THE "JUST 5 MINUTES" INTEGRATIVE WELLNESS NEWSLETTER:

IMPORTANT & UPDATED INFORMATION ON 
EDS WELLNESS' PROGRAMS, EVENTS & PROJECTS

Hello again! Our 2nd newsletter serves two purposes - to ensure that pertinent information is shared (because there's a lot going on) and to help condense it into one email. I also seem to be much faster with sharing quick updates, while I continue to work towards uploading the information and resources I've promised. Managing several projects at the same time, including helping people register for Wellapalooza 2017, often causes me to be overly optimistic with how much I can get done in a given period.

So, thank you for your patience and for your on-going support of EDS Wellness' mission, initiatives, and projects!

- Kendra, Executive Director and Founder, EDS Wellness
The EDS Wellness HelpLine is open!
You can schedule HelpLine appointments by going to
Make an Appointment or send an email to helpline@edswellness.org.


Our virtual "Just 5 Minutes" classes LIVE via Facebook have started again! Register to join us TODAY at 11am (EST)!

Our classed are held Monday's at 11 am and Wednesday's at 2:30 pm (EST); however, that seems to change based on a variety of factors, including my own schedule, technology, and other factors. This is a new type of class or program and working out the kinks and finding the best flow is all part of the process.

Thank you for your support, feedback, and patience!

To register for our "Just 5 Minutes" online classes and to stay updated on the weekly schedule, go to

I will be emailing details soon.
