Description of Course
This program is a joyful exploration of play and creativity. Play will be the major experience during this session. When scientists began tracking the health of 268 Harvard sophomores in 1938 during the Great Depression, they hoped the longitudinal study would reveal clues to leading healthy and happy lives. Dr. George Vaillant became the director of the Harvard men study and two other studies that interviewed cohorts from their early years into their eighties and nineties. Vaillant captured the major insights for aging well and found that one of the great keys to successful aging was finding ways to play, be creative, and experience lifelong learning.
Come join us for a morning exploring play, creativity, and the success factors to aging well. We will identify the six major factors identified by Dr. Vaillant while focusing on play and creativity. We will play and identify what play is and how it helps people live a healthy and successful life. We will also look at creativity, the cousin of play, and how play and creativity are alike and how they differ. This certainly will be relevant to coaches…and everyone who seeks to explore, experience, and express the joy of living. You will have full permission to play and find the deeper meaning and value of play and creativity for living life to its full potential.
1.5 Resource CCEU’s will be offered on request to anyone attending the entire event. C’mon in. The water is warm and inviting!
