CER to offer upcoming community activities

Fairmont Community Education & Recreation (CER) will offer two upcoming community activities. First, the Art of Aging Well: Peel Years Off Your Bio Age will be held 6-7:30 p.m. Monday, Sept. 30, online via Zoom. Your chronological age is the number of years you have been alive. It is a fixed number and cannot be changed. Your biological or bio age, however, is measured by how well all of your organs and body systems work. And there are many things you can do to affect your biological age. You have more control over how your body ages than you may think. Research has shown us that you can peel years off your bio age. In this workshop, you will learn simple, scientifically proven things you can do right now to decrease your body age. Also, you will learn facial acupressure points to help erase years from your face naturally. The fee is $29. Registration closes September 26. Next, Face Yoga will be held 6-7:30 p.m. Tuesday, Oct. 1, online via Zoom. There are over 30 individual muscles on each side of your face, all of which can be strengthened and toned, just like arm or leg muscles. Facial exercises can take years off your appearance by reducing frown and forehead lines, reducing “puppet mouth’ lines, lifting and firming neckline, making upper and lower cheeks fuller, reduce puffiness and sagging around eyes, improve circulation and nutrient flow into cells and improve lymph circulation. Learn simple exercises that will rejuvenate your face. You will need a regular teaspoon for a few of the exercises and a little of your favorite facial moisturizer. The fee is $29. Registration closes September 27. For further information, call CER at (507) 235-3141 or www.fairmont.k12.mn.us/o/cer.
