Partners Group - online meeting: You, me and everyone can benefit from Self Care. What is Self Care for me?
UPDATE 27 May:
Due to the updated restrictions for Melbourne announced on Thursday 27 May, this event is now taking place online only. Registration prices have been adjusted to reflect this.
Join our Partners Peer Support Group to meet other adults who are or who have been in a relationship with someone who has Aspergers, is autistic, or has a similar neurodiverse profile. Sharing experiences within the safe environment of our peer support meetings can be a lifeline, and sharing with people who have similar lived experience is validating and often educational. Your partner may be self-diagnosed or have a formal diagnosis, and you may share a household or live separately. We are an inclusive group and welcome partners of all genders and relationship types.
This month we feature self-care: identifying our own individual definition of self-care, benefits, and strategies. Our guest, Monique Poppelaars, will take us through some reflexology techniques promoting relaxation that we can add to our self-care toolboxes.
This session is facilitated by our Partners group leaders: partners@aspergersvic.org.au.
All AV volunteer group leaders share the lived experience of their group participants and welcome new attendees.
