While attending a workshop for personal development called "Pursuit of Excellence", one of the commitments of this program is to volunteer time in the community. I washed dishes at a local Seniors center and also spent time with the Alzheimers Society of Canada, carrying out data entry of lists of Care Homes and facilities.  My Mother died of Alzheimers Dementia, its a disease that affects one in four families in Canada, and it has a horrific affect on those families, hence my interest, and I decided to write a program to include healing art, for the well being of Alzheimers patients, to improve the quality of their life. My program is titled the "The common sense approach to a healthy mind". It consists of a routine that care givers would excercise with their patients to stimulate their memory through the senses, and improve their mind and thereby their health. We learn from Norman Cousins book "Anatomy of an illness" that laughter is good for the heart, my program adds the premise  that "creativity is good for the mind". It is a proven scientific fact that this program has, an equal healing effect of any drug available to Alzheimers patients, with none of the side effects, for further information or a copy of the program please contact the following.
