Discover hope, belonging & connection

Procrastination becomes a vicious cycle: you become overwhelmed with what must be done and the lack of time left to do it, become increasingly stressed, and feel completely stuck and unable to move forward. Lack of motivation is part of procrastination. Join us for our 1 hour session where we learn how to turn our procrastination into motivation!

• Consider what unhelpful attitudes and assumptions lead you to put things off without you realizing it.
• Explore the procrastination cycle.
• Discuss the roadmap to overcoming procrastination.
• Discover time and task management skills.

Welcome to CMHA's Wellness Through Art where we welcome EVERYONE as an artist! The intention of this event is to simply create space for people to make art together. Each month we will start out with sharing a different mindfulness technique or thought provoking activity for contemplation or inspiration. We will then open up the space for participants to be creative and make whatever art is calling to them in the moment. We will provide some basic art supplies, but you are also welcome to bring your own supplies or art projects from home and work on them here. YOU CAN'T DO ART WRONG! This is a judgment free zone and we are all here to feel good through creating art and connecting with one another:)

Journaling can reduce stress, anxiety and depression, improve sleep and bring us a greater sense of focus and clarity. Writing is even shown to help us heal from trauma. Bring your own journal and join us for this facilitated journaling circle where we will write, create and learn about ourselves. (If you do not have a journal, we are happy to provide one for you!)
