HEALTHYLIFESTYLE New Expressive Art Therapy Program Michelle’s Place is thrilled to introduce a new art therapy program for individuals
impacted by cancer beginning on March 7th. This six-session class called Expressive Art, uses art as a form of therapy and self-exploration. Sessions will help participants practice creativity while opening the door to calming strategies and awareness tech- niques. The art class will be led by Tammy Marine, Executive Director of Habitat for Hu-
manity Inland Valley. Marine has worked in the nonprofit sector for close to 25 years and is an avid artist and creator. In addition, she has received training in biofeedback and meditation and has used a variety of relaxation/calming techniques to provide bal- ance in her life for the last 30 years. After experiencing the loss of her son due to a tragic car accident, Marine used art combined with meditation to help her cope with the immense sadness she experienced. Marine believes the creative process helped
her stabilize her emotions and get on the road to healing. “This art class is designed to help participants gain better insight of themselves
through sharing feelings and exploring a host of topics with group dialog and discus- sion. It’s part art, part relaxing, part ‘therapy’ and discussion, and in addition, the class is fun!” said Marine. The Expressive Art Class will be offered at Michelle’s Place every other Monday
beginning March 7th. Participants will make their own individual art journals, free of charge, with all materials provided.
Michelle’s Place is a full-service breast cancer resource center providing
free services and resources to individuals and families impacted by breast cancer. Michelle’s Place is a 501c3 nonprofit organization.
Temecula Valley Hospital Celebrates 100th Open Heart Surgery Heart surgery patients, surgeons,
cardiologists, support staff and digni- taries shared inspiring stories of courage, trust, and gratitude at a cel- ebration of the 100th open heart sur- gery performed at Temecula Valley Hospital (TVH).. Physicians at Temecula Valley
Hospital (TVH) performed the mile- stone open heart surgery on Gale Hol- lister just 20 months after their first procedure in April 2014 Specialty nurses from the operat-
ing room, Intensive Care Unit and the 3rd floor Cardiac Care Unit greeted their former patients who often re- ferred to them as part of their family. Representatives from respiratory ther- apy, anesthesiology, and recovery welcomed their patients and spoke of their shared experience. Cardiac Services at the hospital
has grown significantly in the past two years. TVH earned designation as a STEMI (Heart Attack) Receiving Cen- ter by the Riverside Emergency Med- ical Services Agency (REMSA) in July 2014. The designation recognizes the hospital for meeting or exceeding na- tional standards in diagnosing and treating heart attacks. It also has na- tional accreditation as a Chest Pain Center by the Society of Cardiovascu- lar Patient Care. An accredited Chest Pain Center’s evidence-based, proto- col-driven, systematic approach to cardiac patient care allows clinicians to reduce time to treatment during the critical early stages of a heart attack.

cated at 31700 Temecula Parkway, and brings advanced technology, in- novative programs, patient-centered and family sensitive care to area resi- dents.
