SUMMARY:Living Well in the Community
DESCRIPTION:This Staying on Course and Maintenance session acknowledges that no one can eliminate all feelings of stress and frustration\, but that we can guard ourselves against becoming discouraged and giving up on our goals.

With MHI Facilitator support\, participants recognize those outer and inner voices that either discourage or encourage them\, identify which stress management techniques help them stay motivated\, so they can stay on track towards their goals.\nLocation: Zoom Meeting

SUMMARY:Living Well in the Community
DESCRIPTION:With MHI Facilitator support\, in the Healthy Communication and Reactions session\, participants explore the different components of communication\, how they can change their thoughts to reduce the frustration they may feel\, and how healthy reactions to problems can help them stay motivated. Healthy communication skills are important for living well. Experiencing setbacks and obstacles is a normal part of working to achieve quality of life goals\, but it is also frustrating.
