Relax & Rejuvenate: Spring Into Wellness Community Event

 


Join the SAY, in partnership with Stigma-Free Springfield, for Relax & Rejuvenate: Spring into Wellness – a special event on Wednesday, May 18 
open to all community members to learn about practicing self-care and participate in yoga, mindfulness and dance activities that will *fingers crossed* change the way you deal with stress and practice mindfulness in your daily lives. 

Plus, speak with local wellness providers like Juice Dreams, Morning Light Acupuncture, Bacall Wellness & Naomi Broome Board Certified Dance/Movement Therapist about how to de-stress and how to get started on the road to self-care. 

In honor of Mental Health Awareness Month in May, the Summit Area YMCA (SAY) is encouraging community members to prioritize their mental health. We recognize that mental health plays a huge part of our physical health, social and emotional well-being and that taking care of your mind is equally important as taking care of your body.
