About this meeting
CALL TO ACTION: Take the full course. ADULT MHFA in the comfort of your own home. When you use the skills you learn in Mental Health First Aid (MHFA), you are the first line of support for a person in need. You are there to help them feel less distressed and you can be a vital source in helping them seek further assistance. Your body language, what you say, and how well you listen can have a powerful impact. The quality and type of support you offer through listening can enhance coping and self-esteem. With an accurate view of mental health challenges and using a strengths-based holistic perspective, you can help others to help themselves. You can also be an advocate, empower your community, and improve self-care. As a First Aider, you can be the one to make a difference in the life of someone with a mental health or substance use challenge. Your First Aid actions can be a first step in someone’s recovery journey. BE THE DIFFERENCE.

About the host
Hey there. I'm Ted. I'm grateful to have had so many wonderful people come across my path as I explored and discovered my journey of recovery and wellness. Now I help others navigate their personal journey. For me, finding a balanced life in an unbalanced world is important. That is what I focus on a lot. Mine hasn't always been truly balanced, but it's an ongoing journey. I walk alongside others on their path while exploring and discovering better options and opportunities toward recovery and wellness. I am a combat veteran having served in the Gulf War. My passion drives me to help guide others to a better life--professionally, personally, family, marriage, faith/spiritually, financially, health and wellness. My credentials include WRAP, OOLA Coach, DISC, Spiritual Gifts Coach, Leadership Speaker & Trainer. You can learn more about my Journey of Recovery here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=XUKhMJyupa8
Motivation for help
An anonymous speaker at an event one day, said, "Life doesn't have to be that way." Those seven words have stuck with me over the decades. They have been one consistent source of motivation for me and others.
