On November 3 at 6:30 p.m., the library will host a discussion called Wrap up An Organized Holiday!, which will provide tips and advice on making this holiday session stress free.

There will also be a Reiki 102 session at 6:00 p.m. on November 5, 2015.  Reiki is a healing technique in which a therapist channels energy into a patient through touch to activate the natural healing processes.  This is a follow-up session to a program offered earlier this month.

On November 11, from 2:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. a new Diabetes Support Group is forming.  In this meeting, the group will discuss goals and establish a meeting schedule.  The group plans to find speakers who can address the disease and teach group members how to live with it.  Sign up is not necessary.

On November 12 from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m., the library is offering a second Coloring Meditation Session.  Bev Milner will lead the session in teaching participants ways to relax by using coloring and meditation music.
