Transitions and Transformations: Thriving in the Midst of Change
Life is a cycle of beginnings and endings. Transitions can be hard, but they have
a positive side too. They offer an opportunity to rethink the direction our lives
are taking. In the 2nd and 3rd chapters of life we may discover that our own life
is similar to seasonal patterns of endings and beginnings. The fall season of life
brings their own unique set of challenges and opportunities. We lost a loved one,
a job, divorce, experience an illness, we have an empty nest. Or perhaps we are exhilarated
by becoming a new grandparent, a new job or moving to a new home or city. Whether
the transition is positive or negative, we all have times when we ask ourselves, "How
can I make it easier?" Practical strategies will be discussed to empower you in making
future changes with greater confidence, less stress and the greatest potential to
thrive. Class is suggested for ages 50+.
