As we age, our focus on health and well-being becomes increasingly important. While we navigate aging – either personally or through our loved ones – many of us consider new ways to live better, like making the move to an active, 55+ senior living community.
By making your new home in a community-living setting like The Village at Incarnate Word, you have a wide range of amenities and services right at your fingertips, designed to help you thrive in every aspect of your health. Plus, you are surrounded by supportive friends and dedicated staff who genuinely care. Check out some ideas below for nourishing different aspects of your health while enjoying life at The Village.
Environmental Health
The Village is conveniently located adjacent to the 53-acre Headwaters Nature Sanctuary, filled with trails for enjoying a brisk walk or bike ride. There are also numerous paved, accessible trails located around our campus and leading to the University of Incarnate Word. After a day of adventure, unwind in one of our serene community courtyards or on your private patio, enjoying the tranquility that surrounds you.
Intellectual Health
Keep your mind sharp as a resident of The Village! You can attend classes at the nearby University of the Incarnate Word, where there’s something for everyone, including lectures, sporting events, concerts, and art exhibitions. Engage in stimulating book clubs, connect with guest speakers, or challenge yourself with games like poker and mahjongg for a fulfilling mental workout.
Physical Health
The Village’s dedicated Fitness Instructor, Andrea, is eager to help every resident meet their fitness goals through personal training, massage therapy, and over 15 weekly classes to choose from. Prefer working out independently? Our fully equipped Wellness Center and heated indoor pool are available for your use at any time.
Spiritual Health
Spiritual Life at The Village includes daily Mass, weekly bible studies, and ample opportunities to gather as a community to lift each other up in prayer and love. Our four onsite chapels—St. Joseph’s Chapel, DeMatel & Angelique House Chapels, and our 24/7 Adoration Chapel—offer peaceful spaces for prayer, meditation, and reflection.
Social Health
The Village boasts a vibrant social calendar! Recently our residents have enjoyed a private tour of the Briscoe Western Art Museum, an evening with OPERA San Antonio at the Tobin Center for Performing Arts, and lunch at the Chart House restaurant at the top of the Tower of Americas. These activities provide great opportunities to connect with fellow residents and explore the local culture.
At The Village at Incarnate Word, everything is thoughtfully designed to elevate your living experience. From engaging activities and chef-prepared meals to 24/7 concierge services and maintenance support, we are here to meet your needs.
