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/

R&R: Knitting/Grupo de Tejer
Time
10:00 AM
Location
Main House
Bring your knitting needles and some yarn and join us for this new program, which is open to English- and Spanish-speaking knitters.
All levels of knitting proficiency are welcome. Totally new to the joys of knitting? No problem - we'll teach you how to cast on stitches and introduce you to knitting and purling. Already a wiz with the needles? Terrific - bring your latest project and enjoy the company of fellow "yarnies."
Knitting is creative and fun, and the gentle clicking of needles can put you in a relaxed and meditative mood that reduces stress. It can also force you to slow down and pace yourself a little - a big plus in our often hectic lives.
As facilitator Xiomara Smith puts it, "You don’t have to be an expert to love it, but you must be patient."
You can drop in for one session or attend several; like all Cancer Support Community Arizona classes, this program is free to participants.
Traiga sus agujas de tejer y un poco de hilo y únase a nosotros para este nuevo programa, que está abierto a tejedores.
Todos los niveles de competencia en el tejido son bienvenidos. ¿Totalmente nuevo en las alegrías de tejer? No hay problema: le enseñaremos cómo lanzar puntos de sutura y le presentaremos el tejido y el fruncido. ¿Ya eres un genio con las agujas? Fantástico: traerle el último proyecto y disfrutar de la compañía de otros "yarnies".
Tejer es creativo y divertido, y el suave chasquido de las agujas puede ponerte en un estado de ánimo relajado y meditativo que reduce el estrés. También puede obligarlo a reducir la velocidad y mantener un poco el ritmo, una gran ventaja en nuestras vidas a menudo agitadas.
Como dice la facilitadora Xiomara Smith: "No tienes que ser un experto para amarlo, pero debes ser paciente".
Puede asistir a una sesión o asistir a varias; como todas las clases de Cancer Support Community Arizona, este programa es gratuito para los participantes.

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. Levantate y Recargo es Presentado Por 
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.

15-Minutes of Movement
Time
4:00 PM
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

Therapeutic Writing

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.

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.

Therapeutic Writing
Time
2:00 PM

Virtual
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.

Therapeutic Writing
Time
2:00 PM
Location
Virtual
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.

15-Minutes of Movement
Time
4:00 PM
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.

Therapeutic Writing
Time
2:00 PM
Location
Virtual
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.

Therapeutic Writing
Time
2:00 PM
Location
Virtual
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.
