July Virtual Series: Twist Out Cancer + Cancer Wellness Center

Join Twist Out Cancer and The Cancer Wellness Center for a collaborative Twistshop!

The Cancer Wellness Center is a non-profit organization aimed to improve the physical and emotional well-being of those impacted my cancer and their families. The Center provides a variety of free programs and services, including counseling and support groups, educational programs, and wellness classes.

Cancer has an immense impact on our bodies and well-being. We often feel disconnected and estranged from our bodies during treatment and lose our sense of self. This Twistshop will introduce participants to an integrative, sensorimotor-based non-clinical art therapy activity that allows one to be intuned and more connected to the body and physical self. This session will provide tools that help awaken personal insights through intuitive art making. Participants will have the opportunity to engage in  a mind, body, and brain connection as they learn to foster focus, relaxation, and resilience.
