\nand,<\/span>
\nWednesday, April 29, 12 noon – 1 pm<\/span>
\n<\/span>Facilitated by Heather Coate, LPC, EAW Counselor<\/i><\/span>
\n<\/span>This is a two-part series, participants are encouraged to attend both, though it is not necessary.\u00a0 In part one (Stressed Life) we will examine stress in-depth exploring intensity, manifestations in everyday life including the fight, flight, freeze, and fawn stress personalities, and the brain\u2019s inherent negativity bias. In part two (Best Life) we identify tools and techniques that aid us in cultivating resilience to stress, including practicing happiness, self-regulation, and creating more meaningful connections.<\/span><\/div>\n

\nPart one (4\/22): Join: https:\/\/nau.zoom.us\/j\/221258270, Meeting ID: 221 258 270<\/span><\/div>\n

Couple$ and Finance$<\/h4>\n
Tuesday, April 28, 12 – 1 pm<\/span>
\n<\/span>Led by Shawnee McDowell, EAW Counselor<\/i><\/span><\/div>\n
\u00a0<\/span>Money is so much a part of our daily lives, yet many of us don\u2019t feel comfortable talking about it. \u00a0Although we might have crossed our fingers and wished that the abundant love we felt and still feel for our partner would lead to financial harmony without any discussion, it hasn\u2019t! This workshop will focus on how to identify the meaning we place on money, and how to have the conversations we might dread having, but this can improve how we communicate with and understand ourselves and our partners.<\/span><\/div>\n
