Learning Objectives
Describe the effect of stress on the lymphatic system
Demonstrate mind-body exercises
How can we help people with a cancer history reduce the effects of stress in their lives? Meditation, stress management and yoga are recommended for stress reduction in the clinical practice guidelines from the Society for Integrative Oncology, with meditation receiving a Grade A recommendation for improving QOL in breast cancer patients.
In my presentation we will practice simple stress reduction exercises people with a cancer history can add to their daily self-care routine, including practices for patients with lymphedema. I will lead attendees in experiencing a handful of mindfulness techniques in a fun, interactive environment.
