Take some intentional "me time" and join us for a relaxing evening designed to help you slow down and build the habit of making time for yourself (and maybe even reading more) this summer! We'll meet in the Auditorium for a short icebreaker, and then go on a light walk together to Waterloo Park. Once there, participants will be guided through two simple grounding techniques to help you feel present and centered.
