Yoga group for survivors of sexual abuse to begin sessions

Sat, 10/10/2015 - 7:30am

Sexual Assault Support Services of Midcoast Maine (SASSMM) is excited to announce Yoga for Survivors, a trauma sensitive yoga based support group for female identified survivors of sexual violence who have done some previous healing work and are interesting in moving forward in their healing journey. This group will begin in November 2015 and aims to promote personal awareness, growth and healing through a series of trauma sensitive yoga sessions, as well as other activities to promote healing during and after group sessions.  Other activities may include but are not limited to self-care, journaling, yoga, nutrition and wellness.

The Yoga for Survivors group is free and will take place in the Brunswick area on Mondays in the late afternoon/early evening timeframe. Individuals must attend a pre-group screening interview prior to the start of the group. If you are interested in learning more, please call Molly at 207-725-2181, or email communityadv@sassmm.org. This program is funded thanks to a grant from the Maine Women’s Giving Tree of the Maine Community Foundation.
