Living Well with Chronic Conditions, Diabetes workshops
Do you or someone you know, live with a health condition that affects daily life? Workshops to achieve a healthier way of living for people living with ongoing health conditions begin as early as Feb. 17.
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 work at overcoming the symptoms. These community based workshops are based on decades of proven research at Stanford University.
The Living Well with Chronic Conditions and the Living Well with Diabetes workshops are sponsored by Living Well Central Oregon. They are designed to complement and enhance medical treatment and disease management. Through the series of classes, 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.
