Research shows that our brains relax when we are surrounded by nature and our bodies can experience this relaxation as decreased stress and a sense of calm. Living with cancer can create so many stresses, which can in turn compromise immune functioning and quality of life.

The Center’s labyrinth & healing garden offers an opportunity to introduce our participants to potentially powerful tools they can utilize on their own to reduce stress, increase creativity, quiet the mind enough to process important questions, and find joy in the moment.
