NEWPORT — Samaritan Health Services is hosting a free wellness seminar, “Faith, Hope and Love,” exploring how lives with purpose and meaning can be powerful tools for better health.
It will be facilitated by Dean Shrock of Yachats from 2-3:30 p.m. Feb. 22, at the Center for Health Education in Newport.
Schrock’s talk will explore how people need to feel loved and cared for, and that lives with purpose, meaning and something greater than the physical are powerful tools for better health. There will be a spiritual component to the presentation, but not a religious one.
Shrock is the author of “Doctor’s Orders: Go Fishing,” “Why Love Heals” and “Living and Thriving: A Mind-Body-Spirit Program for Wellness.” Shrock served as director of Mind-Body Medicine for a physician management group of 40 cancer centers in the Midwest before moving to Yachats.
The Center for Health Education, 740 S.W. Ninth St., is located directly west of Samaritan Pacific Communities Hospital.
Registration is required. To reserve your seat for the free wellness seminar, contact Amy Conner at aconner@samhealth.org or call 541-574-4952.
