MBC IN THE CARIBBEAN - SPIRITUAL WELLBEING MODULE
Spiritual Wellbeing Module
This module focuses on the critical role of spirituality and faith in building resilience and developing effective coping strategies for individuals navigating a cancer diagnosis.

Participants will be guided to identify their personal coping and faith systems, explore mindfulness tools, and discover avenues for self-care and community support.
