Wellness Workshop: Holistic Health for the CurePSP Community (Day One)
Join us for the Wellness Workshop: Holistic Health for the CurePSP Community!
At CurePSP, we encourage everyone in our community to focus on many different aspects of wellness throughout their disease journey or the journey of their loved ones, including caring for their physical, mental, emotional, social and intellectual needs.
Through the Wellness Workshop: Holistic Health for the CurePSP Community, you will discover new self-care techniques, interact with others who are also searching for ways to maintain wellness, and learn which changes you can make to your lifestyle that will make the greatest impact on your overall health.
This year’s virtual Wellness Workshop will consist of educational and interactive presentations related to dignity therapy, voice exercises, mental wellness and chair exercises. Following the presentations, participants will be broken out into interactive discussion groups to connect with other attendees, talk through the subjects covered during the workshop and reflect on what wellness means to them.
Registration is free of charge.
All sessions will be recorded and posted on our YouTube channel after the event.
