The Well—Group Wellness Circle
An hour long Free Monthly Virtual Class dedicated to caregivers and women in hormonal transitions.
Stephanie Sandleben, FMCHC
Starting Monday, March 31st 12pm - 1pm, PST
On-going the last Monday of each month
Amidst these tumultuous times, I’ve been searching for a way to provide some comfort and ease to those who already have too much on their plates.
Each month’s circle will have a dedicated topic including practical strategies, mind-body exercises, journal prompts and opportunities for sharing.
Getting Out of Overwhelm is the focus for our first circle. You can sign-up for each monthly circle individually or save your spot each month.
For April, Organizing Community Care will be our focus and includes building out our support network.
And the best part, this is free for anyone subscribed to my newsletter!
It’s hard to know where to start in your wellness journey. Self care seems like a luxury rather than a necessity for those who are juggling parenting, caretaking and careers.
However, when we’re struggling and others are dependent on us, everyone in our ecosystem suffers, too.
Getting out of overwhelm can be the first step of your wellness journey. The state of busyness has been normalized (and even prized!) by North American hustle culture. Yet, it impacts our health in so many ways.
First we’ll take stock of our commitments and what is contributing to the overwhelm. We’ll practice some mindfulness techniques like breath awareness and a short meditation to reduce stress and enhance emotional well-being.
What we’ll cover in this class:
Clarifying our needs and desires and ways to communicate them clearly with family and friends.
Practice setting healthy boundaries; learning how to say “no” to additional responsibilities when you’re feeling overwhelmed.
Creating down time—engaging in hobbies and activities that bring joy and relaxation, such as reading, crafting or gardening.
Learn accessible mindfulness techniques that reduce overwhelm.
This class is for you if:
You are currently juggling way more than seems sane for any one human.
You are a caregiver to children, aging parents or loved ones.
You identify with being in “The Sandwich” generation.
You are going through a hormonal life transition—becoming a parent/mother, postpartum or perimenopause.
Say “yes” to support and join us the last Monday of each month for The Well—Group Wellness Circle!
