Three New Stress Reduction Strategies for 2014
Speaker: Julie Weaver-Parkes, MEd
Owner/Founder of Happy Dance, LLC
Transformational Coach
Is your plate full and overflowing with seemingly slim chance of things getting easier? A few years ago, I came to a sobering realization about my life: my responsibilities and the demands on my time and attention were not going to lighten but would most likely become even more demanding. Since I was already going as fast as I could go and about to burst lots of blood vessels in my efforts to perform at a high level in all areas, I knew I had to do something different, and fast. Fortunately for me, I learned 3 new strategies for stress reduction that significantly changed and improved the overall quality of my life and in a short amount of time. I’d like to share these tools with you and hopefully you’ll experience improvements in your life too!

Due to an error our website stated that the February 22, 2014 Girl Scout event was cancelled. Be advised that the event is still scheduled.
For the second time SWE-CM is pairing with NSBE to host an “Engineers Are Epic!” apprenticeship in connection with Citizen Schools. Twenty sixth and seventh graders will have an opportunity to experience hands on problem solving over the nine week apprenticeship with activities such as building a catapult, creating slime and building an electrical circuit. Following the apprenticeship the students present a WOW! event to the community where they teach back what they have learned.
Come on out and join us for a Thursday afternoon filled with fun and learning where you too can become a “Citizen Teacher!” Please see our calendar for details.
A successful planning meeting was held by the Executive Board on Saturday September 7, 2013 at a member’s home on beautiful Lake Norman. The calendar will be updated as dates are firmed up. We were pleased to have two members of the UNCC SWE Section join us for the planning meeting.
