Anxiety to Calm
If anxiety has stopped you from doing your usual activities and living your best life, come learn skills to find calm, challenge yourself and live well.
The program is focused on people learning more about anxiety, developing skills in class which are practiced at home to manage and reduce anxiety, and experience more calmness.
People attending this 8 week group had a 50% reduction in anxiety symptoms on completion of the group. People improved their ability to do daily tasks and work; had more energy; better mental health and increased their likelihood of socializing with family and friends.
Here's what a couple of participants who took the program through Red Deer PCN had to say about it:
"To relax, do my breathing and listen to myself, what my heart body and mind is saying and yes, it's ok to say NO."
"Made me aware of my contribution to my anxiety, then gave me the tools to manage and understand my anxiety."
