Hi friends,

This group meets on the 4th Tuesday of every month - we're a support group and mindfulness workshop using breathwork as our tool!

Living with a chronic condition isn’t easy; it takes resilience, creativity, a sense of humor and, of course, lots of strength. The emotional side effects of chronic pain – frustration, anxiety, depression, isolation; are tough. Connecting with others who experience similar feelings can help us cope and feel less alone.

Join us to share what you experience, learn from others, develop coping skills, engage in relaxation techniques: guided imagery, meditation, breathing exercises; and most importantly, develop friendship and support.

We spend a portion of each meeting practicing conscious breathing, we will go on a journey together. Breathwork is a powerful & innate healing tool. Breathing consciously immediately quiets down the nervous system and restores our body's rest and repair functions.

This group is for anyone coping with an autoimmune disease, chronic illness, and/or chronic pain or disability. Family members, significant others and caregivers are welcome to attend and participate in the group.

Have a blanket to further provide comfort, do not lie down if you think you will fall asleep or if it is uncomfortable or unsafe for you. This is time for you, so do what you need to do to take care of you.
