OMH June Wellness Group Calendar

The Office of Mental Health offers all employees an opportunity to practice various coping skills and strengthen their resilience through OMH Wellness Groups, which aligns with OMH’s vision of supporting a healthy workplace environment. The groups include deep breathing and simulation exercises to allow employees to practice rather than have group discussions. Group sessions offer a warm, inviting space that fosters relaxation virtually and provides examples of calming techniques and basic coping skills. Remember that the mind and body are one, and psychological health is just as important as physical health to your overall well-being.

The group sessions are free, confidential, anonymous, and virtual employees can call in from any phone. Group sessions include Monday Meditation, Mindful Mondays, Taking Care of Mind & Body, Tending to Self, and Wellness Break.

There is a new group, Wellness Break, on Thursday evenings from 8 to 8:15 p.m.! We have included a flyer to promote this group. Please feel free to share it throughout your agency - especially at work locations where employees are working evening hours!

Additionally, please be aware that the Webex link for the groups has been updated – if you had previously saved the old Webex link, please update it to the new link found in the attached calendar.
