You Can Break the Symptom Cycle March 16, 2010

Chronic health problems can result in a vicious cycle of symptoms such as fatigue, shortness of breath and pain, coupled with difficult emotions like fear, anger and frustration. As this cycle persists,
quality of life suffers. Linda Graham, RN, BSN, Healthy Living program coordinator, Tuality Healthcare, will demonstrate simple physical and mental exercises that help many people manage the
symptoms of their chronic health conditions. This is an introduction to Stanford University’s Chronic Disease Self-Management Program, available as Tuality’s “Living Well with Chronic Conditions”
workshop. Myriam Vasquez, health educator with Tuality’s Salud Services, will be available to answer questions about the equivalent Spanish workshop, “Tomando Control de su Salud.”
