On behalf of Looms for Lupus (L4L), we are pleased to announce our 1st Annual Wellness Day. In celebration of May Awareness for Lupus, Fibromyalgia and Mental Health we are organizing a full day event committed to health and wellness for patients, caregivers, and loved ones virtually due to Covid-19. This is an opportunity to share educational health information, provide demonstrations of healthy practices, create a supportive community, and build awareness about available wellness program resources.
The event will be held virtually on Saturday, May 15, 2021 at 9:00am to 3:00pm. We will have Empowerment and Education breakout sessions that will teach skills needed to actively participate in healthy coping strategies. These sessions will be engaging and interactive. Example focus areas: Art Therapy, Meditation & Mindfulness, Mental Health, Nutrition & Lifestyle, Yoga, Beauty Tips, and Caregiver support. Language interpretation in Spanish will be provided as well as Spanish breakout sessions.
Working at the community level to promote healthy living brings the greatest health benefits to the greatest number of people. It also reduces health disparities caused by differences in income, education, race and ethnicity, location and other factors that can affect health. #L4LWellness2021
