BDN previews presentation on aging, mental health
The Bangor Daily News reported Rabbi Richard Address will deliver presentations in Greater Bangor, including at the University of Maine, for family caregivers, along with health care providers, spiritual leaders and others who interact regularly with older adults. Address is a proponent of “sacred aging,” his philosophy that people of any faith background — or none — can find strength and support in spiritual texts and rituals that confer meaning and dignity on the milestones of advancing years, according to the article. Address will deliver the free talk, “Sacred Approaches to Aging and Mental Health,” from 3:30 to 5 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 22 in Barrows Hall, the article states.
