Topic: October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. You Finished Treatment, Now What?
You’d think the last day of chemo or the final radiation treatment would be a time to rejoice and celebrate.

It’s onto life “as usual” — not always easy if you don’t feel well and “active surveillance” seems served up with a hefty portion of anxiety. Come learn about the many evidence-based approaches, from diet, exercise and botanical medicine to intermittent fasting and the “head game,” to help you regain health and vitality and to actively work to prevent recurrence. This talk is also relevant for those currently in treatment and those living with cancer. We’ll also sample some delicious and nutritious cancer fighting foods!
