Affirmations for the Self-Loathing

Taborspace 5441 SE Belmont St, Portland

"I am open to the best things in life" -or- "I am immediately distrustful of good things, because i'm waiting for the other shoe to drop, but I will eventually accept that things go okay sometimes... begrudgingly" Which statement do you relate to more? If the latter, this group might be the one for you! We'll make and decorate booklets to take home where you can write your own customized (more believable) affirmations to inject a little positivity in our daily lives (but not too much!) FREE Read more about Reimagining Recovery at www.reimaginingrecovery.org/ or our Facebook page Reimagining Recovery Title is tongue-in-cheek: You don't actually have to loathe yourself to benefit from this one!

In celebration of National Handwriting Day, come together to quietly hand copy the U. S. Constitution. It is an opportunity for refection on the meaning and content of this foundation of self-governance, using tools that are available to all of us: pen and paper. Free copies of the U. S. Constitution will be avail- able for all participants. Bring a writing tool and paper (some paper and pens will be on hand). A free “Handwriting Tips” informational sheet will also be available. This event is a partnership between Handwriting the Constitution and Handwriting Success.
