Reducing Anxiety Before Treatment: A Mind-Body Approach

In this Virtual workshop, we’ll explore mind-body techniques developed by Peggy Huddleston of Prepare for Surgery, Heal Faster© to reduce anxiety and stress-related symptoms that are common before chemotherapy and radiation.

By learning and practicing deep relaxation, it is possible to promote a feeling of calmness, which in turn soothes the nervous system and helps strengthen the immune system.

Open to clients.  Free Program with optional donations accepted at registration.
