Monday’s Workshop Talks About New Normal, Stages of Emotions When Coping with Illness
Monday's Show
Georgia Shaffer, Maureen Pratt, and Mary Yerkes joined Lisa for our opening seminar for Invisible Illness Week, “Living with Chronic Illness: Why It Hurts, How to Cope.”
They shared about grieving our losses as we’re coping with chronic illness: accepting our illnesses, restructuring our life, and redefining our “new normal.”
You can still listen this program any time as it is archived. Either go to www.invisbleillnessconference.com or click in the BlogTalkRadio blue box to the right of this post.
During the 90-minute show they discuss the various emotions we deal with and what to do with them. They discussed the best effective coping mechanisms and suggestions for what to do when we’re overwhelmed.
They had time for a couple of callers who asked the panelists about certain coping tips. Elizabeth W. listened and says, “It was a GREAT seminar! I learned a lot. I will likely listen to it over to get all the tips down – I can’t write with my illness and can’t remember all that well – but it touched me deeply and honestly and hit me where I live!”
We’re so glad you enjoyed it! Be sure tune in tomorrow as we talk about relationships.
