MACON COUNTY PUBLIC LIBRARY: Enhancing Mental Health with Laughter and Animal Therapy

Macon County Public Library issued the following announcement on Nov. 27.

Everyone is welcome to this class about alternative therapies from our friends at Vaya Health. Please join us December 6!  

This course is designed for both care providers and recipients. It looks at alternative treatments and practice modalities and their impact on mental health. Many of the 'outside of the box' interventions can be incorporated into the lives of people managing a mental illness and/or their caregivers to help create balance, stability and a reduction in stress and its maladaptive impacts. The main topics of this course will be Animal Assisted Therapy and Laughter.

This is a free event at Macon County Public Library; facilitated by the Vaya Health GERO team. CEU’s are provided through NC Department of Health and Human Services.
