Goal
This group is for anyone who has ever felt lonely, struggled with fear and/or shame, and longed for change, but doesn't know how to take the first step.
What do we do
In the support group, we learn together how to deal with ourselves and difficult situations. We create a safe and respectful environment where there's room to share what's on your mind.
· You can tell us what you are struggling with
We exchange experiences and find recognition in each other
· You learn that you are not alone in what you feel
· We practice with gentleness, understanding and new perspectives
Listening is just as important as sharing. Being together and sharing experiences creates recognition, peace, and trust.
