    Everyone has pain at some point in life. Some of us deal with cornice pain for years. Pain can be complicated, but there are some simple tools that can help relieve pain. Research shows that understanding how pain works can help us begin to get out of pain.

    Come learn small steps you can take to reduce and manage pain without drugs or surgery with Maggie Downie, author of Keep Moving: Take Steps to Relieve Pain & Improve Your Life.

    Sponsored by a partnership between Berlin-Peck Memorial Library, Wethersfield Library, Lucy Robbins Welles Library and Cora Belden Library.

She co-founded PEEPs in Motion, which offers Workshops for Wellness–programs designed to keep people moving and reduce pain. Maggie lives in Connecticut, and enjoys doing planks in different parts of the world, seeking adventures, climbing mountains, and chocolate. She loves being in motion, but when she’s not, you can find her researching the body to better understand how movement can help us live and feel better.
