Wellness Seminar Series

In 2019, I ran a series of bi-weekly seminars on wellness topics at the Almonte Public Library. Going forward, some of these may be available remotely; please ask if you are interested.

Wellness seminar topics are relevant to people of all ages who are aiming to reach optimum, levels of physical and mental health.

Past Seminars

What can I expect?

You can expect a small group of people interested to learn and share about how to improve their health.

Sessions begin with a few minutes of what I refer to as “levity”. It is basically a moment for people to catch up on each others’ news and get settled in.

A typical agenda will include a brief presentation on a health topic and time to address questions.

There will be opportunities to leave comments and suggestions for upcoming sessions.

Who is it for?

Some talks will be of interest to participants age 13 and up while others will target a more mature audience. Please do not hesitate to contact me by phone or email if you need more details about any of the topics to be discussed.

I will provide general information useful to most people. Sometimes anonymous case studies will be used as examples. To keep everyone’s personal health information private, those seeking personal or specific information will be encouraged to make an individual appointment to discuss their particular situation.

Pay what you can

What does that mean exactly?

It means that I hope people will financially “pitch in” to help cover the cost of providing this service so that, over time, this endeavour becomes self-funded.

While I hope to make a living sharing my knowledge, skills and experience as a nurse practitioner in private practice, I also wish to make this kind of service accessible to everyone, no matter their current financial situation.

Why?

The seminars are my way to engage members of my community in a collaborative effort to improve each and everyone’s health knowledge and skills to achieve optimum health. One of my personal mantras is: “stronger together.” Knowledge is power and a strong healthy community benefits everyone.

I also intend for the wellness seminars series to be a means to get to know the members of my community as well as an opportunity to introduce myself. I am familiar with how difficult it is to find the right person to help in times of struggles, and I hope to make reaching out for help easier.
