CLAN Cancer Support will be looking at the benefits of mindfulness at its next Inverurie Coffee Morning within its wellbeing and support centre in Inverurie town centre on Monday June 4.
The charity, which provides information and support for anyone affected by cancer, will hold the event at its base on the town’s Burnside Court from 10.30am.
Lucy Morgan, CLAN Cancer Support’s lead practitioner, will join the group to explain how mindfulness can help to change the way you think about different experiences, which can help to reduce stress and anxiety.
Fiona Cormack, CLAN’s area coordinator based in Inverurie, added: “We are delighted to be welcoming Lucy to our coffee morning to give us an insight into one of the many wellbeing therapies that CLAN provides which aims to reduce stress and anxiety during what can be a difficult time in people’s lives.
“Lucy will tell us more about mindfulness, giving an insight into techniques including meditation, breathing and gentle movement.
“Our coffee mornings are relaxed and informal, giving anyone affected by a cancer diagnosis to meet with others who may be in a similar situation, find out more about the services CLAN offers and visit our Inverurie base.”
