reminiscence sessions

Reminiscence sessions are structured gatherings where individuals, often seniors or those with memory challenges, share memories and life stories from their past. These sessions can involve discussing photographs, music, or simple prompts to encourage storytelling. The goal is to stimulate memory, promote social interaction, and enhance emotional well-being by connecting individuals to their personal history. They are typically facilitated by a trained professional or caregiver to create a supportive environment, helping participants feel valued and engaged while fostering a sense of identity and community.
