Director's Reflections — Staying Healthy During the Time of COVID
by Jan Adrian, MSW

Dear Friends,

You can still register for the free Speaker Series Webinar on Saturday, February 12th at 10 a.m. PST. Michael Finkelstein, MD, will be talking about Staying Healthy During the Time of COVID. The focus of what we hear on the media is on getting vaccinated to prevent serious illness, AND there is so much more we can do for ourselves to stay healthy.

Learn how you can strengthen your ability to resist and/or fight disease. We will have a Q & A so come with your questions. If you register for this Webinar and can’t join us at 10 a.m. PST on Saturday, we will send you the recording. There is a link for more information and to register in the News section, below.

Our Speaker Series this year will include a free Zoom Webinar every other month. The second one will be on April 9th and our speaker will be Steve Ottersberg, speaking on the subject of Cannabis and Cancer. I have asked him to assume that our audience is naive about the subject and start with the basics. Save the date.

In March we are offering our first writing class, with Sandra Marinella. For the past two years Sandra and I have been co-facilitating online book study groups, reading her book, The Story You Need to Tell – Writing to Heal from Trauma, Illness, or Loss. These groups have been popular and powerful and have started many of you on the path of writing as part of your healing journey.

Now you will have an opportunity to write with Sandra’s guidance and support. The group will meet on Zoom for five Tuesdays, starting March 8th, from 10 to 12 PST. The link to more information or registration is in the News section, below.

Sandra’s book and her encouragement has been part of the motivation that has gotten me to the point of finishing the first draft of my cancer memoir, and into the middle of the first re-write, working with an editor. My goal is to finish Coloring Outside the Lines, Surviving and Thriving with Cancer for 30+ Years, by the end of this year. Anyone who has written a book knows it is both a tedious, yet rewarding, healing, and exciting project.

I hope you will join me for some of our events in 2022. If you have ideas for speakers or subjects you would like to see us take on in our free Speaker Series, please let me know. I love hearing from you.

As always, I welcome your comments; to reply please click here.

In the Spirit of Healing,
