Event Description
What makes you feel-good? When you're at home is it listening to good music, watching a good film, or doing some crafts? When on holiday, does walking on a beach or up a hill or sitting with a pint in front of a beautiful view make you feel better? When with friends, what are your favourite 'feel-good' activities? We will have a different theme each month, sharing feel-good moments that are linked to the theme.
This is a space to share stories, songs, art, and poetry. You can be as creative as you like in telling your feel-good moments - each member will get 5 minutes to share. We hope to inspire each other to think creatively and feel good!
- Duration: 60 mins
- Online Zoom event: Join from your computer, phone or tablet (no replay available)
Meet the Host, Elaine
Elaine is semi-retired from library and Bibliotherapy work. She is registered on The Scottish Storytelling Directory telling stories at schools, festivals, and local storytelling groups. In her "free time", she likes nothing more than to chat about books, poems, and stories which make people feel good. Elaine is a member of the Rest Less Book Club to share her love of reading, and is a member of a local choir so loves to sing as well!
Preparing for the Event
For the best experience, you will need to have Zoom downloaded onto your computer. Please ensure you're connected to broadband/wifi rather than using your mobile phone connection (3G/4G).
We also recommend that pets are either calmly sitting on your lap or in another room, and any refreshments you may require are within your reach!
More Information
What if I can’t make the event?
If a recording’s available for the event, you can still register for it and we will send you an email with a link to a recording shortly after it ends.
Will my camera be on and will I be visible to the other people?
Your camera and microphone does not need to be on for you to enjoy the event. The choice about whether to do this is completely yours.
How do I watch the live event?
Rest Less events are hosted on Zoom, a computer application that allows you to attend online events just by clicking a link. For detailed instructions, please go to our "FAQ" page, which you can find a link to in the nav bar at the top of the page.
How do I sign-up for and access the recording? (Recorded events only)
Book the event as normal (as if you are attending live). After the event ends you will automatically receive a post-event email with a link to the recording, as long as the event was recorded. You do not need to do anything else and there is no separate booking process for recordings only. Please note it can take up to 24 hours for Zoom to process recordings.
