Gwangju Seo-gu Successfully Concludes 'Happiness Making Class' for Infertile Couples

[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters, Reporter Shin Dong-ho] Seo-gu, Gwangju Metropolitan City (Mayor Seo Dae-seok) recently successfully completed the ‘Value, Spring’ Happiness Creation Class (Infertility Self-Help Group) for 10 couples experiencing infertility.

According to Seo-gu on the 16th, this project aims to alleviate the mental distress and isolation of those facing infertility and to overcome infertility through information sharing among participants.

The program, held from April to this month, consisted of five sessions including ▲ overcoming and managing depression in infertility patients ▲ couples’ 10,000-step walking ▲ making natural herbal shampoo ▲ couples’ emotion coaching ▲ sharing feelings through handmade dried flower letter paper.

Seo-gu invited Park Hee-seok, director of the Mind Forest Psychological Counseling Center, to conduct the couples’ emotion coaching program, which gained great popularity as it provided communication and empathy theory education and practice to resolve marital conflicts caused by infertility and other issues.

A Seo-gu official said, “It is regrettable that we could not operate the program for many infertile couples due to COVID-19,” adding, “We will continue to prepare various programs to restore the emotional well-being of infertile couples and enhance their happiness.”
