2026 SCHEDULE​​

​

June: Reframing After Midlife​​


In our workshops we will be discussing three important topics:

Thursday, June 4: Transitions: To Begin Again:

Aging calls us to foster a positive mindset that includes growing, connecting, adapting, and giving as we move through the stages of transition.

 

Thursday, June 11: Resiliency: Growing an Unshakeable Core of Strength:
Resiliency is the quality that allows some people to be knocked
down by the difficulties of life and come back hopefully having
learned something and at least as strong as before, maybe even
stronger.

 

Thursday, June 18: The Power of Purpose:
“Purpose is the essence of who we are and what makes us rise,
every day of our lives.  Purpose is an active expression of the    
deepest dimension within us - where we have a profound sense of     
who we are and why we’re here.  Purpose means using our gifts to 
make a positive difference in the lives of others.” ~ Richard Leider

 

These conversations will be led by Gail Braverman, Marriage and Family Therapist who has been in practice for over 35 years.  For the majority of those years, she has facilitated groups and for the last several years has focused on the wisdom of aging.  Gail explores meaningful topics that deepen connections, foster compassion, and create community

​

Thursdays, June 4, 11, 18. 3-4 pm.

Free/M, $20/NM for the full series. Registration required by calling (858) 459-0831 or emailing avani@ljcommunitycenter.org.
