Описание к видео The May 2024 Lymphedema Patient Roundtable, Hosted by

With May being Mental Health Awareness Month, the conversation at the Lymphedema Patient Roundtable focused on the intersections of mental, emotional, and physical health when living with lymphedema. Both panelists and attendees spoke candidly about their experiences and shared different coping strategies, including how they reframe treatment time into moments of positive self-care.

The conversation was a much-needed tonic for many in the chat: "I am feeling better as this discussion has gone on," wrote attendee Christine R. "I feel hopeful."

At the end of the hour, certified lymphedema therapist Karen Ashforth led the group in an exercise in diaphragmatic breathing for stress relief and lymphatic well-being — the perfect way to close the evening.
