The Noble Circle Project: A Community of Women Surviving Cancer, a wellness program which benefits women in Dayton and the surrounding areas who have been diagnosed with cancer, will launch its fall program in September, 2006.
Eight Dayton area women, who initiated the project in 2003, had a desire to encourage other women with cancer to take an active role in improving their health and recovery. The goal of the program is to provide cancer survivors with the tools necessary to achieve significant gains in their health using a simple, natural approach.
As a program of the Wellness Connection of the Miami Valley, the project focuses on complementary healing methods that can be used in conjunction with traditional medical treatment. Participants will engage in whole foods nutrition classes, address the emotional issues related to cancer through a network of support, and experience the stress-reducing effects of practicing a form of gentle exercise and healing movement called qigong.
The fall program of The Noble Circle Project will kick-off with a weekend retreat Sept. 8-10 followed by 10 weeks of Thursday evening classes which will be held at One Lincoln Park in Kettering.
The program is open to women diagnosed with any type of cancer. The program is free to participants. Or, a tax-deductible donation may be made to cover all or some of the $375 cost of providing the program. Registrations will be accepted until August 25 and enrollment is limited.
For more information, call 937-848-6614, 937-434-9382, or go to www.noblecircle.org.
