The Healing Powers of Music with Graham Walker
“Music has incredible power. A song or a lyric can help us heal or find the strength to go on.”
Music with Graham provides an opportunity to reminisce, relax, and connect in a meaningful way through music selections, both the familiar and new. Music touches all aspects of the mind, body, and brain. The music sessions with Graham can provide engagement for the mind, can slow the rhythms of the body, and can uplift mood, which in turn can influence behavior.
The Circle Wellness Program
August 2022 to March 31, 2023
The Circle is our weekly free palliative wellness program offered on Tuesdays and Thursdays at Hospice House in Davis Bay. The Circle offers a selection of activities including meditation, gentle movement, art, music, legacy projects, educational workshops and more.
Each session includes a light lunch and refreshments. In addition to the scheduled activities, participants have access to support, information and resources, and the opportunity to socialize. Programming can also be made available virtually from home.
Doors open at 9:30, and volunteers are available until 12:30 for participants to be picked up.
To be eligible, participants need to have received a diagnosis of a life-limiting illness, and be independent with activities of daily living (or come to the program with assistance). You must pre-register with Hospice for The Circle program.
