This workshop is for individuals 50 AND OVER that are looking for reliable ways to ease the stress, anxiety, and depression over the countless challenges we all face as we age. The workshop also benefits everyone seeking to enhance satisfaction in the later part of life, regardless of their physical condition. At the workshop you will learn the following by interacting in fun and educational experiences:

• To identify the unique needs that emerge after you turn 50; what they are and how to meet them to enjoy life satisfaction for as long as you live

• How to break free from being affected by negative age beliefs and ageism

• How to boost your unique inner strengths that contribute to your wellbeing

All of the information presented is based on research in the field of aging.
