<Lunch Time "Tapping" for Stress Management & Resiliency>

The build up of stress has consequences for the mind and body. Poor sleep, lack of appetite, decreased productivity, decreased immunity, susceptibility to sickness, are some of the few, and we might find it difficult to get out of the vicious cycle of stress. Except, nowadays there are some very simple and effective ways to nip the stress bud so we can prevent the over-growth! Come, join, and learn and try "Tapping" - a simple stress management method to add to your tool box. A brief introduction (and actually doing it) is all you need so we can better Tap into calm.

When: Noon ~ 12:30, most Fridays starting August 28.
Where: Drop In Zoom (Initial download/setup likely required for phone/computer)
What: 1. "Tapping" similar to this video "Trauma Tapping Technique."
2. Chat and Q&A (Please feel free to leave early after Tapping, as needed, or you are more than welcome to stay a little longer and enjoy a Q&A and some more chat.)

Video: "How to Make Stress Your Friend" by Psychologist Kelly McGonigal
" .... the harmful effects of stress on your health are not inevitable. How you think and how you act can transform your experience of stress. When you choose to view your stress response as helpful, you create the biology of courage. And when you choose to connect with others under stress, you can create resilience. ...Stress gives us access to our hearts. The compassionate heart that finds joy and meaning in connecting with others, and yes, your pounding physical heart, working so hard to give you strength and energy. And when you choose to view stress in this way, you're not just getting better at stress, you're actually making a pretty profound statement. You're saying that you can trust yourself to handle life's challenges. And you're remembering that you don't have to face them alone."
