Vibrant Living: Inspirations to Energize Daily Life
Vibrant Living was written by Carmen Bowman and LaVrene Norton as a how-to guide to assist organizations in engaging people in directing their lives. Every page offers inspiration to energize daily life. It’s designed as a coffee table book to be displayed in living rooms and other places where people gather. Each page highlights the vibrant living that goes on in their homes. It is a scrapbook of photos and stories from organizations around the country highlighting the vibrant living that goes on in their homes. From ethnic celebrations to coffee klatch, from tree climbing to a quiet afternoon curled up on the couch, organizations are finding ways to make it possible for people to live lives full of interest, value, meaning and spontaneity. You'll be inspired to create more vibrant living in your own home with the hundreds of ideas offered in this book.
To create the scrapbook, we asked culture change nursing homes to submit their photos of vibrant living. We thank them all for their contributions and congratulate Providence Mount St Vincent on winning our cover photo contest. A special thanks also goes out to Perham Memorial Hospital and Home where Carmen spent a week observing vibrant living and was inspired for this project.
The book is a companion to the “Creating the Climate for Vibrant Living” workshop.
It’s big, beautiful and packed with stories, pictures and ideas about energizing daily life.
