Summer Living and Brandermill Greens
We invite residents to take advantage of a little more sunshine in our beautiful Brandermill Greens during this last month of summer. This serene and relaxing space is perfect to unwind, connect, reflect, and gather to relax with friends. It’s a great spot for happy hour drinks by the gas fire pit, for relaxing with a book in a comfy rocking chair, or for a walk through the landscaped gardens. Start your day with a cup of coffee in the gazebo or end the night with a moonlight stroll along a lit pathway — enjoy the last of summer living in August.

Staying Busy Is the New Rx.
Brandermill woods creates opportunities to stay active with volunteer work, hobbies, and socializing which, according to a growing body of research, can be key factors in longevity. Results from The Health and Retirement Study and published online at Science Direct suggest that continuing to live with purpose by actively working and/or doing things that you enjoy may contribute to greater longevity and slow biological aging. So if you’re not already focused on something you love or making plans to get started, here’s your invitation to join in the fun — doctor’s orders!

Yappy Hour is a tail-wagging good time! Pets do more than warm our hearts — they play a part in healthy aging. Studies show that older adults who own pets are more likely to stay physically active, thanks to daily walks and playful routines that support cardiovascular health. Pet ownership has also been linked to lower blood pressure, reduced cholesterol, and decreased triglyceride levels. Beyond the physical benefits, pets provide emotional connection. According to the National Poll on Healthy Aging, pets help people feel loved and reduce feelings of loneliness. So if “pet people” are your kind of people, don’t miss the next Yappy Hour!

Cognitive Benefits of Competitive Games. Learning a new skill such as playing chess has been associated with slower memory decline in cognitively normal adults over age 70. Studies show improved reaction time, attention, memory, and overall cognition. Check out the social calendar and join fellow residents for a competitive game of Rummikub, Poker, or Wii Bowling. If you’re more interested in Pokeno, Spades or Euchre, there are a game nights and afternoons for those too. Research consistently supports the idea that such activities can enhance mental acuity and foster social connections. This could be your Ace in the Hole to improve overall health and well-being.
