River Malcolm, licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, is also a Solution Method certified Provider.
The Solution Method 5-Point System is a science-based program designed to increase participants’ resilience to stress and their joy in being alive, says Malcolm. “It retrains the brain for lasting improvement in health and happiness. Developed at the University of California, San Francisco, the method integrates the wisdom of mindfulness with cutting-edge neuroscience into a simple system to pop the brain from stress to joy.
“Using the skills over time creates so much pleasure that the desire for external solutions–such as overeating, overspending, and overworking–fades,” says Malcolm.
Malcolm will offer a one-hour introduction to the Solution Method on Friday, July 17, from 3 to 4 p.m. at the Orcas Library, and again on Monday, July 20, from 11 a.m. to noon.
