  • NEW! Person-Centered Dementia Care Planning

    Dementia is rarely treated as the terminal disease that it is. Standard advanced directives do not address the complex and unique issues that arise with advanced dementia, and more importantly, how one dies when living with dementia.

This workshop will share valuable resources on advance care planning for people with dementia so you can get the care you want and avoid the care you do not want. We'll discuss the Dementia Values and Priorities Tool which is designed to help you communicate your wishes regarding future care if you are living with dementia. After answering a series of questions related to the changes commonly seen in the progression of dementia, the tool will provide you with a document that can be added to your existing advance directive and shared with others.If registering as a couple, only add one person's name to the cart. The name of the attending partner will be asked as a question during the checkout process.

  • Seven Steps to Reverse or Prevent Diabesity (Virtual)

    Diabesity is a condition in which too much belly fat leads a person to symptoms ranging from mild blood sugar imbalance to full blown diabetes. Whether you have a little extra weight around the middle, insulin resistance or type 2 diabetes, the root of all these conditions is the same - problems with our diet, lifestyle, and exposure to environmental toxins. Most treatments focus on the downstream symptoms (elevated levels of glucose, cholesterol, blood pressure, triglycerides) and never get to why your levels are too high and how to change it.
