What is the purpose of this Group? The purpose of the Anxiety & Stress Relief Support Group is to create a healing and open space for individuals to connect on the struggles of daily stress and anxiety. Experience practices around mindfulness and meditation to come back to center with valued habits for a sense of inner-peace. How does ASG work? You Are Not Alone. Join us in this safe and yet powerful space to connect deeper within yourself as a community. Create a better understanding of Anxiety and Stress as well as learn how mindfulness and meditation can be used as tools to work with them. Come As You Are. Anxiety exists in the common six forms of Generalised anxiety disorder, Social Anxiety, Specific phobias, Panic Disorder, Obsessive compulsive disorder and Post-traumatic stress disorder. Take time with the community to deepen your connection to the self and explore a deeper sense of compassion for the days ahead. Thank You For Being You.
