Creative Sustainably Class “MANAGING HYPERTENSION, DIABETES, & FALLS”
2023-05-20 11:00 - 12:00
Welcome to the Creative Sustainably Class on “Managing Hypertension, Diabetes, & Falls”! In this class, we will explore effective ways to manage three common health issues that affect millions of people around the world: hypertension, diabetes, and falls.
Hypertension, or high blood pressure, is a condition in which the force of blood against the walls of the arteries is consistently too high. It can lead to serious health problems if left untreated, including heart disease, stroke, and kidney damage.
Diabetes is a chronic condition that occurs when the body is unable to produce or use insulin effectively. This results in high levels of glucose in the blood, which can cause a wide range of health problems, including nerve damage, blindness, and kidney disease.
Falls, on the other hand, are a major concern for older adults, and can lead to serious injuries, such as hip fractures and head trauma. Falls can occur due to a variety of factors, including poor balance, weakened muscles, and medication side effects.
Throughout this class, we will discuss practical strategies and creative solutions for managing these health issues, with a focus on sustainable and long-term solutions. We will explore lifestyle changes, such as diet and exercise, as well as medication management and other medical interventions. We will also discuss how to manage these conditions in a way that promotes independence and quality of life.
By the end of this class, you will have a better understanding of how to effectively manage hypertension, diabetes, and falls, and will be equipped with the tools and knowledge to promote your own health and well-being. Let’s get started!

Spirit in the land at Duke Gardens
2023-03-05 12:00 - 16:00 | Duke Gardens, 420 Anderson Street, Durham, NC, 27705, United States
Slice 325 will be dong a demo of sharing flavor as art (sense of taste) at the event!
Spirit in the Land is a contemporary art exhibition that examines today’s urgent ecological concerns from a cultural perspective, demonstrating how intricately our identities and natural environments are intertwined. Through their artwork, thirty artists show us how rooted in the earth our most cherished cultural traditions are, how our relationship to land and water shapes us as individuals and communities. The works reflect the restorative potential of our connection to nature and exemplify how essential both biodiversity and cultural diversity are to our survival.
These artists explore the ways in which our inner spaces mirror our outer ones in works that both celebrate the profound beauty of our world and mourn its loss, and with it, vanishing histories of people and place.
As the battles against climate change are often most critical for marginalized communities— environmental justice is social and racial justice—the exhibition and catalogue center the voices of artists who approach ecological awareness through a close attention to the communities most negatively affected. Acting as environmental stewards, the artists reclaim and revitalize our understanding of nature as a repository of cultural memory, a place of sanctuary, a site of resistance, and a source of spiritual nourishment and healing. As land and water provide a sense of belonging and community, the exhibition illustrates our interdependence with all life on Earth.
Spirit in the Land has its roots in North America, with shoots reaching into the Caribbean. While these artists investigate natural environments under stress, the exhibition presents a belief in the possibility of transformation and regeneration. Our desire to live in harmony with nature is ultimately what will determine our future.
This exhibition is organized by Trevor Schoonmaker, Mary D.B.T. and James H. Semans Director, Nasher Museum.

Hope to see you there!

Community Garden Workday “Worm Bin” Last DAY
2022-10-09 07:00 - 10:00 | CAARE, 214 Broadway St, Durham, 27701, United States
This is a 3-day plead for HELP! Now we are on our last day of the big clean up. We need to clean out our worm bin. This is very important to ensure our new batch of worms have a great start. All the help we could get will be very much appreciated. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions about this project.

P.S. Its going to be a dirty job! Also, for your help we would gift a $5 gift card to one of the local Breweries or Starbucks gift card!

Don’t forget to add this event to you Calander!
