About Our Workshops

Workshops take place both virtually via Zoom as well as in person around the Portland metro area. Addressing all aspects of oneself is critical to the healing process and because of this, workshops cover a wide range of topics.

Topics can include educational sessions on common issues facing those confronted with a breast cancer diagnosis, such as lymphedema, sex after cancer, surgery options, complementary treatment options, myofascial release, and new research. Other workshops such as forest bathing, nutrition, movement, hands on cooking, mindfulness strategies, and skin care are designed to nurture the spirit and physical body.

“Breast Friends workshops not only provide me with information relevant to where I am in the breast cancer journey, they provide me with community and support from people who understand that the journey continues through our lives. There is nothing more comforting than connecting with others impacted by breast cancer over shared interests. We are stronger together and Breast Friends enables that.”
