• Fitness Education
  People tend to think of an "elixir of life" as medicine in a bottle, a "magic potion" as some kind of pill, and the "fountain of youth" as mystical waters. Buy exercise may come closer than anything else we know as the best way to become and stay healthy, energetic, and happy. This presentation will help your audience identify the consequences of physical inactivity, understand 10 key benefits of physical activity, and discover several ways to make physical activity a part of their lives.

• Grieving process
  The mourning after

  An individual's grief over the loss of a loved one can take many forms. What is normal for one person may not be acceptable to another. Many factors influence a griever's response including societal expectations, type of death and personality variables. Reactions to grief can mimic not only physical ailments but also psychological disorders, particularly clinical depression. This workshop helps participants identify common reactions to grief, complicated grief, and when to refer to a grief counselor.

• Healthwise
  Taking control of your health

  Healthwise is a self-care manual to help you make better health decisions. Eight out of 10 health care problems are cared for at home. The Healthwise Handbook will help you do a better job of managing your family's health problems.

• Stress Management
  Cognitive management of stress

  Stressors affect people in different ways. We all have different coping mechanisms. The primary factor in dealing with stress, however, is how we perceive it, in particular what we 'tell' ourselves. This workshop helps participants explore their 'self talk' and shows the connection between thoughts, emotions, behavior and health.
