Swim, Surf & Wellness
Wellness: Did you know that
there is a there is an inherent
healing capacity within us all
that, when properly released, can
produce remarkable recovery,
health, and happiness? This
month the Swim, Surf, Wellness
Club is focusing on how 80
percent of healing arises from
within. In his book, How Healing
Works: Get Well and Stay Well
Using Your Hidden Power to
Heal, Wayne Jonas, MD, draws
on four decades of research and
patient care to explain how. Dr.
Jonas describes how you can take
greater personal control of recovery from illness and preventative
measures to maintain health. To provide feedback regarding this
topic of the healing power of believing in your own ability to heal,
and for more information on wellness, contact Dr. Kory Ward at

May 2021 Swim, Surf, Wellness Club Spotlight: This month's
spotlight is on both Don and Layne Strelic, recreational swimmers
who, despite growing up in California, didn't learn to swim as
children. Layne, past SSWC Secretary, took swim lessons in her 20s
when she decided that she needed to be able to rescue her son as he
explored in the water. Later she became a water safety instructor.
Don never learned to swim until he began exercising in the OHCC
pool and now joins Layne in Leesa's aqua fitness classes.
