Dancing with Cancer by Judith Erel
'The wisdom and knowledge that Judy has learned from her experience with cancer can be our guide and coach.' - Bernie Siegel MD, Author of Love, Medicine & Miracles and The Art of Healing This extraordinary book is for anyone whose life has been touched by cancer, whether as a patient or as someone who supports cancer patients either personally or professionally. Author Judy Erel’s brave account of her own journey, which began with the diagnosis of incurable bone marrow cancer, offers helpful, friendly guidance for every cancer challenge, from diagnosis through radiation, chemotherapy, surgery and a bone marrow transplant to remission and beyond. Throughout the book are detailed instructions for her Thought Work – practical exercises designed to create a positive, proactive mindset that maximizes recovery potential and supports conventional cancer treatment. Alongside these exercises, which include journaling, mandala creation, setting healing intentions, mindful breathing and guided meditations, Judy offers her own transformative artworks with the reminder that any creative self-expression can be healing. You absolutely do not have to be artistic to benefit from her methods as it is not the outcome but the actual physical process of doing that matters, ultimately empowering and transforming both mind and body.
"Judy Erel has a survivor personality and shares her experience with usI have learned from my patients that self-induced healing is not a lucky spontaneous event. It takes courage and the willingness to change yourself and your life so your body gets the message. The wisdom and knowledge that she has learned from her experience with cancer can be our guide and coach. I could write a book just pointing out the wisdom she shares with us. She has learned what healing your life and body is about versus waging a war against cancer. She guides us and shows us the path to healing and how to awaken our body to the joy of life and understand the value and wisdom of our consciousness." --Bernie Siegel MD, Author of Love, Medicine and Miracles and The Art of Healing
