Thriving with Yoga: for women with cancer

Thriving With Yoga: for people living with cancer

Team Survivor and YogaCaps invite those with a present or past diagnosis of cancer ~ all ages and fitness levels ~ to join us for FREE yoga classes. There is a growing body of research about the benefits of yoga for those living with cancer. Yoga has the potential to:

                         ·   restore range of motion
                         ·   rebuild strength and stamina
                         · relieve tension, fatigue and anxiety
                         ·   bring a sense of calm
                         ·   strengthen our sense of well-being
                         ·   enhance sleep
                         ·   control pain and discomfort
                         ·   help witness emotion with self-compassion
                         ·   add to your social support network

Classes include gentle Hatha postures with appropriate adjustments, Pranayam (breathing exercises that rejuvenate) and Yoga Nidra (deep relaxation).
