Wellness support in numbers...

No matter what we experience in our lives, there is always someone else who has experienced the same thing. Whether one is coping with grief, medical conditions, addictions, or behaviors there is a familiar word called support that is designed to help you address the needs of you.

Support groups are a place for people to give and receive both emotional and practical support as well as to exchange information. The groups are a valuable resource — a place where people can share information, get confirmation, educate others, or just let off steam.

In addressing wellness needs, there are times when a support group can assist with healing. In searching for a support group it is important to remember that if the group does not feel right to you or does not match your needs, try a different group as there are many options available.

In addition, you can always start you own support group. Creatively name it, decide upon a meeting location, identify a target population, get the word out, and build upon the natural relationships that the group can bring.

Live well Glami’s!
