Join our Hosts, Joyce and Mary Beth with special guest Amber Voorheis; Community Relations Director for Cypress Hospice Care as they dive into the often avoided conversations around death, End-of-Life care and the afterlife. Amber shares unique insights from her yoga journey, personal stories about her family, and the lessons learned from her patients in hospice care.
This intimate conversation with Amber will take you through the corridors of hospice care, its role in end-of-life situations, and how it helps families navigate their grief journey. Amber speaks to the significance of health and mobility as we age and preaches the importance of self-care and mental wellbeing for health care workers now more than ever.
It doesn't stop at healthcare --discussions into the power of neuroplasticity, the role of diet and exercise in brain health, and how a daily 10-minute meditation practice can make a significant difference. Also, the impact of exposing children to the elderly and how volunteering can enrich their lives. Lastly, the group touches upon the challenges of elderly healthcare, the importance of geriatric specialists, and the power of community and connection in difficult times. So, tune in and let's embark on this journey of hope, resilience, and gratitude together.
