This FREE community workshop is for anyone experiencing persistent pain (lasting > 3 months) who is interested in learning how to focus on your life rather than your pain. Tools and skills are provided to enhance your quality of life.

8 weeks: 2 hour group sessions

Some of the topics covered include:

• Week 1 – Purpose of Pain
• Week 2 – Coping with Pain
• Week 3 – Mindfulness
• Week 4 – Flare-up Plan
• Week 5 – Pacing
• Week 6 – Gratitude
• Week 7 – Communication
• Week 8 – Making Positive Change

You can self-refer by calling 587-796-0765 Or obtain a referral from your Peaks to Prairies PCN family doctor. 

When you self-refer consider having a friend register with you as this can provide support for positive change.

If you are already seeing a P2P PCN nurse, social worker, mental health counsellor, or exercise specialist you can ask them about a referral.

Weekly homework encourages you to practice the tools and skills that has been shown to reduce your experience of pain and suffering.
