Curious about older adults’ perspectives on wisdom? Jennifer Smith, AVP & Director of Mather Institute, recently discussed this under-studied area of aging with McKnight's Senior Living. Her conversation with Kimberly Bonvissuto revealed some of the surprising findings from the Institute’s research brief, “Words of Wisdom,” which explores how people aged 55 and better define wisdom and what qualities they believe makes someone wise.

Our new beekeeping program at The Mather (brought to us by Alvéole) launched earlier this summer and we’re still buzzing with excitement! Residents celebrated #NationalHoneyBeeDay this week with a hands-on artisanal honey extraction workshop! Sustainability is important to us, and our talented chefs will use this hyper local honey in our food and beverages while the bees pollinate up to a few miles around the Tysons, VA area.

We're excited to present the summer release of our "Be Well, Read Well" seasonal book showcase, spotlighting book recommendations from our Mather Institute researchers. Reading not only enriches the mind, but can enhance empathy and emotional intelligence, which may boost brain health. In fact, researchers have found that readers of books, as opposed to periodicals, tend to live nearly two years longer. Check out these inspiring reads from our shelves! #InstituteInsights #ReadingSeries

Earlier this summer, Mather Institute partnered with three of our senior living communities to launch the Community Action Program. This month-long initiative featured resident-chosen volunteering activities and educational programs focused on youth outreach, including making children's books, offering resources to kids in foster care, and bundling diapers. Volunteering is a great way for older adults to engage with their community, boosting physical health and mental well-being. Our researchers are now evaluating the program's impact on residents' community engagement, belonging, and sense of purpose.
