The Neenah Public Library, in collaboration with Deb Skyrms, will offer a free four-week course on “Mindful Living”. The four-week class will be held at the Neenah Public Library on Mondays in October, from 6:00 – 8:00 p.m. The class is free; registration is required. Please call to register: 920-886-6315. Class size is limited.
Class participants will explore the many benefits of living mindfully – resulting in a less stressful life. You’ll learn how to meditate, manage emotions, and challenge negative thoughts. Throughout the class, the book, Slowing Down to the Speed of Life, by Richard Carlson and Joseph Bailey, rev. ed. 2009, will be used in discussions. Copies of the book will be available for checkout by participants.
The class will be taught by Deb Skyrms, a Licensed Professional Counselor. Deb was a mental health therapist for ThedaCare and most recently an adjunct faculty member at Fox Valley Technical College teaching the class, “Living Mindfully.”
