First MindFest mental wellness and health fair coming to Conifer Feb. 17

Eight speakers are scheduled throughout the day, talking about subjects ranging from cyberbullying to anxiety. Keynote speaker Vincent Atatchy, president of Mental Health Colorado, will talk about the definition of a mentally well community and how to create one.

Games like self-esteem bingo, a scavenger hunt and a mood jar assembly station are also on the docket, as well as raffles and swag bags.

“We all know laughter is the best medicine, so there will be a number of opportunities to be silly and laugh,” Lipson said. “We’re not meant to be serious all the time. We were meant to laugh and have fun.”
