DAYLIGHT SAVINGS TIME begins at 2:00
A.M. so don't forget and prepare yourself
to "spring forward" with your clocks this
month. St. Patrick's Day is corned beef and cabbage for our
Irish Themed dinner that chef will prepare for you so don't
miss out. MARCH MADNESS is in the air! It's Basketball
season. Who will you cheer for? Also it's time to start thinking
about your art projects and get them ready for the Resident
Art Show to showcase your creative spirit.
Watermark University focuses on stimulating the mind and
strengthens the body which has enormous benefits at any age and
may even slow the process of memory loss. Besides being good for
you, keeping your brain and the body active and engaged does
not just improve our life - it's a whole lot of fun! When your day
seems topsy, turvy and as stormy as can be, there's nothing quite as
tranquil as a nice hot cup of tea. Come join me for a cup of hot Tea
and a sweet treat. We will be discovering teas from around the
world. While the custom of afternoon tea originated in Europe, the
beverage itself has ties around the world. Check the calendar for
exact date and time. We can't wait to have you join us!

May good luck be with you
wherever you go, and your
blessings outnumber the
shamrocks that grow. What
else is happening in the
month of March? It's Girl
Scout Month, so that means
cookies, oh yes… Women’s
History Month which is a
celebration of contributions
and achievements from
women. March 14 is the start of Daylight Saving Time, which
begins at 2:00 A.M. Don’t forget to “spring forward” or you may find
yourself an hour late to everything! The Start of Spring, on this day,
the Sun rises exactly in the east and sets exactly in the west—a
good thing to know if you get lost in the woods or at the beach if
you live at Sea Bluffs. According to folklore, wear a sprig of
rosemary in your hair to improve your memory! I hope you find
yourself smiling at the fact that sunshine is just around the corner
so get that pedicure booked ASAP, the sun is on its way! We have
an exciting line up of activities and events in the March calendar.
Irish Blessing
Let it go..... Wind down before bedtime
and have a peaceful sleep. Meditation is
a great way for you to release negative
thoughts before sleep and YOGA is
great to help relieve tension. Try
a Fusion class which is known to help
you go to bed with a clear mind as you
are guided through a process of
detachment of negativity. This
mindful exercise will help ease you into
a restful and relaxing sleep whilst
instilling passivity at the same time.
Indulge your body & soul in this relaxing
yoga and meditation session. This all-
sensory experience is done while seated.
enthusiasts report reduced stress,
decreased pain, increased range of
motion, improved posture, and an
increased feeling of overall well-being.
Path to Well-Being
February is gone and we begin a new month. We celebrated all month
long in February as there are so many holidays. First we all waited for the
results and Punxsutawney Phil saw his shadow in 2021, which means we
are in for six more weeks of winter. We all watched the Super Bowl LV (55)
game and ate nachos and pretzels while watching the big game. Chinese
New Year was celebrated with a themed dinner menu of great food and
fortune cookies. Valentines Day was all about being with our friends and
connecting with the ones we love so dearly. Two days later was Mardi Gras
aka "Fat Tuesday" and our dining staff pulled out all the stops and we had
a themed dinner to celebrate. Wednesday was Ash Wednesday and Fr.
Phillip from St. Edwards church distributed ashes for anyone who wanted
them. March is on the way and we can't wait for spring!
