DVH "Happy, Healthy and Wise" Workshops Offered Mornings and Evenings

Learn new coping skills for chronic conditions!  “Happy, Healthy and Wise” is a free, six session workshop on how you can reduce the fear, stress and pain associated with chronic conditions such as arthritis, high blood pressure, heart or lung problems, diabetes, chronic pain, or stress and anxiety.

These 6 free, interactive workshops will also help you deal with fatigue, make better nutrition and exercise choices, and get a better night's sleep. They will also help you discover ways to be better able to speak with your doctor and family about your condition and set realistic goals and plans to improve your health and your life. 

You will have the opportunity to work and learn from others who share similar health concerns. All attendees will receive the Living a Healthy Life book and healthy snacks and have fun! This practical program can show you how a nutritious diet, the right kind of exercise and stress-reduction methods truly can help you to live happier, healthier and wiser.

The Happy, Healthy and Wise Workshops are free of charge and held once a week, over a 6 week period and will be held on Tuesday evenings, beginning on September 11 through October 16 from 5:30-8 PM or you may choose to attend our morning sessions. They will be held on Mondays from 10-12:30 beginning September 17 through October 22.   All sessions will be held at the UHS Delaware Valley Hospital Finance Building, Wellness Room, 20 West Street, Walton and are limited to 15 in each group.
