Our Why
Our cancer journey has taught us one simple thing: there is another way to be in the world – one where fear and internal barriers are replaced with inner freedom.
We believe cancer is a gateway to that freedom, a healing of the whole self – mind, body and spirit - to unlock your fullest life.
The Science of Thriving
Cancer impacts the mind, body, and spirit, yet the mind and spirit are often neglected in the cancer journey. ​
​
Science tells us that our mind and spirit are critical factors in how cancer patients cope with their illness from diagnosis through treatment and beyond.
Research shows a strong relationship between spiritual health and both mental and physical health.
​
We believe cancer is an opening to spiritual health, to the inner freedom we need to live life to the fullest.
​
So, if you want to not only survive your cancer but thrive beyond it, Thrivers Ark has been built for you.
Our Mission
You may not be able to change your diagnosis but you can change how you live with it. Thrivers Ark gives you tools to unlock a healthier whole self through transcending the barriers that prevent you from living your fullest life. That’s what it means to thrive.
