Finding Mental Strength through Physical Activity
Event Description
Linnley Sweening, HealthTree's Fitness Director and Cancer Exercise Specialist, will speak with us all about physical activity for AML. Movement is useful beyond keeping us strong physically. It can help you manage the stressful nature of an aggressive cancer, resulting in significant benefits on your mental and emotional wellbeing. Come learn from Linnley about the benefits of physical activity, and how you can incorporate movement into your daily routine as an AML patient.
