EDEN ALTERNATIVE I

WEDNESDAY

• BRAINSTORM: Nothing is framed wrong. One is just looking for the next BEST answer.

• When taking picture, noticed that best light comes from within…when person is first acknowledged.

• Residents/Staff can be ‘’diamonds in the rough.’’

• Loneliness, helplessness and boredom are three moods NOT fixable w/medication.

• Care Partner is a better term than Caregiver.

THURSDAY

• There is NO ramp for dementia (POIGNANT)

• We have let meds be our master. If we get our foot caught in a bear trap we would probably give a Tylenol or stronger for the pain...instead of taking off the trap. (POIGNANT)

FRIDAY

• Be The Change That You See

• Staff Is Kept Happy With Positive Feedback – Not By Being Told Don’t...Constantly.

• EDEN PHILOSOPHY IS NOT A PLACE - IT'S A MINDSET

• Listen and Hear the Resident. You May Actually Want To Hear Some of What He/She Has To Say.

Antidotes

• Loneliness – Loving Companionship

• Boredom – Do things you enjoy and access to children, plants and animals

• Helplessness – Do something for another

LAGUNA HONDA had people from the EDEN ALTERNATIVE come and speak to us and present to the staff/residents at LHH. Here are my notes from the three day event.

COMMENTARIES ON LIVING SERIES BOOK 1 - J. KRISHNAMURTI

 

http://selfdefinition.org/krishnamurti/Jiddu_Krishnamurt_Commentaries_On_Living_1.pdf

---This is probably the best book I ever read. It was in the 1970's when I read many of Krishnamurti's books. As with many of his books, I found it very eye-opening. It was one of the many things that happened to me in the 1970's that turned my life around.

---The book is made up of 1 or 2 page explanations of what Krishnamurti has found life to be. It is very clear and to the point. I was fascinated with how crystal clear his vision was. I had never read anything like it. And that goes to this day. 

---My recommendation is to read a few pages to see if you agree. To further test my observation, find a two pager that pertains to you. I think you will agree that you never read a book like this. I'll bet that crystal clear and to the point will be in your mind somewhere. I think that you'll find yourself wanting to read more. Enjoy...!
