Renewing Life©, our core program, offers a unique therapeutic approach that combines the best of emotional support groups and educational programs in order to treat the whole person. This transformative service offers practical tools, support practices, and guidance through attitudinal shifts, encouraging participants and healthcare professionals to view illness as an opportunity for spiritual and emotional growth.

Renewing Life© brings together people in various stages of all different kinds of chronic illness or life-changing health situations. The goal of the program is to “teach people how to live well with illness.” Learn about guided imagery, meditation, and coping with negative emotions. Most importantly, share stories and experiences with others in similar situations.

Renewing Life is composed of the following eight sessions:

· Renewing Life Out of Illness

· The Healing Partnership of Mind/Body/Spirit

· Creating a Nourishing Circle

· The Possibilities for Growth in the Feelings You Hate

· Fear and Love

· Forgiving, Making Meaning and Reframing

· Using your Inner Healer and/or Higher Power

· Making Life Wishes/Loving Yourself Enough to Make Goals
