On Saturday, November 1, nonprofit UYM Charities (UYM) hosted its first Aging Well ‘Pop-Up’ for 15 older adult residents at Webster at Rye. The pop-up featured a 45-minute mindfulness program led by integrative holistic life coach and mindfulness teacher Gi Indoccio, LCMHC.

“It was inspiring to see the creative ways in which Gi was able to adapt mindfulness practices to fit the abilities of the participants,” said UYM Development Associate Rowan Wilson. “It was powerful to see seniors, especially those struggling with mobility and cognitive issues, focus in and find presence during the program.”

Aging Well is a donation-based program that provides access to integrative health and wellness services for older adults, many of whom are underserved or economically vulnerable. Aging Well reflects UYM’s broader commitment to address interconnected challenges facing communities, recognizing that individual well-being and community resilience are deeply connected.
