Fear — including fear of recurrence, scan anxiety, and uncertainty — is a natural and ongoing part of survivorship. This month focuses on learning how to acknowledge fear without allowing it to dominate daily life. Participants explore tools for responding to emotional distress with steadiness, self-respect, and compassion.

Reading: Radical Acceptance, Tara Brach, PhD

Fear of recurrence, scan anxiety, and uncertainty are ongoing realities for many survivors. Radical Acceptance offers practical tools for acknowledging fear without being overwhelmed by it. Through the RAIN framework, survivors learn to recognize anxious thoughts, sit with difficult emotions, and respond with steadiness rather than avoidance or panic. The book supports emotional regulation and self-trust in moments when fear feels persistent or intrusive.
