About this Event
Before the "Back to School" rush begins, June is our time to pause. We call this session The Intermission—a moment to check your "fuel gauge" and find ways to protect your peace during the busy summer months.
At Jacob Way, we believe that no family should ever face childhood cancer alone. This session is designed to provide you with the mental and emotional tools to keep going, while connecting with a community that truly understands.
Room: Arlington Tommorrow Foundation Board Room
What’s on the Agenda?
- 🌿 Wellness Activity: The "Micro-Joy" Inventory You don’t always have time for a full spa day. We’ll help you identify "micro-joys"—those 5-minute moments (a favorite song, a quick breathing technique, or a quiet cup of coffee) that can instantly shift your mood.
- 🛡️ Support Topic: Setting Summer Boundaries Learn practical strategies for protecting your time and mental energy while the kids are home and schedules are shifting.
- 📍 Peer Connection: Favorite Local Escapes We’re crowdsourcing a list of the best quiet spots in Arlington where caregivers can find a moment of zen.
