Our Story

Who We Are

We have been moved to create a program/movement of life skills classes for our city. Born out of the need that we see teaching meditation, mindfulness, and basic life/coping skills out at the substance abuse rehab Cenikor (formerly Charlie's Place), we decided to bring these skills to the community. Our vision is that local, knowledgeable experts in the community will donate their time teaching their passion or skill as service to their fellow Corpus Christians. These classes will be open and free to everyone. Our goal is for there to be a wide range of classes in mental health and processing life events, basic life skills, expressing/fostering creativity, spirituality, etc. Some ideas we have where we need people to help teach are:

Mental Health: coping with grief, extreme loss or change, or suffering; suicide, depression, and anxiety; non-violent communication; building healthy relationships to self and others; fostering healthy coping mechanisms; emotional intelligence; mindfulness and basic meditation; discovering a spiritual path without religion; exploring consciousness; recovering from addictive or obsessive thoughts or behaviors, etc.

Basic Life Skills: financial literacy; how to change a tire/oil change and basic car mechanics; cooking, nutrition, and gut health; basic plumbing and house repair, computer literacy and web design, time management and procrastination/motivation, etc.

Creativity: music classes in guitar, piano, etc; sound bowls; writing therapies; body movement like yoga or qigong; photography; pottery; painting, podcasting, etc.

This is just a starting point! We already have teachers lined up for some of these classes, but if you want to teach something or share your passion or skill to help raise the city of Corpus Christi to a higher level of connection, happiness, and functionality, please contact us at CorpusHealingCorpus@gmail.com
