The Mind-Body is about Purpose

The late Victor Frankl, Nobel Prize winning laureate, believed that the key ingredient for survival is that individual's "purpose for living". The Small Group Program respects this belief, and endeavours to help our patients find their own personal purpose. The Program does not promise cure or remission from illness, although there are studies that show that such programs may promote healing of specific conditions. The purpose of the Program is to increase awareness of one's entire intellectual-physiological-emotional-spiritual being, through use of self-care techniques. In this way, an individual is able to make life-affirming choices, and thus discover ways of celebrating all the seasons of her/his life - despite illness or other stress. As within the eye of the hurricane, the Small Group Program helps to promote a "calm" in the midst of the overwhelming pressures and concerns of life.
