We are pleased to share with you a new program being offered by our friends at Whole Health Counseling, Wellness & Healing in Bluffton. The clinicians at Whole Health are an important part of our Team and provide clinical services to our first responders in the Lowcountry area.

Their new Live Well Group is catered specifically for people who may be going through life transitions. Facilitated by Kristen Pagulayan, LISW-CP, this group is sure to offer the support you’ve been missing. The group will meet every Tuesday, from 6:30 p.m.to 7:30 p.m., beginning February 6th. There is a $25 per session cost and advanced registration is required. Contact Kristen by email or give her a call at 843-473-0036.

It sounds easy, doesn’t it? As the song says, “let it go “. However, it’s usually not as simple as that. Why is it often so hard to forgive people and let go of grudges, real or perceived? Often, it is because someone we love and trust has hurt us in a way that has left us feeling angry and resentful. We may choose not to forgive initially because we may equate it with minimizing the issue and excusing the behavior. Deciding to forgive and let go doesn’t mean that the original act is forgotten about, but it can release a hold it has on us, and take away its power.

A wonderful way to start the New Year with a fresh and optimistic outlook.
