"I had the biggest test ever this week - and I did it! The fear is gone." - KB (Jersey)
The Circle of Balance is a free six week survival programme for those living with cancer.
It is designed for those people who are facing this most life-changing of illnesses. In the programme I teach patients how to use the power of their minds to control discomfort, elevate mood and directly participate in their own healing process. By following a mutually agreed plan the patient can improve the overall quality of their lives and hopefully promote positive improvement in their medical condition.
Based on the finding that state of mind has a significant effect on medical outcome, people who are engaged in healthy-minded living will normally do better medically, even if they have a life-changing illness.
In my free Thursday Clinic, I work with the patient in order to expand the following areas:
"Cancer has changed my life, but that does not mean my life has changed for the worse. I will decide how my life has been changed.
While there may be moments of uncertainty, there will always be reasons for hope.
I am the most important member of my healthcare team. The more active and curious I am about my treatment the better my outlook will be.
I have the power to make a difference in my treatment and care.
Physical healing is not the only goal of my treatment. I can also use this time to heal my spirit, relationships and my heart."
