Seattle, WA - Thursdays - January 22 to March 19, 2015

Time:

1:30 pm to 3:00 pm

Location:

Recovery Cafe

What WERE you thinking? It's a question that most of us have asked or have been asked. The common response: "I don't know," is the truth. We weren't thinking! Our emotions, not our brains, were running the show. In this class series were out to help emotions work for, not against us. We'll learn how to improve outcomes and well-being by learning how to manage emotions in 4 easy steps that will ensure that a resilient Personal Safety Net will work for us.

Our book and workbook will guide you in intentionally creating your own personal safety net.
