Breaking out of isolation
Our community is expanding. The last six months of our popular Maintaining Health program have brought members of our community out in full strength. Thank you to our Quebec friend who included a day at Landing Strong as part of his vacation plans. Our hats off as well to those of you who travel from rural and remote areas such as Yarmouth and Cape Breton to connect in person for a meaningful day of connection, support, and laughter.
Distance does not keep us apart when the heart string pulls so strongly. We feel grateful for the courage and the effort everyone puts in to build and maintain this community, offering one another support and encouragement on a regular basis.
These groups would not be what they are if people didnāt put in the effort to attend. Even members who we havenāt seen in months or years are a welcome sight, as they are greeted by new and familiar members of our community.
A special thanks to theĀ Association of Psychologists of Nova Scotia, who recently presented us with anĀ awardĀ to recognize the positive impact of the Landing Strong community. We celebrated together on our last community day with a massive chocolate cake!
Our community may gather in Windsor, but we stand strong across the province.
Warm thoughts,
Belinda Seagram, Ph.D., R. Psych.
Executive Director, Landing Strong
