Free Educational Workshop on Navigating School and Work for Young Adults with Cancer

Cancer Support Community Arizona will host the EDUCATION AND EMPLOYMENT FOR YOUNG ADULTS LIVING WITH CANCER Workshop – This workshop was created for young adults aged 18-45 years who are living with and beyond a cancer diagnosis.

The workshop is designed to provide young adults impacted by cancer with the information, resources, and support to navigate education and employment. This workshop is offered virtually throughout Arizona on the zoom platform and in the Flagstaff CSCAZ office at 914 N. San Francisco Street, Flagstaff, AZ 86001. Electronic power point and handout will be sent virtually to each participant.

Key Workshop Objectives include:

• Help Young Adults impacted by cancer navigate transitions in education and employment 
• Build confidence, access resources, and connect with other Young Adults facing similar challenges

Yoga practices can provide many benefits for those impacted by cancer from improving overall health to improving quality of life. Yoga helps with stress and anxiety, pain, sleep immune system regulation, appetite and physical function.

Stress and Anxiety: Yoga can help cancer patients relax and cope with stress, anxiety, and depression. It can also lower heart rate and blood pressure.

Pain: Yoga can help reduce sensitivity to pain.

Sleep: Yoga can help improve quality of sleep and improve Circadian rhythm.

Immune System: Yoga can help boost the immune system and some studies have found consistent yoga during treatment reduces growth of tumors.

Appetite: Yoga can help increase appetite, loss of appetite is a common side effect of some cancer treatments.

Physical Function: Yoga can help improve physical function, including flexibility and balance, and reduce risk of falls. It can also help cancer patients move around more easily after surgery.

Join certified instructor Liz Springborn for yoga each Tuesday morning at the Northern Arizona Flagstaff CSCAZ location. Liz is a registered nurse serving in oncology and bone marrow transplant when she was a bedside nurse. She started yoga for her own health and wellbeing. She loves learning and completed a yoga teacher training and enjoys teaching many styles of yoga.

In Anticancer Living, Cohen (2016) tells us, “Patients who exercised while undergoing chemo or radiation were more likely to have received all their treatments on time; experienced increased self-esteem and physical functioning; reported less brain fog and more mental clarity; experienced less fatigue and improved sleep; reported less nausea and improved appetite; experienced less nerve pain and numbness in extremities, had improved mood and less depression and anxiety; experienced shorter hospital stays and fewer trips to the doctor; and, most important, experienced a higher general quality of life” (p. 205).

Grab some lined paper and a pen – that’s all you need! Writing images from one’s memory and imagination can be a healing act. According to studies, some individuals may benefit from participating in expressive writing as part of their supportive cancer treatment. The writing act can be a form of healing for patients or caregivers dealing with a cancer experience. Sue has been promoting journal writing as a tool for personal growth and self-care for many years. She prefers the term “therapeutic writing” believing It better explains the benefits inherent in its use. Research supports the effectiveness of writing to reduce hypertension and increase immune system functioning as well as many other benefits.

Taught by Sue Meyn, M C. She has presented to many organizations in Phoenix and now Flagstaff, and was a facilitator for groups at Cancer Support Community Arizona for seventeen years.

About M3F:

Rooted in a deep love of music, the arts, and the community around us, M3F Fest was founded with the purpose to give back. The idea was simple: two thousand fans, hundreds of lawn chairs, one stage, grandma’s cooking, and 100% of proceeds donated directly to charity. Twenty-two years later, we still operate under the same guiding principles, but we’ve surely grown! The M3F Fund exists as a year-round venture, using our platform and resources to try and make the world a better place. The M3F Fund wouldn't exist without the support of our incredible fans, as 100% of every ticket to M3F Fest goes directly to charity. When you buy a ticket to have the time of their life at M3F Fest, you are ultimately giving back to the community around them. This is why we say: Every Ticket Counts!

Impact:

M3F takes pride in supporting the community as one of the only 100% non-profit Music Festivals. Since 2004, we have donated over $6 million to local charities. M3F's charitable giving focuses on four main categories: Arts, Community, Education, and the Environment.

https://www.m3ffest.com/

Un programa surgido de la idea de que a veces, lo que más necesitamos es una taza de café y alguien con quien charlar. Aquí, nos reunimos para compartir nuestras historias, experiencias y sentimientos, creando un lugar donde cada participante puede sentirse escuchado y comprendido.

Acerca de M3F:

Arraigado en un profundo amor por la música, las artes y la comunidad que nos rodea, M3F Fest se fundó con el propósito de retribuir. La idea era simple: dos mil fanáticos, cientos de sillas de jardín, un escenario, la cocina de la abuela y el 100% de las ganancias donadas directamente a organizaciones benéficas. Veintidós años después, seguimos operando bajo los mismos principios rectores, ¡pero seguramente hemos crecido! El Fondo M3F existe como una empresa durante todo el año, que utiliza nuestra plataforma y recursos para intentar hacer del mundo un lugar mejor. El Fondo M3F no existiría sin el apoyo de nuestros increíbles fans, ya que el 100% de cada entrada al M3F Fest se destina directamente a organizaciones benéficas. Cuando compras una entrada para pasar el mejor momento de su vida en el M3F Fest, en última instancia, estás retribuyendo a la comunidad que los rodea. Por eso decimos: ¡Cada entrada cuenta!

Impacto:

M3F se enorgullece de apoyar a la comunidad como uno de los únicos festivales de música 100% sin fines de lucro. Desde 2004, hemos donado más de 6 millones de dólares a organizaciones benéficas locales. Las donaciones caritativas de M3F se centran en cuatro categorías principales: artes, comunidad, educación y medio ambiente.

In Anticancer Living, Cohen (2016) tells us, “Patients who exercised while undergoing chemo or radiation were more likely to have received all their treatments on time; experienced increased self-esteem and physical functioning; reported less brain fog and more mental clarity; experienced less fatigue and improved sleep; reported less nausea and improved appetite; experienced less nerve pain and numbness in extremities, had improved mood and less depression and anxiety; experienced shorter hospital stays and fewer trips to the doctor; and, most important, experienced a higher general quality of life” (p. 205). Sounds like a protocol we all should embrace. Healthy living through movement!

The Japanese practice of shinrin yoku, or Forest Bathing, is good for both physical and mental wellbeing. It is proven to reduce stress hormone production, improve feelings of happiness and free up creativity, as well as lower heart rate and blood pressure, boost the immune system and accelerate recovery from illness.

Let's support one another by introducing a healthy lifestyle choice to our Wednesdays and practice forest bathing by walking together from 9:30 am - 12:30 pm in gorgeous Flagstaff, AZ. Please ALWAYS register in advance so we know you are coming. Forest Bathing starts at noon at CSCAZ northern Arizona, 914 N. San Francisco Street, weather permitting, each Wednesday throughout the spring and summer. If we have inclement weather on Wednesday, that day will magically morph into expressive arts.

The group will depart from CSCAZ at 9:30 am and everyone is invited to bring snacks and/or lunch, water, sunscreen, a hat, and walking poles.

Upcoming destinations include:

Grab some lined paper and a pen – that’s all you need! Writing images from one’s memory and imagination can be a healing act. According to studies, some individuals may benefit from participating in expressive writing as part of their supportive cancer treatment. The writing act can be a form of healing for patients or caregivers dealing with a cancer experience. Sue has been promoting journal writing as a tool for personal growth and self-care for many years. She prefers the term “therapeutic writing” believing It better explains the benefits inherent in its use. Research supports the effectiveness of writing to reduce hypertension and increase immune system functioning as well as many other benefits.

Taught by Sue Meyn, M C. She has presented to many organizations in Phoenix and now Flagstaff, and was a facilitator for groups at Cancer Support Community Arizona for seventeen years.

About M3F:

Rooted in a deep love of music, the arts, and the community around us, M3F Fest was founded with the purpose to give back. The idea was simple: two thousand fans, hundreds of lawn chairs, one stage, grandma’s cooking, and 100% of proceeds donated directly to charity. Twenty-two years later, we still operate under the same guiding principles, but we’ve surely grown! The M3F Fund exists as a year-round venture, using our platform and resources to try and make the world a better place. The M3F Fund wouldn't exist without the support of our incredible fans, as 100% of every ticket to M3F Fest goes directly to charity. When you buy a ticket to have the time of their life at M3F Fest, you are ultimately giving back to the community around them. This is why we say: Every Ticket Counts!

Impact:

M3F takes pride in supporting the community as one of the only 100% non-profit Music Festivals. Since 2004, we have donated over $6 million to local charities. M3F's charitable giving focuses on four main categories: Arts, Community, Education, and the Environment.

Un programa surgido de la idea de que a veces, lo que más necesitamos es una taza de café y alguien con quien charlar. Aquí, nos reunimos para compartir nuestras historias, experiencias y sentimientos, creando un lugar donde cada participante puede sentirse escuchado y comprendido.

Acerca de M3F:

Arraigado en un profundo amor por la música, las artes y la comunidad que nos rodea, M3F Fest se fundó con el propósito de retribuir. La idea era simple: dos mil fanáticos, cientos de sillas de jardín, un escenario, la cocina de la abuela y el 100% de las ganancias donadas directamente a organizaciones benéficas. Veintidós años después, seguimos operando bajo los mismos principios rectores, ¡pero seguramente hemos crecido! El Fondo M3F existe como una empresa durante todo el año, que utiliza nuestra plataforma y recursos para intentar hacer del mundo un lugar mejor. El Fondo M3F no existiría sin el apoyo de nuestros increíbles fans, ya que el 100% de cada entrada al M3F Fest se destina directamente a organizaciones benéficas. Cuando compras una entrada para pasar el mejor momento de su vida en el M3F Fest, en última instancia, estás retribuyendo a la comunidad que los rodea. Por eso decimos: ¡Cada entrada cuenta!

Impacto:

M3F se enorgullece de apoyar a la comunidad como uno de los únicos festivales de música 100% sin fines de lucro. Desde 2004, hemos donado más de 6 millones de dólares a organizaciones benéficas locales. Las donaciones caritativas de M3F se centran en cuatro categorías principales: artes, comunidad, educación y medio ambiente.

In Anticancer Living, Cohen (2016) tells us, “Patients who exercised while undergoing chemo or radiation were more likely to have received all their treatments on time; experienced increased self-esteem and physical functioning; reported less brain fog and more mental clarity; experienced less fatigue and improved sleep; reported less nausea and improved appetite; experienced less nerve pain and numbness in extremities, had improved mood and less depression and anxiety; experienced shorter hospital stays and fewer trips to the doctor; and, most important, experienced a higher general quality of life” (p. 205). Sounds like a protocol we all should embrace. Healthy living through movement!

In honor of this life-sustaining practice, you are invited to join us in “15-minutes of movement” on Tuesdays and Thursdays. The sessions are held on Zoom at 4:00 pm. Take a break and enjoy 15 minutes that will help reinvigorate your day. Each day the movement will be a bit different so that we learn all sorts of different movement techniques to add to our daily movement quota.

The book "Anticancer Living" teaches us that during a cancer journey the most important thing we can do is surround ourselves with a community of people known as our "anticancer team". We need people who offer pratical support, informational support, motivational support. community support, and emotional support.

Our Tuesday Evening Social Connections in Northern Arizona programming aims to provide motivational support and community support. Group connections and social integration provide both a sense of belonging and the ability to assist others, which reinforces our own value in the world.

Third Tuesday of the month programming is Tuesday Book Club where our primary focus for the evening will be on the book selected to read and discuss by members of Tuesday Book Club. Your friends and family are invited to join you for this relaxed, interactive, evening as long as they have an interest in the book discussion.

About M3F:

Rooted in a deep love of music, the arts, and the community around us, M3F Fest was founded with the purpose to give back. The idea was simple: two thousand fans, hundreds of lawn chairs, one stage, grandma’s cooking, and 100% of proceeds donated directly to charity. Twenty-two years later, we still operate under the same guiding principles, but we’ve surely grown! The M3F Fund exists as a year-round venture, using our platform and resources to try and make the world a better place. The M3F Fund wouldn't exist without the support of our incredible fans, as 100% of every ticket to M3F Fest goes directly to charity. When you buy a ticket to have the time of their life at M3F Fest, you are ultimately giving back to the community around them. This is why we say: Every Ticket Counts!

Impact: M3F takes pride in supporting the community as one of the only 100% non-profit Music Festivals. Since 2004, we have donated over $6 million to local charities. M3F's charitable giving focuses on four main categories: Arts, Community, Education, and the Environment.

The Japanese practice of shinrin yoku, or Forest Bathing, is good for both physical and mental wellbeing. It is proven to reduce stress hormone production, improve feelings of happiness and free up creativity, as well as lower heart rate and blood pressure, boost the immune system and accelerate recovery from illness.

Let's support one another by introducing a healthy lifestyle choice to our Wednesdays and practice forest bathing by walking together from 9:30 am - 12:30 pm in gorgeous Flagstaff, AZ. Please ALWAYS register in advance so we know you are coming. Forest Bathing starts at noon at CSCAZ northern Arizona, 914 N. San Francisco Street, weather permitting, each Wednesday throughout the spring and summer. If we have inclement weather on Wednesday, that day will magically morph into expressive arts.

The group will depart from CSCAZ at 9:30 am and everyone is invited to bring snacks and/or lunch, water, sunscreen, a hat, and walking poles.

Upcoming destinations include:

   
• August 20 James Canyon Trail
