Free Weekly Zoom Class - Finding Peace in the Storm

Share

Free Weekly Zoom Class at the Westport Senior Center
All are welcome!

The COVID-19 virus has sadly persisted and we are now, unfortunately, witnessing new spikes around the nation. Issues effecting the economy and jobs continue. Efforts to re-open, whatever the phase, are challenging and confusing. On top of all this, the protests against racial injustice have exploded onto the national scene, and the coming contentious election season is upon us... Bottom line:  There is a lot going on! Every aspect of our daily lives have been disrupted by COVID-19. Many people are feeling overwhelmed and defeated.

These are exceedingly stressful and challenging times for all of us, individually and collectively. 

The more skillfully we navigate these waters NOW, by facing the adversity and trauma we are experiencing with resilience, compassion and self-care, the happier and healthier we'll be as we move through this unprecedented time of difficulty... and the better we can protect ourself from negative, long term impact on our health in the future.

This "Mindful Healing" zoom class and support group is mind-body therapy and preventive medicine rolled into one.

The zoom class is a combination support group to share with each other and listen to each other. We can share how we're doing, what we are doing and how we are 'being' through this time.  We can experience the reality that we are all in this together! Together alone.

The sessions will include:

    • Guided practice and teachings in mindfulness and compassion
    • Support and tools for processing the difficult emotions each of us may be experiencing
    • Discussion
    • Q & A

As we learn ways to face the anxiety and uncertainty in the NOW... we are proactively addressing the trauma we are experiencing. This proactive approach can prevent the otherwise inevitable post traumatic stress that could result from living through these times, and the harmful health effects that this sort of prolonged stress can create. By taking care of ourselves now, in the midst of this storm, we can protect ourselves from the negative health effects that most often accompany stress.

Please free free to drop in. Attend one session or all.
