Grace Under Pressure: Navigating Family Tensions During the Holidays

Grace Under Pressure: Navigating Family Tensions During the Holidays

Wednesday, November 12
6:00–7:30 p.m.

The holiday season often brings joy, celebration, and meaningful tradition. It can also surface stress, complicated relationships, and tough conversations around politics, beliefs, expectations, and boundaries. If you are already feeling anxious about gathering with family, you are not alone.

Grace Under Pressure: Navigating Family Tensions During the Holidays is brought to you by the Spiritual Recovery Community at Floris UMC and is designed to help you enter the season grounded, confident, and prepared. Together we will explore tools for navigating family triggers, responding with grace, and shifting tense conversations into healthier connection.

Through guided conversation, reflection, and practical examples, participants will learn strategies to:

• Recognize and interrupt emotional triggers
• De-escalate difficult or political conversations
• Set compassionate boundaries
• Respond instead of react
• Care for yourself without withdrawing
• Enter gatherings with intention and peace

Whether you are managing longstanding family patterns, anxious about political differences, or simply wanting to show up as your best self, this evening will provide space, support, and wisdom you can use right away.

Registration

Registration is required and includes an optional donation for food, which will be served during the workshop. Childcare will be available for those who register in advance.
