HEALTHY LIFESTYLES SUPPORT SERIES: The series looks at the ways we can make small and easy changes in our daily lives for optimum health. Topics covered are: Making Informed Decisions About Complementary/ Alternative Approaches; What to Eat & Why- An in-depth discussion food as medicine; Imagery & Healing; Risk Reduction Strategies. Looking at the evidence pointing to the benefits of "anti cancer" diets, exercise, managing stress, and removing harmful chemicals from the environment. We are often left on our own to put together a healthier way of living after a cancer diagnosis. Very often there is increased anxiety after conventional treatments are completed and we are at a loss at what to do to keep ourselves healthy. We return to high stress lives giving little thought to exercise, good nutrition, and risk reduction. Call for information
