Outreach Coordinator, for Second Story Women’s Centre
2019-02-12 10:00 - 12:00 | New Ross Family Resource Centre, Hwy 12, New Ross, Nova Scotia, B0J 2M0, Canada
Hello, my name is Nicole Robson and I am the Outreach Coordinator at Second Story Women’s Centre. In my role I offer one on one counselling support; advocacy; referrals to other community supports; accompaniment if you need additional support at an appointment; crisis intervention and programming. It is very important to me that people have access to services in their own communities, so I am attempting to have the above services available in several communities in the South Shore.
I am going to be in New Ross at the New Ross Family Resource Centre (4691 Hwy 12) on February 12, 2019 from 10:00 am to 12:00 pm for a meet and greet drop in. We will be downstairs in the community room. If you would like to learn more about the services I offer please stop by for a tea/coffee and chat.

Join instructor Tammy Turple
Tuesday evenings at New Ross Family Resource Centre downstairs in our community room class time: 7:00 pm – 8:00 pm, but you are encouraged to come early to get comfortable for the class.

Is it time to give yourself a warm “peaceful pause” to reset, restore, and relax?
Did you know that 1 hour of Yoga Nidra is equal to 4 hours of sleep? Yoga Nidra can help with reducing anxiety and depression, healing emotional pain and trauma, relieving chronic pain, decreasing stress, relaxing and restoring the body and mind. The class will start with some gentle movement and stretching, that leads in to the Nidra practice, where you will find a comfortable position, lying on your back with a blanket and pillow. All you need to do is let go, breathe and listen.
You will be guided through a detailed sleep mediation that will allow you to slip into a deep state of relaxation.
If you feel called to nourish and restore, please join me on this blissful journey
