Self Care When the World Is On Fire
Regular price
$45.00
Self care is even more important right now.
Our bodies don't know the difference between personal danger and danger we hear about in the news. So if you're feeling anxious, revved up, or simply off, you're not alone. Wild times call for even more self care, and yet, it can feel even more difficult. So what do we do?
This workshop will give you super simple ways to care for yourself when it feels impossible to do so. Learn how to soothe your nervous system in a number of ways to help you during these wild times.
Join us from 10:45 am - 12:15 pm on September 13 for this encouraging and practical workshop as part of Fall Wellness Weekend at The Perch!
