Update from Mitchell Yancey Substance Abuse Task Force

Good morning all, hope you are looking forward to a restful weekend! Below are some important updates on virtual services:

  1. Home Remedies – Community Options Addressing Pain and Stress:Classes continue this Saturday, May 16 at 10am with Margot Rossi M.Ac. L.Ac presentation “No BODY Left Behind: Integrating Mind and Body. These days, there’s a blizzard of stresses taking up our attention. Many of us are reporting more anxiety, worry, fears, frustrations, and uncertainty about the future. With those concerns comes a yearning for reassurance, resolution and ease. Participants will learn an essential mindfulness practice that can be done anywhere, anytime, to help us reset and restore: the body scan. This simple practice of tuning your attention into your physical body, scanning from toes to head, helps regulate the nervous system, calm the mind and relax the body.
