Welcome to Session 3: Stress and Symptom Awareness for NF Patients. We’re so happy to have you back!!

The goals for this week’s session are to:

• Learn about mindfulness
• Introduce the skill of mindful awareness to help elicit the relaxation response
• Learn more about components of the SR
• Develop the skills of SR awareness through SR warning signs
• And discuss how the RR is related to social support

We will start the session with a review of the last two weeks. Pay attention because we will quiz you at the end of today’s session! If you do not have an orange, or another kind of fruit or food, go grab one before the session starts!
