Are you a MaineHealth cancer patient or caregiver, either in current treatment or in your first year of survivorship? Are you interested in learning tips and tools to handle the big feelings that often come after a cancer diagnosis?

Please join us for our 5-week Mind Over Matter class where you will learn skills to cope with the fears, worries and sadness that come up for many people going through cancer. This is not a support group and is instead a skill building class. Each 1.5 hour class will include an: Emotion (feeling) based exercise, a Relaxation exercise, and a Cognitive (thinking) exercise. You will be asked to practice these new skills between classes.

The Mind Over Matter class was developed by Inova Life with Cancer and is facilitated by MaineHealth oncology social workers Magda Alden, LCSW, OSW-C and Carrie Maynard, LCSW-OSW-C.

This is a 5 week series and the skills build each week, so we ask for a commitment to attending at least 4 of the 5 classes. 

Open to adult MaineHealth cancer patients & caregivers, in current treatment through first year of survivorship.

* Please contact Magda Alden, LCSW if you have further questions 207-396-8537 or magda.alden@mainehealth.org

Birth is a normal, natural, process. Just like each person is unique, each pregnancy, labor and birth are unique. At Lincoln Hospital Family Birth Center, we believe the best approach is supporting the birthing person as they navigate this natural, beautiful process. We support your decisions and value client input as a vital part of the birthing experience and labor process.

As your family prepares for labor, delivery, and the arrival of this precious new baby, we are here to help make this exciting new journey the best experience it can be for all. Our childbirth education classes cover pregnancy, labor and delivery, and newborn care. We use videos, stories, photos and animations, activities and games as well as demonstrations to teach all the essential information parents need to prepare for the birth of their baby. Class sizes are limited to provide individualized attention.

It is recommended that expecting clients finish this series around 3-6 weeks before their due date. This class is for patients and their support person(s) and is now a two part series with an optional breastfeeding course (separate sign up) offered at varied times over the course of the year.

For more information about our class offerings, please call the LH Family Birth Center at 207.563.4536 to speak to one of our nurses.
