Wellness speaker brings mind/body message to campus
Motivational speaker and author Matthew Sanford reports, “It took a devastating car accident, paralysis from the chest down, and dependence on a wheelchair before I truly realized the importance of my body.”
Sanford brings his message about the fundamental importance of the mind and body relationship to Augsburg on Thursday, Mar. 8, from 3 - 4 p.m. in the Marshall Room of the Christensen Center.
He uses his story of living with paralysis to emphasize the critical role the body plays in our energy level, our ability to manage stress, our sense of wonder, and even the clarity of our thoughts. He was recently featured in the February 26 issue of "People" magazine.
This event is sponsored by the Center for Counseling and Health Promotion and is free and open to all.
