Rural Resilience Studio: Winter–Spring Workshop Series
We’re excited to share the Resilience Rising "Rural Resilience Studio" calendar with you all! These is our monthly series of creative, reflective workshops hosted in partnership with The Church Project in Monte Vista.

These sessions invite community members to slow down, explore creativity, and connect—with themselves and with one another. Each workshop is facilitated by a local or regional artist and offers a gentle, accessible entry point into meaning-making, storytelling, and mental wellness through art.

No art experience required—just curiosity and an open mind. All sessions noted in the calendar occur on Sunday from 1–4 PM at the Church project in Monte Vista. We're excited for you to join us!

In recognition of Mental Wellness Awareness Month, Rio Grande Hospital & Clinics invites you to join us for an informative and engaging presentation with Dr. Grotefend.

This presentation will focus on how mental wellness begins with small daily habits. Caring for your mind can be simple—brief meditation or breathing exercises can help reduce stress and improve focus, while regular physical activity boosts mood and energy. Nutritious eating supports emotional balance, and together these habits strengthen overall mental wellness.

The first Friday of 2026 is upon us and to kick off this new year of journaling, we encourage you to think about "What am I thankful for this season that can’t be wrapped, served, or bought?"

Whether it’s a moment of laughter, a sunrise walk or the strength you didn’t know you had. Write it down, reflect on it and if you'd like to share - tag us!

As 2025 winds down, we invite you to take a quiet moment to reflect - - Not on resolutions or reinvention, but on the resilience, care, and courage it took to get here.

What did you learn about your needs this year?
What supported your health—your whole health—when it mattered most?
What are you ready to carry forward with more intention?

Tonight, we celebrate not just the turning of a calendar, but the simple, powerful act of choosing wellness—again and again.

Wishing you a peaceful close to this year, and a nourishing start to the next. From all of us at Rio Grande Hospital Wellness Center—Happy New Year.
