That is the theme behind a breast cancer retreat going on this Saturday at the Ganong Nature Park, located at Todd's Point, outside St. Stephen.
Co-chair of Breast Friends Charlotte County Support Group Shirley Johnston tells Tide News the event will have no talk of cancer, but instead will focus on learning how to live well in mind, body and spirit. She says the purpose of the retreat is to get women in a healthier place.
Johnston says there is no way to stop bad thoughts if you are living with cancer, but you can learn not to dwell on them.
Johnston says there will be local speakers and presentations on nutrition and yoga.
She adds, the day is open to any women currently with -- or who have endured -- any type of cancer, not just breast cancer.
The retreat will be held Saturday, September 7th, from 9am-4pm. Registration starts at 8:30am. Cost is just $10 per person.
