Description

Healthy U Chronic disease and Diabetes Class is a small group workshop that is designed to help older adults put life back in their life. Healthy U may be for you if you have long term challenges with chronic disease or diabetes or are a caregiver for someone with this challenge. A benefit of participating in Healthy U is the support you will receive finding practical ways to deal with pain, fatigue and depression. This 'free' class, which meets once a week for 6 weeks, will help you discover ways to be more physically active, find out how to eat healthier and practice ways to relax and deal with stress. Each workshop is facilitated by a pair of leaders, one or both of whom are non-health professionals with a chronic disease themselves.
