QUILTERS&SEWING

We hope the holidays were joyful for each of you as we ride the COVID 19 roller coaster. For those of you who enjoy sewing, we would like to invite you to join us in the West Room Sunday – Friday, from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. However, during the COVID 19 pandemic we are able to sew in the West Room as long as it is permissible by State and County guidelines. We have posted COVID 19 guidelines at the door of the West Room. Bags, Bags, and Bags ! Pat Keyes has been working diligently on custom embroidered bags. She is selling the bags for prices that range from $20 to $30. Pat will donate $10 from each bag sold to Shelter from The Storm. Come on by the West Room during sewing hours and help Pat raise money for the Coachella Valley ’ s only domestic violence shelter.

Having a Positive Attitude is Good for Your Health.

There is a growing body of evidence that having a positive attitude does a body good. The benefits of positive thinking include an increased life span, lower rates of depression, lower levels of distress, greater resistance to the common cold, better psychological and physical well - being, a reduced risk of death from cardio- vascular disease, and better coping skills during hard- ships and times of stress. Why having a positive outlook is beneficial to health... I feel it has to do with better stress management; I also believe that positive thinkers are more likely to be active and health conscious. What is clear is that looking on the bright side and expecting good things to happen are worthwhile endeavors that benefit body, mind and spirit for a lifetime. People who had more positive attitudes toward aging dealt better with stress than people with negative atti- tudes. Another, titled “ Negative perceptions of aging modify the association between frailty and cognitive function in older adults. Personality and Individual differences, found that a positive attitude toward aging may help prevent older adults from becoming frail. We live in such a beautiful area. Let's all treat each other with respect and stay positive!! With all the inevitable changes that will come our way. ... CHANGE should be thought of as being positive. Don't worry... Be happy and stay healthy • If anyone would like to check out hand weights from the gym, please email me @ bodybyxyng@gmail.com.
