Each of us becomes involved in cancer advocacy because we are deeply personally affected by the devastating impact of cancer.
How can we do our work effectively, while simultaneously caring for ourselves as we navigate triggers and intense emotions?
This workshop offers a variety of tips and tools to support ourselves and one another’s self-care and mental health. It includes education on trauma and the nervous system, gentle yoga, mindful breathing, journaling and group discussion on themes explored.
This workshop was presented at the Health EMatters Conference for cancer advocates, held October 27-29th 2022 in Toronto, Canada.
