Healthy Living Together Series Presents “Self Care During the Holidays”

McKenzie Health System invites the community to its next Healthy Living Together session, “Self Care During the Holidays,” on Wednesday, November 19, from 12:00 to 1:00 p.m. The event will take place in the McKenzie Health System Dining Room, located at 120 Delaware Street, Sandusky, MI 48471, with lunch available for $5. A virtual attendance option via Zoom is also available for those who prefer to join remotely.

This thoughtful and timely session will be led by Tabitha Jensen, LLMSW, Clinical Supervisor. at Sanilac County Community Mental Health. Jensen will share practical strategies for managing stress, maintaining balance, and prioritizing personal well-being during the busy holiday season. Attendees will learn ways to stay mindful, set healthy boundaries, and practice simple techniques that promote calm and connection.

“The holidays can be a joyful time, but they can also bring added pressure and emotional strain,” said Nina Barnett, Public Relations and Foundation Coordinator at McKenzie and Healthy Living Committee Chair. “By taking small, intentional steps to care for ourselves, we can better enjoy the season and support our own mental health and the well-being of those around us.”

The event is free and open to the public. To register for either in-person or virtual attendance, please visit www.McKenzieHealth.org/Healthy-Living and follow the instructions on the event page for your preferred option, or call 810-648-6127.
