A STEP BY STEP WELLNESS PROGRAM HELPING PEOPLE LIVING WITH HIV TO LIVE AN ABUNDANT LIFE
Abundant Living is a wellness program that teaches skills to deal with the emotional and spiritual aspect of living with HIV/Aids.
This program was exclusively designed by Stella Ndiho, who has lived with HIV since 2001. When she initially learnt of her diagnosis she lived with the fear of stigma and discrimination associated with HIV. Living with fear, coupled with a low sense of self-esteem, led to a life of secrecy with poor personal relationships. However, a determination to live a healthier life led her to seek ways to fight. Along her journey she learnt that emotional and spiritual wellness affect one’s physical wellness and therefore are crucial to living a healthy, longer, more productive life.
Her passion is to equip others living with HIV/Aids with the skills to tackle the various aspects of the disease. Being available exclusively online, also allows for confidentiality.
Living with HIV does not have to mean living sickly, fearful lives. Life can still be lived abundantly!
