Wellness Opportunities

Classes, resources, and more to help older adults live active, full lives.

PEARLS (Program to Encourage Active, Rewarding Lives)

2nd Half with Lyngblomsten is a PEARLS provider and host site in partnership with the Faith Community Nurse Network of the Greater Twins Cities.

PEARLS helps older adults experiencing low mood develop skills they need to maintain their health, happiness, and independence through a series of one-on-one coaching sessions with a trained PEARLS coach. Individuals will develop goals to improve physical health and social skills over eight sessions..

Sessions can be held on the Lyngblomsten campus in St. Paul, at the Faith Community Nurse Network's office in Mahtomedi, online, or via telephone.  

Click here for more information about the PEARLS program.

To learn more for yourself or someone you know, contact Lynn Amon, Program Coordinator for 2nd Half with Lyngblomsten and a PEARLS coach, at (651) 301-9445 or lamon@lyngblomsten.org.  You also can complete an online form for more information by clicking here.

Wellness Education

2nd Half with Lyngblomsten is excited to offer evidence-based wellness classes* for helping older adults of all abilities live active, full lives.  These classes provide an opportunity to connect with others while gaining tools that can help you take control of your health and manage it in a way that works best for your life.

Some of the benefits of participating in a class can include:

  • Increasing your self-confidence
  • Gaining practical skills for managing your health
  • Improving your problem-solving
  • Receiving support from other participants and instructors
  • Starting to live the healthy life that you want to live!

2nd Half with Lyngblomsten’s evidence-based wellness classes are part of the Juniper network and are offered in partnership with the Faith Community Nurse Network of the Greater Twin Cities.

Upcoming Classes for Winter 2023 (all held weekly):

  • Powerful Tools for Caregivers (January 31–March 14) 

    This class helps family and friends caring for older adults with long-term health conditions develop the skills and confidence to better care for themselves while caring for others.

    for a flyer with more information, and click here to register.
  • Check back throughout the year for information on new classes in 2023, including A Matter of Balance and Living Well with Chronic Conditions.

All classes are FREE thanks to Lyngblomsten’s collaborative partnership with the Faith Community Nurse Network of the Greater Twin Cities and financial support from the Lyngblomsten Foundation.  (Donations are gratefully accepted to either organization.)

Here’s what Juniper participants are saying about evidence-based wellness classes:

“I came away with such a positive attitude and so much more knowledge about preventing falls!”

“After taking this class, I am [a] more confident caregiver!  Having tools to resolve problems in a definite advantage in becoming a better caregiver and a happier, wiser, healthier me and a healthier ‘us’!”

“I have learned there are people like me, not living life to the fullest because of a chronic condition, and that we can move forward.”

Yes, I'm interested in future wellness opportunities!

New wellness classes are added each quarter, so be sure to check this web page throughout the year for the latest details!

*What is an evidence-based wellness class?  According to Juniper, an evidence-based wellness class is based on rigorous research and is proven to produce results.  Certified leaders are experts at presenting class content and connecting class participants with each other.  All evidence-based wellness classes offered through 2nd Half with Lyngblomsten are part of the Juniper network, a statewide program helping communities across Minnesota create a culture of health for older adults where prevention and wellness are norms.  Learn more about Juniper and its work at https://yourjuniper.org/about.
