"Closer to Fine" is a processing group aimed at reducing anxiety through shared experiences in a supportive community setting. Participants receive tools for anxiety management including gentle yoga, meditation for anxiety, laughter, journaling, and mindfulness education, which can be applied both during and outside of group sessions. The group fosters encouragement, comfort, and a sense of community. Sessions are held weekly on Tuesdays at 5:30 pm, offering both in-person and virtual options. No prior yoga experience is necessary; participants only need a yoga mat. Resting during yoga is encouraged for comfort and meditation."
