Taking Care of Ourselves While We Take Care of Others: Circle of Support
Many of us are exceptional caretakers, meeting the physical and emotional needs of our partners, children, parents, clients, and other family members. Though nurturing others can be quite fulfilling, it can leave us drained and unable to maintain our own emotional and physical well-being.
In this supportive group, Lois Freedman, M.Ed., a gifted and empathic group leader, will help you discover the balance between nurturing ourselves and taking care of our loved ones. We will learn self-care strategies for health and wellbeing while engaging in our most challenging relationships- with our children, adolescents, spouses, aging parents and co-workers.
Space is Limited to 25 people.
Nov. 15, 2009: 9:15-10:45 AM at Temple Israel of Sharon, pre-registration is required.
Women’s Pregnancy Circle
Pregnancy is an exciting, joyous time in your life. You also may have feelings about the physical changes of pregnancy, work commitments and the journey to becoming a mother. We will create a sacred space to discuss emotions and ways to take care of yourself, share positive stories of labor and birth, and find balance as you enter this transformational time in your life.
