| Support Groups Learn how to cope with and transform your feelings of fear, aloneness, hurt, anger, in a safe and loving environment. The support groups are run by professional counsellors, facilitators & an experienced meditation teacher. Relaxation techniques, meditation and guided imagery are used in helping people on the healing journey. The groups are intended to offer follow-up support for people after hospital care. This is a time when people often feel very vulnerable and the support groups offer an opportunity to overcome isolation through the sharing of feelings. Weekly meetings are held in Sydney's Eastern suburbs and Inner West. |
