What Can I Expect From This Learning Circle?
With the holiday break around the corner, many families have the opportunity to spend more quality time together. For some of us, this extended time together mainly affords the blessing of being together. For others, we are too often confronted with navigating difficult personalities and unsolicited comments from those nearest to us.
How do we navigate these challenging spaces to ensure we are safeguarding our mental health while still preserving our ties with our loved ones?
What Are Maristan's Learning Circles?
AlhamdulilAllah, in just six months Maristan has delivered on its promise to draw from worldclass innovative Muslim mental health research to provide psychoeducational programs tailored to the unique needs of our community. Learn more at https://maristan.org
