Survivor Yoga
Yoga for breast cancer survivors
About
Breast cancer survivors typically have a specific set of needs and problems that arise from treatment, surgery and trauma of diagnosis. Yoga, meditation, and mindfulness can be ways of coping with diagnosis, facing treatment, enjoying life in the moment, and connecting survivors and caregivers in a meaningful way.
In addition to emotional side effects, survivors may deal with physical side effects from cancer treatment, like range of motion issues related to surgery, radiation, or reconstruction, lymphedema related to surgery or lymph node removal, and loss of strength.
Sisters and breast cancer survivors themselves, Ruth and Laura guide you through safe yoga practices wherever you are in your treatment or recovery, giving you the tools to establish your own practice and regain some control over your physical and emotional well being.
Join us to breathe, connect with your body and your community, and create your own survivorship story.
