Rockland FM/CFS/ME Support Group

The Rockland FM/CFS/ME Support Group has a new goal this year, which is to concentrate on our body, mind and spirit.   We meet every third Thursday of the month from 6:30 to 8:30 pm at the YIG: Your Independent Grocery, Mezzanine Level, 2737 Laurier St, in Rockland.

The stress of our FM and CFS/ME has taken a new path; the serenity of music and meditation has made quite a difference!     We say to you 'New people every year add a new light to an already established support group.'

Contact Mary Lou Wood at marylouwood1@videotron.ca to connect.
