Small Group Online Class/ Support Circle
NEW in Fall 2018 I am making the transition this year from facilitating in-person classes to facilitating small ​online groups using Zoom.

***ANNOUNCING NAVIGATING THE FIBRO EXPERIENCE---a new once a month support circle
    
***FOR REGISTRATION:  Go to the Upcoming Classes page!

What to Expect-Description and Benefits:

Enables easy participation from home at reduced fee.
Groups continue to be small (4-5 people) and meet once monthly. 
The two-hour format combines experiential self-care tools (such as PAUSE, CALM, and REFOCUS) plus access to a facilitated circle of support.
Each meeting includes group sharing time plus reflective activities to help you develop a personal plan that focuses on your well-being and simple, doable action step planning for living better and well again.

Our group time together is committed to maintaining a healing focus and sidestepping the oftentimes easy slide into illness focus. This is not to deny the very real challenges of living with this disease! However the group emphasis is on helping you identify what truly matters most to YOU while living with this chronic health challenge and exploring new possibilities to live better again...within an ongoing circle of support
​
The focus of our time together is to gently support you in taking steps forward to create a "life beyond fibromyalgia."

My ebook, Life Beyond Fibromyalgia: A Personal Guide for Moving Forward and Leaving Struggle Behind, includes discussion topics and exercises that can be very useful tools in support groups. The book's appendix offers suggestions for ways to use these tools in group settings to help create healing-focused interactions. Feel free to contact me at eemerryfield@gmail.com if I can provide further assistance at any time. Depending upon your location, I am also available to facilitate small group workshops.
