Embracing the Power of “And”

Did you ever think that one, tiny word could change your perspective--and maybe even your life? In Embracing the Power of And, we will explore the small & mighty word "and" as it relates to multiple areas of mental and emotional health. Those in leadership and helping professions are so often carrying heavy emotional and mental loads. Leaning into the power of "and" offers a hopeful perspective that will not only be personally enriching, but professionally empowering in the important work of service to others and our community. We will challenge binary thinking, create space for transformation of internal monologues, and begin to embrace the multitudes within. Come explore the power of "and."

Learning Objectives: 

• Participants will identify binary thoughts and ideas and learn to replace them with a dichotomous truth - two seemingly opposing things that can be true at the same time.
• Participants will identify unhelpful personal narratives they have held true and reframe them with "and" statements that create an alternative, more helpful narrative.
• Participants will identify personal talents and/or elements of personal identity and create affirmations which embrace the multitudes within them.

Two (2) CEUs will be offered to participants who attend this session and complete the evaluation.
