How Memories Inform Health
Class | Registration opens Sunday, August 16, 2026 2:00 PM
This program explores the powerful role memory plays in the health of older adults. As people age, long-term memories often become more vivid and influential, shaping identity and emotional well-being. Positive memories can offer comfort and stability, while unresolved or traumatic memories may contribute to stress, anxiety, or depression.
Dr. Orie Quinn, founder of the Ozark Holistic Center and frequent OLLI presenter, emphasizes that supporting older adults in processing and understanding their past can lead to improved mood, greater peace of mind, and better physical health.
This program will meet in person at OLLI Headquarters (HQ), located at 481 S. Shiloh Drive, Fayetteville, AR 72704. Please read your class reminder email for the exact room location.
Class changes occasionally happen; please watch for (and read) announcements or emails from OLLI regarding your class.
