This July we’re embracing the power of positive thought. Accepting every wiggle, wobble and stutter. Accepting that even when our bodies refuse to cooperate, we still have the power to turn every shuffle into a dance and every tremor into a beat. A new rhythm of life, based not on others' idea of normalcy, but a self-determined pace of vibrance and energy. We are here for you, and we are here for each other.

Living with Parkinson’s is uniquely stressful. Join us on July 10 at 2 p.m. ET with Dr. Rick Helmich, as he discusses a possible link between stress and the onset of Parkinson’s. He’ll also explore how stress can impact people living with Parkinson’s and their care partners, as well as therapies and non-therapeutic approaches to stress management. Kim Mortson will also join to discuss how stress impacts her life with Parkinson’s, and how she manages her symptoms.
