Sleep problems are common among cancer survivors. Even after treatment ends, sleep difficulties can persist due to side effects, changes in daily routines, stress, worry, and physical symptoms. Poor sleep can affect energy, mood, concentration, quality of life, and the ability to fully enjoy life after cancer.

Sleep Reset is a supportive, six-week program designed specifically for cancer survivors experiencing ongoing sleep difficulties. This group offers practical tools to help participants understand their sleep patterns and develop healthier patterns that support restorative sleep. It also provides an opportunity to connect with others who understand the challenges of sleep after cancer. Through sharing and mutual support, participants can learn from one another and feel less alone.
