What is听Living a Healthy Life?
Living a Healthy Life听is an evidence-based, chronic disease self-management workshop for people who have one or more chronic conditions or give care to those with chronic conditions. A chronic condition is defined as any ongoing health problem or disease such as diabetes, heart disease, respiratory disease,听arthritis, depression, PTSD, back pain, or other long-term problems.听
