Have you ever heard the term Social Prescribing? If the answer is no, you are not alone!
Join us for an evening with Julia Hotz as we discuss social prescribing, the healing power of nature, and an example of one local program stepping into this world. The program will include an author talk and a panel discussion with Julia Hotz, Dr. Ardeshir Hashmi (Section Chief, Center for Geriatric Medicine, Cleveland Clinic), and Beth Kelly (Director of Guest Experience, Holden Forests & Gardens).
As part of an expanded medical toolkit, teams of doctors, nurses, therapists & social workers worldwide have recently started to prescribe their patients time in nature and other social and community activities, also known as social prescriptions. These medical professionals are asking “What matters to you?” instead of “What’s the matter with you?” in an effort to promote lasting wellbeing. And science shows that social prescribing is effective in treating symptoms of many of the modern world’s most common ailments – anxiety, ADHD, loneliness, and depression – to name a few. In the first book about this topic, The Connection Cure, author Julia Hotz explores what this practice looks like around the globe and meets people personifying its revolutionary potential.
The Connection Cure will be available for purchase before and after the event.
