Mindfulness Mondays - Mental Well-being
Each month, Dr. Rush invites you to slow down, breathe, and reconnect with yourself and your Parkinson’s community through a guided mindfulness practice. Together, we’ll explore simple ways to ground the body, calm the mind, and cultivate compassion and clarity that you can carry into your week.
Care Partner Conversations
Led by care partners, these webinars will bring together spouses, partners, family members, and friends who provide care—or anyone interested in learning more about caregiving and Parkinson’s disease.
