Mind, Body and Soul is the first comprehensive
cancer guide to provide practical patient advice within a “whole
person” context. As the name implies, the book offers essential
information concerning a broad spectrum of topics - from treatment
and medication to soul-serving discussions of philosophical, spiritual
and emotional issues.
Beginning from the moment of diagnosis, Mind, Body and Soul
gently takes the reader through the cancer process, with a primary
focus on patient empowerment via education and understanding.
Unique in both structure and content, Mind, Body and Soul
blazes new trails in the cancer, self-help genre. Practical
information regarding treatments, pain management, home care and
medication is provided in an easy-to-understand fashion, effectively
enabling the patient to take an active role in their own care.
The often neglected subject of stress reduction and relaxation
techniques is also discussed in detail. The apathy and indifference
patients often encounter is examined, and countered with indispensable
tips to overcome this reality and enhance both the level and nature
of care received.
Unlike any book of its kind, Mind, Body and Soul
explores cancer through a distinctly personal, human approach.
Inspirational, philosophical discussion is featured amidst powerful
personal and patient anecdotes. Inevitably, the reader is
moved to a higher level of understanding of the multi-dimensional
facets of both living with, and fighting against, a cancer diagnosis.
Steering patients through a forest of confusion and despair, the
book culminates with an affirmation of the power of the human
spirit, and a celebration of the inherent majesty of life.
Mind, Body, and Soul is written for cancer patients, their families
and friends, and anyone interested in holistic approaches to modern
medical care.
“…you must possess an awesome understanding of cancer patients,
concerns, and treatment, AND possess a giant of a heart to have
written such a beautiful book. I'm positive that not only people
with cancer, but those who love them and treat them will be helped
immeasurably by your powerful book.”
- Ann Jillian, Emmy & Golden Globe Award winning actress and
singer
