SUMMARY:Winter Solstice
DESCRIPTION:The Winter Solstice is the shortest day and longest night of the year\, occurring around December 21st in the Northern Hemisphere (June 20th/21st in the Southern Hemisphere) when Earth’s tilt points it farthest from the sun\, marking the beginning of longer days and celebrating the “rebirth” of the sun with festivals like Yule\, Saturnalia\, and Dōngzhì. It’s caused by Earth’s axial tilt\, not its distance from the sun\, and is a significant cultural event symbolizing light’s return.

The course provides an educational setting focused on recovery that offers respect\, understanding\, encouragement\, and hope. The course is taught by Peer Leaders who are devoted to helping others overcome the challenges of life with a mental health condition and know what it is like to live with a mental health challenge. Recovery is different for each person\, but the need for support on the journey is universal. The program is a peer-directed program because we believe that no one can teach about mental health recovery like someone who has lived it.

With new knowledge\, tools and support\, people can better take charge of their lives and choices. \n\n\n\nThe NAMI Peer-to-Peer education program is: \n\n\n\n\nClass 1: Introduction\, Mental Health\, and Recovery\n\n\n\nClass 2: The Brain and the Body\n\n\n\nClass 3: Telling Your Story\n\n\n\nClass 4: Strengthening Relationships\n\n\n\nClass 5: Growing Support Networks\n\n\n\nClass 6: Tools for Enhancing Recovery\n\n\n\nClass 7: Your Story\, Your Strengths\n\n\n\nClass 8: Moving Forward\, Sharing\, Evaluation\, Certification\, and potluck!\n\n\n\n\nWhen: Thursdays starting January 22\, 2026 through March 12\, 2026.
