Activities to nourish the mind and heart.

Welcome!

This website introduces a series of aids that are transforming spiritual care giving to persons who have Alzheimer's disease or other forms of dementia or cognitive limitation.

These innovative materials:

• are easy to use by any care giver
• have been shown by rigorous research to be effective with Alzheimer's and other dementia patients
• apply proven multi-sensory methods developed by Dr. Maria Montessori to stimulate alert cognition
• present well-loved, familiar, joyful Christian scripture, stories, and principles
• stimulate spiritual alertness and pleasure through touch, sight, sound, and aroma 

Alzheimer's and dementia patients receive wonderful outcomes:

• five times as much alertness and pleasure in response to this style of spiritual presentation as to the traditional "talk to only" style
• comfort from heightened spiritual connection, despite Alzheimer's disease, other dementia, or other impairment
• more frequent visits from friends or pastoral care givers who know that their spiritual care is meaningful
