Social/Activity Groups for Blind &Visually Impaired (self.Blind)
submitted by mavedenyz
So happy to have discovered this community and even happier to be a member.
I am not sure if this has been asked before, but I would like to know if any of you can recommend a social group based in Northern California. With my extroversion at an all-time high, it would be nice to make new friends and acquaintances while being out and about.
Any input is gladly appreciated. Happy holidays everyone!

Hello and welcome. It’s so great to hear that you’re feeling super extrovert. I have zero idea about a social group based in northern Cali. I live in soCal, and if you find out let me know.

are you a part of a social group or activity group whose members are most if not all blind or visually impaired? That is the type of group I am looking for.

thanks for the suggestions! unfortunately, I’ve been told by my doctor to stop yoga as to not aggravate my retinal detachment.
Are the people in your Dragon boat group blind/officially impaired, sighted, or a mix of both?

I'd tell your doctor to get off his fat ass and learn how many styles there are. Hatha yin chair yoga ect won't invreese your heartrate. Slow progression between poses with control is the most effective way to build muscle.

thank you for sending me the link. I will look into that, it’s very interesting.
To be fair, I am not sure if my doctor is aware of the various types of yoga. I will just have to do my due diligence and find one that suits me in my condition. What type of yoga are you doing or practicing?
