Researcher: Andi Céline Martin, MA (cand.)

Do you want to try yoga?

Have you ever wanted to explore what the ancient practice of yoga has to offer?

WHAT: We are conducting a six-week study that will explore how yoga affects the quality of life of key caregivers (support persons) of individuals who have cancer.

WHO: If you are 18 to 65 years of age, and provide care* to a partner/spouse, family member, friend, or loved one who has been diagnosed with cancer (from the time of cancer discovery throughout the balance of life; before, during or after treatment). More than one support person/caregiver/loved one is eligible to participate per cancer survivor

WHEN: Study begins January 2012.

WHERE: Halifax, NS

TIME: Participants will be encouraged to attend as many of the 12 yoga sessions offered over the six-week period as possible.

* Providing care (or caregiving) for a person who has been diagnosed with cancer refers to providing any physical, emotional, financial, social, and/or personal care/support (e.g., by caring for someone who has cancer at home, visiting someone in the hospital, phoning a friend or family member regularly to check in on them)
