Healthy emotions help a person be successful in work and relationships with other adults and children. It can also improve your physical health. People that are healthy emotionally are more likely to work towards goals, find resources they need, raise confident children, and attract other positive influences into their lives. Emotional health is one of the key building blocks to success.

Public Health – Muskegon County offers a healthy lifestyle informational and skill building 4-session course designed to help participants recognize unhealthy emotional patterns and the role they play in relationships with other adults and children.

Classes are the first four Thursdays of each month from 5:30 to 7:00 pm at the public health department.
Class is free of charge.

Adults and teens with parent/guardian attendance only. In person registration is required. Classes are limited to 25 participants. Call (231) 724-6350 or email healtheducation@co.muskegon.mi.us for more information.
