8-Week Mindfulness-Based Cancer Recovery Program
Online Zoom program, with Valeria Galetto, PhD

If you have received a cancer diagnosis, you know the emotional part can take a toll on you. Research shows that if you learn how to manage your stress and anxiety, you can improve your quality of life and become an active participant in your own recovery and survivorship.

This program is based on Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR), a therapeutic combination of mindfulness meditation, gentle yoga, and simple practices designed to let go of fears and concerns and focus on getting well.

Please plan to attend all nine sessions (Including the Saturday Session).

The mindfulness subject matter builds from one session to the next, so it is important that attendees can commit to at least 6 of the 8 class sessions to participate. Should these dates not be convenient, please reach out for alternative support at 415-885-3693.

Tuesdays, September 22nd – November 10th| 3:00pm – 5:00pm PST

NOTE: additional Saturday, November 7th | 10:00am – 2:30pm PST
