Stigma Free Springfield and Summit Area YMCA Host Wellness Community Event

Thanks to our sponsors

Join the Summit Area YMCA, in partnership with Stigma Free Springfield, for "Relax & Rejuvenate: Spring into Wellness" -- a special event taking place on Wednesday, May 18, 2022, from 7:00-9:00 pm, at the Chisholm Community Center (100 South Springfield Avenue). The event is open to all community members to learn about practicing self-care. Attendees will participate in yoga, mindfulness, and dance activities that will change the way you deal with stress and practice mindfulness in your daily lives. Plus, you will have an opportunity to speak with local wellness providers such as Juice Dreams, Morning Light Acupuncture, Bacall Wellness, and Naomi Broome Board Certified Dance/Movement Therapist about how to de-stress and how to get started on the road to self-care. In honor of Mental Health Awareness Month in May, the Summit Area YMCA is encouraging community members to prioritize their mental health. We recognize that mental health plays a huge part of our physical health, social and emotional well-being, and that taking care of your mind is equally important as taking care of your body. Online pre-registration is required at www.thesay.org/relax. Additional event supporters include Springfield Recreation Department and Springfield Unity Project. Questions?
