Lectures with Road Scholar: Age Well: The Power of Nature - Boosting Health & Happiness


Most of us know that spending time in nature feels good, but research shows that the benefits are deeper and more far-reaching than you might expect. Join Dr. Catherine Sanderson, author and expert in positive psychology, to explore how green and blue spaces like oceans, rivers and lakes can reduce stress, ease anxiety, improve creativity and even aid physical healing. In this Age Well lecture, you’ll learn why even a houseplant or a glimpse of the outdoors matters and you’ll walk away with simple ways to bring more nature into your daily life. A viewing of the online lecture will be held in the Event Center at Abbot Public Library, followed by a discussion session. Registration is required and limited to 35. Please register at tinyurl.com/RS-Nature. Can't attend in person? Please register for the program or join the Wait List. Everyone who is registered will be sent the recording. This lecture is part of the "Age Well" series, designed to provide valuable insights, expert guidance, and practical tools for navigating the aging journey with confidence. These programs explore key topics related to aging, from health and wellness to planning for the future, offering meaningful perspectives and resources for older adults and caregivers alike. Dr. Catherine Sanderson is the Poler Family Professor of Psychology at Amherst College, with degrees from Stanford University and Princeton University. She has published over 25 journal articles and book chapters, five college textbooks, and two trade books - "The Positive Shift: Mastering Mindset to Improve Happiness, Health, and Longevity" and "Why We Act: Turning Bystanders Into Moral Rebels." Dr. Sanderson speaks regularly and is passionate about sharing practical science-based strategies people can use to improve their daily lives. This program is sponsored by the Friends of Abbot Public Library. Photo Courtesy of Road Scholar
