Wellness Retreat to be Held at Trinity Christian College
Emotional, social, and career topics, as well as nutrition, self-esteem, yoga and more are a few of the matters that will be addressed at an October 13 wellness retreat to be held at Trinity Christian College, 6601 W. College Dr. in Palos Heights.
The retreat, which will run from 8 am to 4 pm, was planned by members of the college’s student chapter of the Illinois Counseling Association, and a portion of the proceeds from the retreat will be used to provide various supplies to homeless and domestic violence shelters located in the south suburbs.
“We are covering a wide range of topics because our research tells us that people want information on these subjects,” Deb Majewski, a licensed professional counselor and an assistant professor at Trinity said. “We are trying to help people deal with all the day-to-day difficulties they are faced with, and we hope we can not only provide information, but also methods of coping with issues people have.”
Majewski, one of the keynote speakers for the event, will help participants gauge their own mental health. Additional presenters include other professors from Trinity Christian College as well as mental health professionals from individual private practices.
The fee for the event will be $20, which includes lunch with vegetarian options. Registration for the event can be made online at: Eventbrite.com. Log onto the site and search for Wellness Retreat in Palos Heights.
