Presentation: What’s In Your Toolbox?

Not every project requires a hammer or a pair of pliers to get the job done. The same is true for coping strategies. Different coping strategies are needed for navigating different emotions and situations. If your old coping strategies aren’t working, then it may be time to add some new tools and replenish your toolbox.

This presentation has tips and resources to help you learn which coping strategies are effective when feeling anxious, scared, overwhelmed or angry.

 

Presentation: Reduce The Risk Of Recurrence

No one can guarantee that cancer will never return, but there are a number of things you can do to reduce your risk.

This presentation outlines what steps you can take to be as healthy as possible and reduce your risk of recurrence.

 

Presentation: Power of Mantras

Mantras are short, positive statements or a single word to say to yourself each day to remind yourself of your strength and resilience. They play a leading role in adjusting mood and behavior.

This presentation will discuss the therapeutic benefits of using mantras in daily life and how to put them into practice. Links within the presentation provide additional information on various topics and coping strategies. Two worksheets can be downloaded to assist in developing your own personal and meaningful mantras.
