February just flew by! At the beginning of the month my weekends were consumed with ESYO concerts, and then over long weekend I had my wisdom teeth taken out, so I’ve not had as much time to dedicate to my Signature as I would like.
That being said, I’ve just scheduled a meeting with Ms. Bendall to plan for our first mental wellness event in the READY Center. The event will be an Introduction to Meditation, as per the request of NAMI@Emma members. I’m hoping to keep this event short and sweet to encourage as many people as possible to attend. I was hoping to run the event before the end of March, and I think that we could have the materials ready by the first week back from break, and run it then or the first week in April. In terms of what the actual event will consist of, I will be giving an introductory presentation, maybe lasting about 10 minutes, about the basics of mediation, my favorite meditation Youtube channels, things along those lines. This would be followed by Ms. Bendall leading a meditation session with the attendees. In terms of advertising for the event, I plan on connecting with Peer Eds and the health classes to encourage people to attend, and I’ve discussed having a meditation flash-mob to raise interest in the event with Ms. Moore.
