A Special Event For You

June 7, 2023

Hi everybody, and happy Wednesday!

The plantar fasciitis is getting better, day by day. Thank you to all the folks who sent me healing energy, suggestions and good wishes. It’s wonderful to have kind readers who comment and respond—makes me feel like you are on the journey with me, which, I guess, you are.

Today, I’d like to take the time and use this blog space to share a special event with you. Our nonprofit, For Every Body, Inc., offers a series of wellness workshops (among other things—have you checked out our website?) that relate to different aspects of the Wellness Wheel.

Wellness Wheel? What’s that?

Here’s a great (and giant!) graphic of our version of the Wellness Wheel:

Nice, huh? We like to have fun with our graphics are are lucky ducks that the amazing Rosa has helped us create this fun one. As you can see, there are many aspects of wellness. Our goal is to address all of them. Last spring, we began to offer a wide variety of workshops addressing different areas of the wheel during spring and summer, then we took a break to focus on other business areas. We are back with more Wellness Workshops this summer.

Our next Wellness Workshop takes place on Zoom on Wednesday, June 21, at 4:00 pm Eastern time. You can attend for free. (And if you can’t make it, you will be able to watch a recording at a later date.) Read on, then click on the link at the end of this post to join us for this terrific event if you wish. Be sure to add it to you calendar.

Our guest presenter is Nathan Ives. It is my good fortune that Nathan is my neighbor, as he is one of those truly good people who gives his all to his family, his job and his community. Nathan is an Episcopal priest, as well as an environmental activist. He is currently working on a massive project to bring American Elms back to Cape Ann, particularly to Rockport and Gloucester. He’s the Johnny Appleseed of American Elms—and his mission is called Project Elm. We are blessed to have Nathan give us some of his precious time to talk about why he has chosen this Dutch Elm planting project and how it has meaning for Cape Ann. Here’s an article from the Gloucester Daily Times with more information about the project. One last link for you to check out: an interview Nathan did with Gloucester’s very own Heather Atwood in her series Cape Ann Today, from Studio 1623 in Gloucester.

Please join us for this presentation! Here’s the Zoom link:
