See the current newsletter for information about:

• Our IMF Support Group rep, Kelly Sidorowicz has created guided audio meditation and yoga videos as part of the Myeloma March Awareness campaign. These interactive programs are free and very interesting. I listened to the meditation one and tried the chair yoga. It is not as easy as you think. Word to the wise... do not do the chair yoga in a rolling office chair! Not a good idea. Check them out.
