MIND BODY MEDICINE
Educational and supportive groups to develop better self-care skills.
Are you exhausted? Does your cup need to be refilled?
Caring for others, especially the emotionally intense, can be exhausting. So who’s caring for the caregivers?
Unfortunately, in many cases, the answer is “No one.” And that challenge doesn’t seem to be going away. So how do we train caregivers to care for themselves? We lean into the medicine already in our bodies.
While this is not formal mental health therapy or intended as a substitute for conventional medical treatment or to diagnose or treat specific conditions, these eight-week journeys called MindBody Medicine offer educational & supportive groups to develop better self-care skills.

Why We’re Involved
We can’t shift the way others think, talk, act, and care about mental health and wellness without extraordinary people and partners. Here’s why some of them are helping make Shift happen.
“We were thrilled to help with the Shift Live Kick-off. Anxiety & depression have been part of our story for decades. Music & songwriting has helped us process our mental health, our faith, and our relationships. We believe that the corporate expression of music helps a community work through things too. If our time helping Shift can help one person find that kind of processing community, then it will always be time well spent!”
“I’ve always had someone in my corner. No. Matter. What. I thought everyone grew up that way. Then I grew up, and my life didn’t turn out exactly as I wanted it to be. My life turned out exactly as it is supposed to be. And I still have someone in my corner. No. Matter. What. That’s what I want to be for someone who needs it. For someone who doesn’t yet believe in herself, I will believe in her. For someone who struggles to find his significance in the world, I will connect him. For someone who hasn’t been heard, I will listen. For someone who hasn’t figured out how life is supposed to turn out, I’ll be in your corner. No. Matter. What.”
“I remember when Scott was dreaming Shift into being because he saw first hand the lack of support for emotional health and mental well-being in our community. Shift is creating space for critical conversations and I know it will have an impact for years to come.”
TODAY'S A GOOD DAY TO MAKE A SHIFT.
