Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction & Self Healing Techniques : For people who are diagnosed with Cancer
The stress of living with cancer can benefit from a personal healing quest – to find coping and healing skills you can use every day. In this three-week class, we will explore Mindfulness Practices, Energy Techniques and Personal Expression as ways to support you on your journey.
Mindfulness practices will support you in meeting your fear in a new way. Fear, anger and depression are a normal part of any serious diagnosis, yet often times we do not know how to meet these emotions and care for them. So they stay longer and distract from our healing. Learning how to be with these emotions creates the space for your body to move into its own innate capacity to heal.
Energy Techniques will teach you how to maintain your energy levels and learn to develop stronger boundaries for yourself. You will learn to manage your stress and explore the aspects of your life that give you nurturance.
Personal Expression will allow you to share both your feelings and also tap into your innate creativity to foster healing.
