During challenging times, it is essential to find creative ways of practicing self-care as a way to care for ourselves and others. Refilling the tank while dealing with so many unknowns is crucial.

The Resiliency Center of Newtown announces the return of a free program that has helped in the past: “Creative Insight.”

“Creative Insight: Taking the Next Step” is based on the renowned Stanford University Graduate School of Business course “Creativity in Business,” and has been taught for more than 18 years to communities dealing with loss and trauma. It explores how to live with joy, peace, presence, and possibility, regardless of one’s circumstances.

Sessions will be weekly, via Zoom, with participants discussing such topics as letting go of expectations, quieting the inner critic, being present, minimizing stress, improving relationships and others.

The group will launch on June 9, and continue weekly until July 28, from noon to 12:30 each Tuesday.

The program is open everyone, including past Creative Insight participants.

It is being offered by HealCreatively, LLC (www.healcreatively.com).

Registration for the first session is requested by Friday, June 5; e-mail to beth@resiliencycenterofnewtown.org.
