This is the second part of a 3-part series on Navigating Persistent Pain After Breast Cancer.
In Part 2 of our series, we move beyond the “why” and focus on the “how,” offering clear, evidence-informed strategies you can start using right away.
This session blends pain neuroscience with accessible tools you can use in daily life. We’ll cover gentle movement approaches that retrain the brain body connection, ways to reduce sensitivity in the nervous system, and techniques that help you navigate flare ups with more confidence and less fear. You’ll learn how stress, sleep, pacing, and mindset influence pain—and how small, consistent adjustments can create meaningful shifts.
We’ll also discuss how to set realistic goals, choose activities that feel safe and doable, and build a personalized plan that respects your body’s history while moving you toward greater comfort and function.
Participants will leave with a toolkit of practical strategies, a clearer sense of what helps (and why), and renewed hope that pain can change. This session builds on the foundation from Part 1.
