Calendar Sep 25, 2023

The concepts of alternative, holistic, and integrative medicine have their roots in various healing traditions that have been around for thousands of years. Yet, this philosophy is receiving much attention today due to the changing health care climate, a growing need for a "different" health care system, and a recognition of the benefits of combing the external, physical, and technologic successes of medicine with the internal, nonphysical exploration of healing. This Certificate Program has been endorsed by the American Holistic Nurses Association.

The outcome of this certificate program is for the learner to describe holistic and integrative therapeutic modalities and their role in health and healing.

Fall/Winter Rambles, 3.0

$5

with Sam Horine, RSU 54/MSAD 54 Adult and Community Education

Calendar Sep 26, 2023 at 5 pm

If you enjoy being outdoors in the winter, want to encounter lost trails or trails slightly off the beaten path, and share in good camaraderie, then Rambles 3.0 might be for you.

We will venture out on a trail within 40 miles of Skowhegan once a month between October and March to enjoy the changing seasons. Due to diminishing winter daylight all outings will start in the early afternoon.

Good walking shoes, warm winter boots, ice creepers, snowshoes, comfortable layered clothing, hats and mittens and a yen to explore are the essential elements needed.

Classes will meet on the second Tuesday of each month (dependent on the weather) and last about two hours.

There will be a short orientation meeting at SAHS on September 26. First ramble on Oct. 10.

with Ed2Go Instructor, MSAD#1 Adult & Community Education

Calendar Sep 28, 2023

We are experiencing a mindfulness revolution as we become aware of the benefits of being mindful in our self-care, intimate relationships, and communication processes. We are also increasingly aware of how the practice of mindfulness can effect climate change, nature, our health, the health of our communities, and the health of the planet. When we cultivate a sense of connectedness to everything in nature and realize we all share only one Earth, we gain an immeasurable gift in return. As we cultivate mindfulness and self-compassion for ourselves, it ripples outward to others and transforms our relationship with our partners, families, communities, and the world.

The outcome of this certificate is for the learner to describe the characteristics of mindful self-care, intimate relationships, communication processes, and how mindfulness impacts climate change and human health.

Mindfulness is a state of active, open attention on the present moment and is a key component in a wide variety of current, widely-recognized healing interventions. Neuroscientists are mapping how mindfulness training can change and improve brain health, and scholars are taking a fresh look at the nature of "self," emotion regulation, compassion, wisdom, and the far reaches of human potential.

Mindfulness reduces stress and anxiety and improves health, improves personal and professional relationships, contributes to improved productivity in the workplace, leads to long-term health changes that result in fewer chronic illnesses, reduces demand on the health care system, and improves the quality of life. This certificate addresses how to support mindfulness in all areas of life. It provides a solid foundation of knowledge and information to support individuals who wish to enhance their own well-being as well as health care professionals who wish to evolve in their profession, create new job opportunities for themselves in the exploding field of mindfulness, health promotion, lifestyle coaching, etc.
