​Cancer treatments can be hard on your body. Recent scientific studies on yoga and cancer show that yogic breathing exercises may help. Breathing exercises can be done at any place, at any time, and in any state of mind.

Yogic breathing may help you:

  • Cope with treatment side effects
  • Improve depression symptoms
  • Relieve chronic pain

The Princess Margaret Survivorship Program made these videos for people who may not be in their best state of health. Use the breathing techniques from the videos to help you experience the power you have to help your own body.
