The Roots Program of Healing Circles - Working together for proactive wellness
The Soundview Center is the venue for events and classes organized by the Roots of Wellness Program of Healing Circles. The Roots program focuses on the 10 ‘roots’ of wellness—exploration/creativity, lifestyle/daily practices, social connectedness, stress/resilience, emotional/mental health, sense of self, physical health, finances, purpose/meaning and environmental.
The mission of Roots is to help improve individual and community well-being, by creating a supportive atmosphere where people are encouraged to make positive life decisions, build community, and learn ways to improve health and wellness.
Individual well-being has been shown to be strongly linked with having meaningful community connections. Roots of Wellness strives to promote this type of connection through free events and classes to bring the South Whidbey community together and help us connect with one other.
The Roots program offers classes to the community free of charge because we believe financial restrictions should never prevent someone from participating in any of our event/classes. From participants who are not restricted by finances donations are greatly appreciated to help us be able to continue to promote our mission in the South Whidbey community.
Classes are held in Soundview Center’s Cascade Room. All classes are selected by a committee who attempt to balance the class offerings to reflect all the components of wellness. If you would like to volunteer to teach a Roots class, please read the guidelines for offerings before you submit a proposal. Be sure to indicate Soundview Center as your class location on your proposal!
