For years I have put my work station facing a window, or at the very least, had regular breaks by looking out a window into the distance.
I have done this for my eye health and in the morning to set my internal, circadian rhythm, clock. It has made a great difference in my sleep patterns and quality of work.
But there are other benefits too it seems. On my walks from here on out, I am going to consciously seek out the horizon more often.
“Getting outdoors or looking outside deserves special mention. The neuroscientistAndrew Huberman talks about the calming effect of horizon vision on our nervous system.
When we are staring at something close up for long periods of time (think iPhone or Zoom) our brains are vigilant and focused which leads to increased levels of norepinephrine (an adrenalin like molecule) in the brain which, guess what, creates low-grade anxiety.
Basically, it goes like this. We have four bodies of energy or four rooms in our one house, if we spend too much time in one and not enough in others, we’ll be in a state of imbalance.
THE FOUR BODIES: All bodies are equal and all need to be nourished, supported, and balanced!
Physical body: Does not make up more than others. Needs to be pain-free, comfortable, and in a clean, healthy, restful state.
Spiritual body: Needs to be provided a peaceful, supportive, tranquil space, where one can reflect upon their beliefs and states of being.
It’s important to note that through these bodies we experience great self-worth, pleasure, joy, comfort, love, care, and intimacy with others.
We’d be wise to tend to our four bodies in a balanced manner in order to be healthier, happier, and do a better job. This may help us to be at peace with our lives and relationships. —
Dr Bullen did a visualization asking us to “not see” a white horse, silhouetted by the moon. As soon as she described it everyone saw it!
Next, she did a visualization of a lemon, the taste in your mouth, with a full description in slow detail. She asked who, at the end, had produced saliva enough to swallow? The majority of the audience had! It being a positiveaffirmation made it easier to visualize.
She suggested to write six pages of Affirmations a day. Fill a book!
Speak, write, walk the Affirmation.
Make a statement in the present, of your future goal.
You will get to the health goal by saying you are well, you will not be lying, as this is your goal, to get better.
You are making a journey, by saying, “I am well”.
State the future goal.
Write it as many times as you can, in your spare time, even write it on scraps of paper.
“Every day in every way, I am better and better.”
Talk to yourself and say the Affirmation.
Walk and say short Affirmations. Say each step, “Healthy body, Healthy mind!”
Condition yourself through colored paper. Choose a color paper and write the Affirmation on it in bold writing.
Put it in a place where you will see it often, in the bathroom or on the fridge for example. Use smaller pieces of the same color paper and place in differentplaces, in your handbag, on your dresser, mirror for example.
Whenever you see that color you will receive a subconscious affirmation, the statement written on the large colored paper.
Use a tape/mp3 with your affirmations on it and use it at night while you sleep. Repeat the Affirmations on the tape/mp3.
Visualize the Affirmation as a goal that happened. (Absolutely inevitable)
Don’t use “not, so not, have not, I should or I will be. Make the Affirmation, as has happened.
PS: I followed this Affirmation information in order to increase my Natural Killer cells and my health in general and I can say it really worked with a 60% increaseover 6 weeks, verified by Dr Bullen’s lab testing.
This is a serious topic which we are going to discuss three natural tips to reverse it. This is very important information.
Lots of people are suffering from Autoimmune Disease.
There are over one hundred diseases out there. Dr Tom O’Bryan is an expert on Autoimmune Disease and helping people to get out of the problems.
Let’s talk about the top causes of Autoimmune Disease.
Dr Tom:Everybody asks what is an Autoimmune Disease. The body’s immune system…designed to protect you, decides to attack your own body’s tissues. That is the autoimmune mechanism. Why is that happening?
Has your immune system gone haywire? And the answer is no. Almost all the time the immune system has not gone haywire, it’s trying to protect you. What is it trying to protect you is the million dollar question. And the most common “triggers” in the medical literature are:
Most Common ‘Triggers’ – Environmental Toxins- air you breathe, water we drink, etc
The first one is Environmental Toxins– air that you breathe, water we drink and sometimes the air we breathe indoors is more toxic than the outdoor air, so you have to learn about that.
Foods – WHEAT (Non-Celiac Wheat Related Disorder)
The second one is foods associated with autoimmunity is – WHEAT (Non-Celiac Wheat Related Disorder) not just Celiac patients, but all of us. It used to be called Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity but now we know it’s much more than just gluten. We now call it Non-Celiac Wheat Related Disorder.
And the third one is bacteria that’s getting out of our gut and into the blood stream. Let’s say the bacteria is called Proteus. If it gets into your blood stream and your immune system makes antibodies to fight Proteus.
It’s like Proteus has an orange vest, and the antibodies are looking for the orange vest in the blood stream, but the surface of your joints, the protein on the surface of your joints called Collagen includes what looks like the orange vest, the protein signature of the Proteus.
So the antibodies, going after Proteus can attack your joints. Then you start getting the inflammation that can start the whole autoimmune mechanism against your joints. You get Rheumatoid Arthritis. Just go into Google and type in Rheumatoid Arthritis and Proteus and you’ll see some of the studies on that.
That’s true for Multiple Scoliosis and Psoriasis and losing your hair called Alopecia. Most Autoimmune diseases, we now know have an antigenic, fancy word for a trigger, that the immune system is attacking that trigger and it may go after your tissue.
And so it’s wheat, environmental toxins and bacteria. Those are the big three.
Jonathan: You just really want an answer, that Western mindset. Tell me what I have got to do to get rid of Autoimmune Disorders. I’ve been exposed to environmental toxins, bacteria and wheat.
You’re eight, you’re ten, you’re fifteen, you’re twenty years old. Everything was ok. Why are you sounding the alarm about all of these things and why are you saying to everybody that these are the top causes for Autoimmune Disorders when I was fine my whole life?
It’s only NOW that I’m suffering. How could it be these things? What’s your answer Dr Tom to those who are thinking that way, right now.
Dr Tom: That’s a really good question and the answer is:
The straw that broke the Camel’s back.
We have more toxins in our environment than ever before in the history of humanity.
We suffer from toxic OVERLOAD in our environment!
The list is startling and overwhelming to learn just how much this is going. You want to know how bad your air is where you live? Go to a car wash, a nice car wash. Drive home, park outside, set your alarm for four hours.
Go back outside, run your hand across the windshield of your car. That’s what you’re breathing, all the time. And that particulate matter can be very, very toxic and in most cities, it is.
Car fresheners – I won’t go into an Uber if it’s got an air freshener, cancel the ride and do another one. Every exposure just adds a little more.
Your analogy of a bath tub of water…every exposure, a little more water in the tub, and a little more water in the tub, and a little more water in the tub.
Just think of the clothing you wear, going often to the cleaners, and if you don’t go to a green cleaner, the chemicals are in your shirt, your pants, your coat and they out-gas it into the air and you’re breathing this stuff.
That’s just one more load, a little more water in the bath tub.
You pump gas. When you pump gas, can you sometimes smell the benzine? You smell the gas? You’re smelling Benzine! Benzine, when you’re smelling it is causing a ‘leaky brain’. When you’re smelling it, you’ve heard of ‘leaky gut’, you get a ‘leaky brain’ which activates inflammation in the brain every time you smell it.
So when you have to get gas, you smell the gas because you’re downwind, walk around the other side of the hose and now you’re upwind. We have to start thinking like that, the little things we can do to reduce the load, the toxic load that we’re being exposed to.
We have more toxins in our environment than ever before in the history of humanity.
Every exposure adds a little more in the tub, analogy of water in a tub. When you get a leaky gut, you get a leaky brain. Start thinking of little things that help us to reduce the toxic load that we are being exposed to.
Jonathan:You know I am educating you on these things a little bit more, but I have to be honest with you, a lot of the health providers I work with, they often have said to me, their experience with the public is that most people are not interested in prevention. And that’s a sad commentary.
I’m hoping it’s wrong for the people who are watching this video, I’ll be very honest with you, but that is exactly what we are talking about here.
It’s appreciating all of these things before they become a real problem, should be addressed. We should really be making this a top priority. Have fun with it! Don’t get stressed about it.
We’re now getting into three natural tips that we have for you that will absolutely help you to calm things down. Because when we aren’t mindful, we are living a pro-inflammatory lifestyle when we aren’t very disciplined in our own life, just like Dr Tom just mentioned… ‘No, I won’t get into an Uber that smells like an air freshener.’ Or changing the position where you are standing at a gas station so you can be upwind and breathe air that is okay.
Let’s talk about some of the ways that we can help people to know that they are going in the right direction and can calm down this inflammatory response in the body. And they don’t always have to live with these Autoimmune Disorders.
Dr Tom:I’m going to comment first on what you said about most people don’tthink about prevention, and that’s true unfortunately and for those who are watching this at this point you haven’t clicked off, it’s because you are thinking about prevention. For those who don’t think about prevention, well you’ll come back when you’re sick enough. That’s all you can do and it’s when they’re ready.
So I was asked to give three things that can help with the entire Autoimmune Mechanism:
The first one is Test…Don’t Guess.Find a Practitioner who will run the test for you to see, are you in danger right now?
Get a doctor that will run the test to see…are you at risk RIGHT NOW?
Because you don’t develop an autoimmune disease when you get the symptoms of your hair falling out or you’re wearing socks to bed, ‘cause you’re so cold, which is a thyroid thing. That’s not when you develop the disease. That’s when you’ve killed off so much tissue. Now the symptoms are obvious that it’s years beforehand that this occurs, so you want to test to identify if you are on the Autoimmune Spectrum.
The second thing is Gluten Free, Dairy Free, Sugar Free
FREE!! Live: Gluten Free, Dairy Free, Sugar Free
Go squeaky clean, gluten free, dairy free and sugar free for three weeks. Just see how you feel and if you notice that you’re feeling better overall, no cheating for three weeks, you can be assured that there was an autoimmune mechanism going on in your body to some degree.
Jonathan:What was the exact testing that would be a good for them to do with the right healthcare provider?
Dr Tom: You can go to my website: https://thedr.com All the tests are there.
The bottom line, there’s two laboratories there, is that tests there that go in that direction , there are a number of tests, depends on which one you need. One laboratory is Cyrex Laboratories, the other one is Vibrant Wellness Laboratories, and the second one is the most current, up to date, comprehensive of any thing on the planet, but both of those are really good labs and which test depends on your genetics, your history, your family history.
Jonathan:The biggest thing obviously food-wise for a lot of you dealing with Autoimmune Disorders is definitely food number two. Take a good, hard look at the glutenous foods that you might be eating, that conventional dairy out there, the processed sugars, really be okay with doing this kind of work and start getting them out of your life. As Dr Tom just mentioned it’s so important to realize that in the next few weeks you make these changes, you should feel a lot better.
This next lecture is about nutrition presented by Dr. IvyBullen.
Nutrition can prevent 63% of health killer diseases such as cancer, heart attacks and strokes.
Diet patterns – are linked especially with breast and colon cancer.
Chew well – 23 times for each bite. Drink nothing with a meal to digest fully. Water – will dilute gastric juices in stomach.
Free Radicals cause damage to our bodies. They neutralize themselves by attaching themselves to our body cells. Free radicals are attacked by Antioxidants. Some foods are very high in Antioxidants.
Many things affect the food we eat:
1) Quality
2) Quantity
3) Efficiency of digestion.
4) Everyone is different.
Let’s first look at quality of food:
The soil, chemicals and the manufacturing of food, the trace elements are governed by farming. Is the soil overworked?
Chicken, in Australia, is soaked in chlorine, before it is sold. This makes the flesh a pink type color, instead of the original yellow color seen in many Asian countries. Even “free range” chicken is under this law, but escapes the added antibiotics that are added daily to the chicken feed.
People with chronic fatigue do much better after they change to organic food. Excellent food is needed right after surgery. It is often very difficult to get in hospitals. In Australia, the hospital food is very inadequate. When a person is sick they need better than average food to help them get better.
People on vegetarian diets seem to do better with an increase in the variety of vegetables and fruit in their diet.
There are 8 amino acids that you must take in daily. The right types of foods are needed for this.
There are various food groups that need to be eaten daily:
1) Cereals, nuts, rice and seed groups.
2) Legumes and tofu, soy group.
For a vegetarian, they must take food from both these groups daily to obtain the 8 amino acids that are needed to replace red meat.
Fishis very good, but add to the diet after chemotherapy and radiation treatments are completed. Deep sea oily fish contain essential Omega 3 fatty acids.
Mullet, tuna, salmon and sardines are examples of deep sea oily fish.
Oil,when cold pressed, during manufacturing, and not heated, do not contain free radicals. Buy Extra Virgin Olive Oil in a brown bottle for best results. Do not heat oil to prevent free radicals from developing.
Processed food is dead food and should be avoided.
Sugar is stress food, and causes hyperactive behavior. Better to develop low stress eating habits.
A study in Australia on sugar intake by the public was done at the turn of the century and the following statistics were shown:
People consumed 4-5 lbs. pounds, per head, per year.
They consumed 25 lbs. per head, per year, after the war.
The early 90’s showed that they consumed 120 lbs. per head, per year. These statistics can be halved to get the weight in kilos.
Sugar is in tinned foods, packed cereals, cakes, biscuits, drinks, coco-cola, Soya drinks, yogurt, diet cola, which also has some very nasty chemicals in it.
Dried fruit is highly concentrated sugar, though natural, still sugar and the body reacts the same as receiving sugar. Should be reserved for special occasions.
The Macdonald’s Hamburgers are sometimes water buffalo meat and beef from the cow. The health department can’t tell the difference. Macdonald’s buys it for 50 cents a kilo. Hamburger helper, which tastes like beef has been an addition to the hamburgers, when beef was in short supply. ( Stated by the late, Dr Ivy Bullen, 1999)
Lysteria on vegetables in hotels can develop just from being in the fridge.
Always wash fruit and vegetables very well, with a vegetable wash from the health food shops. If possible, drain and rinse in fresh water with a cup of cider vinegar in it.
This doesn’t kill the lysteria, but it slows it down. Lysteria doesn’t like lemon juice or lime, and they are good to pour over fresh salads. Lysteria doesn’t like the acids.
Fresh veges are better than frozen, as they contain more antioxidants!
Peel all root veges, due to possible soil problems.
Limit oil in salads and only use cold pressed oils, such as olive oil.
Preferable to grow 1/3 of your veges, eat 1/3 organic, and 1/3 from regular market.
Raw food is healthy food. The longer veges are cooked, the less nutrients they contain. Lots of salads are recommended, but do not keep overnight. Use same day.
Vegetable juices, mix of carrots, celery and beetroot are best taken 2 times a day, 2 glasses, and 750 mls- 1000 mls especially during treatment times.
Alfalfa sprouts produce toxins to protect themselves. Causes blood disorder in cows. Eat lettuce, fennelcreek, snowpea, sunflower sprouts.
Try seed crackers with avocado, tomato, sunflower seeds and pepper.
Tempe is made from fermented soy products. Cook in low salt soy sauce or cut in strips and eat in salads or “stir fries”.
Almonds and Brazil nuts are protected from oxidation by their protective coats. Raw cashews are not protected, no protective shell.
Peanuts can be infected by a fungus, which leaves a toxin and can cause liver cancer.
Pasta is processed and not recommended for daily intake.
Plastic electric jugs are not good to use, due to the chemicals released from the plastic when it is heated.
Microwave ovens are very dangerous and are not recommended for cancer patients, or anyone who is conscious of their health.
Aluminium saucepans are also not safe to heat.
White flour is heavily processed.
Avoid caffeine, coffee, chocolate and tea to avoid adverse effects.
Peppermint tea is good for digestion and Chamomile is good for sleep.
Unprocessed honey is preferred if sweet is needed. Processed honey is often cut with sugar.
Drinks that have no added sugar are concentrated, the water has been removed, then added to reconstitute. They don’t add as much water again, so it is recommended to dilute it by 50% again.
Fruits are complex carbohydrates. Dark grape juice is very concentrated. Red grape juice also contains lots of antioxidants!
The immune system is very sensitive to wine. The brain, liver and immune system respond better to no alcohol.
Red meat and animal fat contain chemicals and antibiotics.
Orange juice that says it has no added sugar is covered legally due to the fact that the amount of sugar added is to cover the taste of the peel and pith that is added while being processed.
Japanese green tea is very good, especially for Oesophageal cancer. It is made from new green shoots and has a negligible amount of caffeine in the growing part of the plant. 4 cups of green tea a day is very good. It is full of Antioxidants!
Margarine is very bad for us. It has been a liquid and chemicals are used to make it a solid. Additives are added and more chemicals. The oils are heated to make it a solid.
Butter is a dairy product and contains animal fat, which is not recommended for health reasons. Good alternatives to butter are avocado, hommus, (chic pea dip), and mashed banana.
Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), is better without dairy products. Asthma is better without dairy products.
Sensitivity to dairy products can cause health problems.
Children up to 3 or 4 have rennin in their stomachs and can therefore digest dairy products better. After that it becomes more difficult to digest properly.
Good alternatives are soy milk, especially calcium enriched if available, tofu, and veges, for extra calcium. Soy cheese is also a good alternative for occasional use.
Calcium is used to make Tofu.
Goats milk is more easily digested than cow’s milk.
Take goat’s or sheep’s yogurt, rather than dairy.
If you have arthritis, give up milk.
Smoking has an anti Vitamin C effect.
Salt has an effect on calcium requirements, if stopped then you increase your calcium intake. Rock salt and sea salt is not recommended for this reason.
Salt is very bad for Osteoporosis. Low salt Tamari Soy Sauce is recommended to use instead of regular Soy sauce. But only 1 tablespoon a day, to help flavor a meal.
Calcium also is affected by too much protein, if the protein intake is very high, the calcium level drops.
Salt is connected to hypertension. If using heavy labor, and losing lots of sweat, then add salt on food, otherwise not.
Tofu should be used within 48 hours of purchase.
Chop a selection of veges and place them in a little low salt soy sauce, add fresh ginger and garlic and cook. Cook harder veges first, and steam and gradually add all the veges.
Add precooked brown rice after veges are cooked, chinese mushrooms,shitake mushrooms, slice small and thin and add. Add “ultra cube”, vegetable stock cube, to ginger and garlic. Steam all in water and you have healthy “fried rice”.
Note: End of lecture. My husband and I followed this counsel for over 14 years and felt all the better for it! It leaves no room for junk food, fried food, or sugar and has done us a world of good, not only for the cancer, but for a range of other illnesses as well.
The next lecture was by Dr JasonHan about goals and how to achieve them.
Goals – A goal is a statement of your current needs and wants. The needs and the wants can be very different!
Victor Frankl studied 2 groups of concentration camp prisoners. One group survived and the other group died. Why?
The group that survived all had a goal, they talked in great detail about their goal, with great gusto and enthusiasm, and held in their minds a picture of that goal. It was very graphic in their minds. They survived to see the goal fulfilled!
The group that died had not established any goals.
Carl Simonton studied 2 groups under treatment. There was no response to the treatment given to the group who had no goals.
There was a tremendous response to treatment given to the group that had set goals.
The stepping stones to success come with our own perception to look for the silver lining.
The shortest way to achieve goals is in 6 steps:
1)Be clear:
Write down on paper what you want. Wait one week. See if it is clear.
At the end of one more week or a month, check if it is still clear. If you are satisfied, then go for it! The initial step is the most important.
2)Realistic Goals:
Stretch your personal resources a little and it will do something for you. It will spur you on to more goals. Nothing succeeds like success.
Look for when and where to find the results to avoid disappointment.
Small improvements are improvements.
Health goals take time!
3) Prioritise.
Which goals are more urgent?
Health goals take president. Then you can do everything else.
Your health goal will help you to achieve yourcareer goal. Mutually inclusive or mutually exclusive – single goal only. Accomplish one only.
4) Long term, Medium term and Short term:
Anything longer than a year is a long-term goal. Short-term goal is anything under a month.
Long term goals are difficult to sustain the motivation. Make it more achievable by making smaller goals and reach them during the same amount of time.
5)Commitment:
Put your heart and soul into it. Give the goal time, energy and concentration. Intention (not by chance), and attention (focus).
6)Want and belief:
Want it and believe you will do it. It is not a goal if someone else sets it for you. Do what you believe. Only use the methods that you believe in!
The most important condition is in Latin, Sine qua non – meaning, without which not. I think I can changes to, I can!
Note: All the above can be achieved through the logical mind and even more easily through the subconscious mind. The words “I can”, will motivate you to achieve. Where there is a will, there is a way. The will needs to be developed first. The “will” will help you develop the “way“.
The lecture was completed with the song, “Climb every Mountain”, from the Sound of Music”, music tract. This was followed by a “neck rub” session of everyone standing in a row and rubbing the neck of the person in front of them and turning around andreciprocating it to the one who was giving it.
Note: This lecture was preceded by a group therapy session in which we were asked to discuss: What is our greatest fear? We were asked to name five things we wanted to do after we were first diagnosed with cancer. Also name 5 things we wanted to do with our spouseafter we were first diagnosed. This was followed by a relaxation/meditation.
Note: For my “health goals”, my Dr Ivy, suggested I project my Natural Killer (NK’s) cell goal of 350, to, for example, the year 2005. At the time they measured around 183. Then after my husband discovered he had cancer, the NK’s dropped to 138.
This long-term goal made it easier for me to relax about my goal. Having committed to it, I am not worried about it any longer. It took the sting out of it.
Sleep takes place in 90-minute cycles, deep and then light. Melatonin production at 2 AM. is increased. There are 4 levels of Trance States.
Just prior to waking is one of them and is a very good time to give a child positive affirmations, and is very important to make this time very positive for them.
Beta and Alpha States make up a normal relaxation or simple meditation.
Hypnosis means to influence and put in suggestions, the deeper the relaxation the better a suggestion is received.
Suggestion for those desiring to receive hypnosis:
1) Agree beforehand what suggestions will be made.
2) 100% trust and consent is necessary. The conscious mind is bypassed and the subconscious mind listens.
Meditation can be done while waiting for a red traffic light, relax the hands and breathe deeply, and simply relax.
Trance is a waking suggestion. At the time a patient is told that they have cancer, they go into Shock Trance. “Awaking Hypnosis” is what’s told them after the shock of finding out. Post- traumatic shock is the result and the doctor “hypnotizes” the patient.
This can be similar to the Aboriginal ritual of “bone pointing”, where the person being in shock, receives a waking suggestion, the body responds to the waking suggestion, shuts down and dies. If some person came along and told them positive affirmations, the body would change.
Anesthetic is a form of hypnosis. Hypnotic suggestions occur during surgery, during this time of deepest trances, and can seriously affect the outcome of the surgery and the patients desire to live.
If Surgeons really wanted to help increase the survival rate of cancer patients receiving surgery, they should put in positive suggestions during this time. Even cassette tapes taped to the ears of the patient with continuous play of positive input have proven to give patients good recovery after surgery.
There are 3 types of meditation.
1) Passive Meditation, mind and body relaxation.
2) Creative Meditation, visualise a healthy body and make things happen.
3) Insight – not necessary here.
The first 2 are the most important regarding health.
Imagining a white light = healing energy.
After 3 deep breaths train yourself to totally relax.
Choose a regular place and time to meditate and do it daily. You will look forward to it. If possible do it 2 times a day. The task is to relax and be still. Natural Killer cells increase with Meditation.
Even in a very deep meditation you can still hear a cassette tape, so be sure the tape is full of positive affirmations. (Notes recorded in 1999)
Note: Next, we were asked to draw a picture of our family, all members, when we were 5 years old.
Later we were asked to do a meditation to go back to the time we were 5-years- old to try to visualize everyone then and try to understand what happened at that time.
The meditation included us visualizing and feeling the emotion of us holding and cuddling our own 5-year-old child.
Then later we were asked to sketch our present day family, could include in-laws etc.
We then discussed possible childhood influences affecting our health today.
End of Lecture by Dr Ivy Bullen.
Note: I’ll end by saying that I have experienced the trauma and shock of first hearing I had cancer. The first time I heard it, my doctor tried to persuade me to have a mastectomy, arranging it to be performed in 6 days time.
Fortunately, I was able to tell him I needed 6 days to think about it. His response was that most women in my condition, precancerous cells and a family history, wouldn’t even be able to wait 6 days to “have it off”. I never had that surgery, although I did consent to minor surgery.
He also added a pleaful story that if I had been his wife, he would have insisted that I have the mastectomy ASAP. (As soon as possible.)
So, the doctors can have a lot of influence and pressure you, as they are very aware of the hypnotic advantage they have over their patients, after they hear the initial prognosis.
Dr. Ivy told my husband about his cancer, saying, “It seemed like it was, but that she wouldn’t say for certain, until the last test result was in, and anyway this type of cancer was easily cured, so not to worry. Take it one day at a time, one test at a time and see how it goes.” This made it all the easier to bear.
His specialist was not quite as gentle and was quite graphic in regards to the surgery needed and upset me a lot, as I also suffered from the shock. We were able to take it home to pray, and went through with the surgery.
Taking time to listen to the procedure presented and requesting time to process it can be very helpful stress wise, if you were to receive the cancer diagnosis.
Protecting yourself from any negative statements about your particular type of cancer and how advanced or hopeless the diagnosis is may help you make an informed decision on the treatments available.
Resting can be very beneficial with the use of meditation during this strenuous time. Taking time for yourself can also be very beneficial for your family. I was able to use these techniques so I endorse them.
In my experience a diagnosis of cancer can create pressure to choose treatment quickly. It can be quite challenging to think of alternative treatments during the space between the diagnosis and the treatment options.
Requesting a time frame for your life span, after being diagnosed with cancer, may not be the best choice as each person has a different experience. The estimates can often determine the time frame in the patients mind with painful results.
Taking time, meditating and self-educating can help take the sting out of the initial cancer diagnosis, treatment, to become a cancer survivor.
