Managing Ongoing Health Conditions with Healthier Living

Healthier Living is a six-week workshop developed by Stanford University to help adults manage ongoing health conditions such as arthritis, asthma, cancer, chronic fatigue, chronic pain, depression, diabetes, heart disease, hepatitis B or C, high blood pressure, HIV, lung disease, obesity, Parkinson’s disease, stroke, and more.

Workshops are facilitated by two peer co-leaders in a small group setting. Participants meet once a week for 2.5 hours, learning, sharing, and building bonds.

Learn strategies and skills to improve your quality of life:

Setting and reaching goals for better health
Communicating with medical providers and caregivers
Using mind-body tools, including better breathing and body awareness
Understanding medication usage
Getting better sleep
Preventing falls
