Presented by Kathy Thomson

Registration REQUIRED - you need not attend all sessions.

All events are tentatively scheduled and may change. Please see the CMCL Events Calendar on our website, follow us on social media, and subscribe to our weekly eNewsletter for any and all updates.

Join us for a 4-week course all about wellness - 

August 1st: What is Wellness: We will talk about what wellness means and explore the eight dimensions of wellness: physical, intellectual, emotional, social, spiritual, financial, occupational, environmental.

August 8th: Strategies for Better Sleep: In this workshop we will cover why sleep is important, what happens when we don’t get enough sleep/quality sleep, the negative impact of stress on sleep, five strategies to improve sleep and how to create a “sleep sanctuary.”

August 22nd: Self-Compassion: Are you kinder to others than you are to yourself? Research shows the benefits of being a friend to yourself, and is a critical practice in the cultivation of resilience during stressful times in your life. Reviewing the work of Kristin Neff and Christopher Germer we will discuss the benefits of mindful self-compassion and easy tools to help you improve your relationship with yourself.

August 29th: Practicing Gratitude: Creating a gratitude practice can strengthen your immune system, lower your blood pressure, help you sleep, improve your mood and your response to chronic pain. Through easy practices, such as keeping a gratitude journal, writing letters of thanks and meditating we can bring joy back into our lives.

This is a 4-class series being held on Thursdays, 6pm-7pm at the Stone Harbor Library on the above dates. You need not attend all sessions.
