The Anxiety Resource Center has a variety of Workshops and Events taking place throughout the year. These opportunities provide a way to help you manage your anxiety and improve your mental wellness. Don’t forget to check out our weekly Support Group offerings.
The Power of Music
Our weekly support groups offer an opportunity to connect with others who have anxiety. On the last Wednesday of each month, we are dedicating time to explore a topic related to anxiety disorders.
For the month of July, we will be discussing how music can impact anxiety. Did you know studies have found listening to music, and also making music, can calm the nervous system and lower cortisol levels? If you would like to be a part of our group discussion about music awareness, please be sure to sign up below.

Diving into Summer
For many of us, the warm summer days encourage the desire to get outside. The heat from the rising sun, the gentle breeze, and the beautiful night skies offers a nudge to be more active. We can reap many benefits such as an increase in Vitamin D that our bodies need. The mental health benefits of physical activity are great too.
Nikos Vasilellis, the founder of Nereids Aquatic Coaching, shares on the ARC Blog his top five suggestions for adding physical activity to our days. Please take a read on what he suggests and enjoy these wonderful days of summer!
ARC Book Club
The ARC Book Club was created to keep people sharing, connecting, and reading during the pandemic. Many have commented on how it’s been helpful to connect in this way and have become regular members of our Club. We hope you’ll consider being a part of our next group in the fall.
Curious about what we’ve been reading? Here are the books we have enjoyed together:
- The Gifts of Imperfection by Brene Brown
- The Rosie Project by Graeme Simsion
- Grayson by Lynne Cox
- Wintering: The Power of Rest and Retreat by Katerine May
