Dinner Topic: Running to Heal Mental Injury: From fight, flight, freeze to flow one step at a time
We’re all running to heal. Some are running to heal others through charity. Others run to heal themselves … to overcome physical, mental, or emotional injuries. Learn how to move your body in a way that makes sense for you and your long-term health - one step at a time.
This evening we’ll explore ways to view movement differently, meditatively and fun-tastically. Join us as we learn about ways to create an atmosphere of nourishment in your life.
We’ll hear from guest speaker, Michelle Tennant Nicholson, who has been exercising for years to reclaim her mental health and self-love. She is a passionate storyteller and uses her own personal journey to inspire others to find their own joy in movement.
