DERBY - The Community Health Resource Center at Griffin Hospital, 130 Division St., will host a free educational presentation on hypnosis at 6:30 p.m. July 21.

Ryan Mazurkivich, of Empowering the Mind Hypnosis, will present “Hypnosis for Stress Relief,” a free discussion of how hypnosis works and how it can help decrease stress.

Relieving stress has many health benefits, including keeping individuals from turning to harmful habits to deal with their stress, including smoking, drinking, and overeating.

“Hypnosis is a healthy and effective way to dramatically reduce daily stress,” Mazurkivich said. 
“The process of being hypnotized helps to reduce a person’s stress because it teaches them how to relax and let go of built-up tension.”

In addition, hypnosis can help individuals develop new, healthy responses to stressors, he said.

This program is part of a series of free, educational forums hosted by the Community Health Resource Center in an effort to help improve the health of the community.

To register or for more information, call Kerry or Deborah at 203-732-7399.

The Community Health Resource Center at Griffin Hospital is a traditional library that provides an array of medical and health information, including a large collection of easy to read health and lifestyle related materials.

The Center is open to the public to educate themselves on ways to enhance their well-being, prevent illness and play an active role in decisions about their health.
