What You Are Feeling Matters

I saw some troubling statistics from a study that said that 44% of moms reported abusing prescription drugs, and 88% had reported abusing alcohol in their own homes. I’m struck by the thought that these are people like you and me. We are all just desperately trying to find a way to manage the demands of our homes and to relieve our stress.

What people need more than ever is to have a place where someone says

  • I see you
  • I hear you
  • What you are feeling matters

HEart HEALS is committed to providing a safe community where people can become aware of their feelings, express them creatively and share them if they wish. It is not necessarily a place to solve problems. Some situations can’t be changed. But the simple act of being heard can change how we experience life’s challenges.

The calendar for upcoming workshops held at Mariners Church can be found online at www.heart-heals.com.

As James Baldwin, American novelist, essayist wrote, “Not everything that is faced can be changed, but nothing can be changed until it is faced.”
