Sunday Symposium- How to Survive the Holidays

The holiday season is coming up and for some people that comes with mixed emotions. Do you spend time around family that stress you out? Is there a relative that tries to bait you into getting in a discussion on a topic that causes strong emotions? Are some of the happy memories accompanied by sadness because of loss or circumstance? Thanksgiving to New Years can be a difficult time. Shorter days and seasonal depression don't help either. This will be an open discussion on how to deal with situations, emotions and ways to look after your own mental health. For fun if you wish, please bring a favorite holiday recipe or tradition to share with the group.

We will meet at the shelter near the dog park at Happy Hollow (not the main entrance to the park - the dog park is downhill from it!). Bring your own coffee or beverage of your choice.
