Yoga is a tool to recover, reconnect, and rejuvenate. It is a way to strengthen the immune system, reduce stress, and help manage the side effects of chemotherapy, surgery, and radiation. We invite you to explore more about how yoga can make a difference and support cancer patients in this video below with Karen Gagnier.
About the Speaker: Karen Gagnier, Yoga Instructor, Breast Cancer Survivor
When Karen was diagnosed with breast cancer, and after a full year of treatments-chemotherapy, surgery, and radiation, she experienced first hand the benefits of a yoga practice. Part of her recovery plan was to share this gift of yoga and become a teacher. She is a yoga instructor for cancer survivors in the Philadelphia area.

Yoga good for curing cancer
For me, the yoga center was just one more group sending my dead wife emails and cards long after I had spread her ashes. One more source of false hope against the inevitable without even the sensitivity to stop peddling it’s nonsense after the customer was deceased.
