Life is filled with challenges\, interpersonal conflict\, physical and emotional pain\, loss\, and stress. It does not matter who you are – no one goes through life unscathed. Regardless of your past – your life “story” up until now – what matters most is how you cope. All of us learn various “coping mechanisms” as children. For example\, as a young child you may have clung to a favorite blanket or sucked your thumb to comfort yourself when you were scared. As you got a little older\, you may have used humor to deflect or hide emotional pain or acted out when you wanted attention from your workaholic parents. You took a healthier route and channeled angry or painful feelings into physical activity\, tearing up the asphalt as a sprinter or slamming tennis balls in vigorous games with a teammate. We will be exploring the diverse ways we have learned coping styles that are healthy and/or not-so-healthy. Addictions as a form of coping with life traumas will be analyzed\, join us in the Circle. \nFebruary 1st Introduction to Coping Strategies \nFebruary 8th Dealing with Depression \nFebruary 15th Expressing Guilt & Shame \nFebruary 22nd Celebration/Closure \n
