posting this group's wisdom and life stories to this blog, I hope to reach and help people who are looking for answers about how to deal with the challenges often faced in life.I hope that the wisdom shared here will inspire others so that they apply the lessons in their own lives.
Having worked with the elderly many years ago for several years, I know the comedy, wit, and passion that exists in the many stories shared. I believe many families will benefit from hearing the stories and advice that the elderly population can provide.
Please visit my website http://www.embraceyourlife.ca/ and scroll to the section "Special Interest Volunteer Projects" and download the Inspiration Surrounds Us Activity. It is a one-paged exercise with detailed instructions of how to facilitate this exercise.
I am open to feedback so feel free to contact me to discuss your questions and concerns. If you want your organization to participate or share your own story and wisdom or that of your family or friend, please contact me or post your comments here.
The blog will be updated with developments as the project gains momentum and each organization and person or family will be notified when their submissions will be posted.
Please feel free to visit my website and Embrace Change blog to learn more about me and my projects and services.
Thank you for your cooperation and shared enthusiasm about the “Inspiration Surrounds Us” project!
Best wishes,
