Coping mechanism to help reduce stress and anxiety can be an important part of treatment for breast cancer. At a free educational forum, sponsored by the 糖心破解版 NY Statewide Breast Cancer Program, experts in meditation, mindfulness and gong meditation will demonstrate these practices and provide the opportunity for attendees to practice during the event.
Teachers are Jacob Cooper, a licensed master social work, certified hypnotherapist and Reike master, and Marc Switko, a NYS licensed psychotherapist and counselor. Mr. Cooper is a renowned speaker who assists in empowering clients to make transformative changes in their lives.
