Do you or someone you know, live with a long term health condition that affects daily life? Workshops to achieve a healthier way of living for people living with ongoing health conditions begin as early September 22.
A chronic health problem is one that you must learn to live with for many years, such as diabetes, emphysema, arthritis, migraine headaches, depression, asthma and heart disease. A healthy way to live with a chronic condition is to find ways to overcome symptoms, such as pain, fatigue, anxiety, depression, etc. These community based workshops are based on decades of proven research at Stanford University.
The Living Well with Chronic Conditions, Living Well with Diabetes and Tomando Control de su Salud, workshops are sponsored by Living Well Central Oregon. They are designed to complement and enhance current medical treatment and disease management. Through the series of six sessions, participants will learn what they can do to feel better and manage their condition more effectively.
One series of classes and the book, Living a Healthy Life with Chronic Conditions, costs each participant a total of $10.
Living Well Central Oregon is a regional, collaborative initiative that sponsors the Living Well series through the cooperation, dedication and support of many of the health and social service organizations throughout Deschutes, Jefferson and Crook counties.
