Simple and Immediately Effective Tools for Stress Reduction - with Tom Speare

Community members are invited to join Healthy Acadia on Thursday, January 4, 2024, from 5 p.m. to 6 p.m., virtually via Zoom for "Simple and Immediately Effective Tools for Stress Reduction" with special guest Tom Speare. The free online event is the latest in Healthy Acadia’s Monthly Mindfulness Series.

Stress can be mitigated successfully when you have the right tools in your toolbox. By utilizing fast-working practices you can reduce the level of stress you are experiencing in just minutes. Once you familiarize yourself with these tools you can easily make a habit of incorporating them regularly into your life.

In this session, Speare will introduce multiple stress reduction practices that can become the foundation of a more balanced, healthy, and productive you. He will also explore a curated selection of extensive research on stress and anxiety with participants, shedding light on the profound impact these conditions have on our bodies. The insights from this research have shaped the development of the tools that will be applied in this workshop.

Pre-registration is required for this free event. Complete and submit this form to register and receive the Zoom link to join the session.
