Relaxation Class Overview

Michelle LaCroix will hold a Relaxation Class October 17, 2009 from 9:00am - 4:30 pm at the Faribault Senior Center. Lunch and snacks are provided.

In today’s culture we are constantly bombarded with stimuli and stressors.  Our jobs, families, relationships, and personal demands require us to be “on our game” at a rate that is dizzying and confusing, not to mention difficult to maintain.  When we are on a constant “fight-or-flight” mode, we wear down and are prone to injury and illness.  Relaxation is a concept we are familiar with and dream of, but it is usually a lower priority event for most of us.  We tend to put it as a future to-do item, and moan that we need it now.  We think of relaxing as a time consuming chore, and forget that it is not even a luxury, but a necessary part of caring for our fragile body and minds.

Relaxation Class Goals

1. To value ourselves enough to put some time and energy into replenishing our bodies.
2. To value the people around us enough to send out healing and loving thoughts.
3. To look at energy work as a viable, possible means of reconnecting ourselves back to our higher power/God.
4. To be able to place ourselves in a relaxed state, and harmonize our thoughts and actions.
