Healthy ageing for over 60s
First Beckum Health Week for senior citizens
With appealing and mostly free offers, the first Beckum Health Week from 2 to 6 June combines interesting facts, exercise and enjoyable cooking - all tailor-made for an active and fulfilling life in old age.
Inspiring lectures for a vital life
During the health week, specialist presentations on the topics of care insurance, recognising loneliness, fall prevention and medication in old age provide valuable tips and leave room for questions.
On the market days in Beckum and Neubeckum on 4 and 6 June, the care and housing advice service and other exhibitors on the subject of ageing in Beckum will also be presenting their services.
Active courses for body and mind
The health week also includes a variety of age-appropriate courses on the programme. While gymnastics, dance or aqua gymnastics are all about physical activity, yoga, forest bathing, memory training or "open singing" focus on the mind and soul.
The courses offer space for social interaction and promote a sense of community, an important health factor in old age. The "heart counselling sessions" in particular allow people to exchange ideas and talk about what is good for them.
Healthy cooking for enjoyment and joie de vivre
A culinary highlight of the health week is the cookery workshop led by a qualified nutritionist on the topic of "Healthy heart nutrition" in the VHS kitchen. Eating together is on the agenda at the Neubeckum leisure centre and the Mütterzentrum e. V. multigenerational centre. Both centres invite you to a healthy breakfast.
Gain in quality of life
Anyone who wants to live actively and consciously, even at an advanced age, is invited to be inspired and discover new ways to lead a vital lifestyle. And if you like the taster sessions, you can continue them via the VHS from the autumn.
