Reflect, Create, and Plan: Davis County Hosts Intentional Goal-Setting Event

USU Extension – Davis County and the USU Botanical Center are kicking off 2026 with their first “Gather and Grow” workshop on Wednesday, January 28 from 6:30 to 8:00 p.m. Designed to help participants reflect and reset with intention, the event combines practical goal-setting advice with a fun, hands-on journaling session.

Guest speaker Megan Kessimakis will offer approachable strategies for setting goals that align with personal values, followed by a creative journaling activity where attendees can design their own goal-setting tools—like intention boards or vision pages. No artistic skills are needed, just a willingness to explore and get inspired.

Participants will leave with a personalized journal, creative tools, and a fresh outlook for the year ahead.

🌿 Wellness Wisdom with Erin 🌿

The Healing Power of Rhythm

Rhythm is one of the oldest forms of healing. Drumming helps regulate the nervous system, reduce stress, and bring the body and mind back into balance. The steady beat grounds your energy, quiets mental noise, and creates a powerful sense of connection—to yourself and to something deeper.

✨ Wellness Tip:
When life feels overwhelming, place your hand over your heart and tap a slow, steady rhythm for one minute. Let your breath follow the beat. Your body naturally responds to rhythm as safety and calm.

🪘 Upcoming Workshop: Frame Drum Making

📅 January 31, 2026
🕙 10:00 AM – 3:00 PM
💵 Pricing:

Create your own frame drum—a powerful sound tool infused with your intention and energy. Each drum is truly one of a kind.
