MorningStar of Littleton’s WellStar Program

All of our MorningStar communities, including MorningStar of Littleton, provide our residents with our signature wellness program, WellStar. Offering an array of creative and enriching ways to stay active and productive, our programs integrate different modalities and senses for both the body and the mind. WellStar has five wellness components – physical, spiritual, intellectual, social, and food philosophy. 

Our daily assortment of physical wellness activities has been designed to meet a range of capabilities as well as a variety of interests. We also recognize meeting the spiritual needs of our seniors is vital to their wellbeing, and as such, our chapel is open to all faiths. MorningStar also offers non-denominational services on a regular basis along with bible study and hymn singing. While MorningStar was founded on a Judeo-Christian tradition, we honor all faiths at our communities, among both our residents and team members.

In terms of intellectual wellness, we understand that it is important for seniors to continue to stimulate their brains, and we offer a daily dose of brain calisthenics designed to introduce new ideas and practice cognitive skills. Furthermore, we do not neglect the importance of social wellness. Almost everything we do at MorningStar of Littleton enriches our community and advances our goal of building a family for life. Socializing comes in the form of organized events and activities or just informal gatherings discussing the day’s topics. 

We also do not forget the philosophy that healthy, nutritious food is the centerpiece of wellness and it becomes even more critical as we age. Our daily meals include the addition of foods that new research finds has tremendous healing power such as: berries, chocolate high in cocoa mass, Omega 3 fats, turmeric, and dark leafy greens.
