A Mind-Body Approach to Healing

If you have received a cancer diagnosis, you know that the hundreds of questions and concerns you have about what's to come can be as stressful as the cancer treatment itself. But research shows that if you mentally prepare yourself to handle cancer treatment by getting stress and anxiety under control, you can improve your quality of life and become an active participant in your own recovery.

Created by leading psychologists specializing in oncology, the Mindfulness-Based Cancer Recovery program is based on mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR), a therapeutic combination of mindfulness meditation and gentle yoga now offered to cancer survivors and their loved ones in hundreds of medical centers, hospitals, and clinics worldwide. Let this book be your guide as you let go of fear and focus on getting well.

With this eight-week program, you'll learn to • Use proven MBSR skills during your treatment and recovery
• Boost your immune function through meditation and healing yoga
• Calm feelings of fear, uncertainty, and lack of control
• Mindfully manage difficult symptoms and side effects
• Discover your own capacity for healing and thriving after adversity

• I found this book through our local cancer center, and after looking at it several times, I bought it. The step by step program helps you learn to focus on all the good things around you during a very difficult time. It helps to refocus your mind to the beauty in this world and encourages you to be mindful of it. Now over the treatment phase, I am still trying to live "in the moment" and enjoy my life through enjoyment of the moment. I think this is a great resource for ANYONE going through a difficult time.
• This book presents mindfulness as a method of psychotherapy in a simple and easy way to understand. Go step by step and includes the perspective of cancer patient and / or family. I recommend it for anyone who is going through cancer disease, family members and psychologists. Excellent book!
• This book is a wonderful combination of practical and inspirational advice for those that live with a cancer diagnosis and find mindfulness of great help. It's approach, realistic but encouraging, and it's clarity when it describes the different types of meditations, makes us, cancer patients, feel reassured and accompanied. A book to read and keep!
• Good review of the literature relating to cancer and psychosocial interventions.
  Practical guide to practice of mindfulness while living with a diagnosis of cancer. I found it useful as a cancer survivor.

• This is a wonderful resource!
• Inspires a lot of hope and helps with negative feelings, that only impede recovery. I highly recommend this book for Cancer patients and caregivers
• Excellent
• The problem with the mindfulness approach is that it fails to address the underlying cause of the problem. Sitting there like the meme of the dog in front of a house burning down and saying "It's fine" only goes so far. Better would be to put out the fire in the house. Mindfulness can come an awful lot like victim blaming - the reason you are depressed or struggling is because of YOUR THOUGHTS - never mind that for example in the instance of cancer there is medical literature that suggests that the chemo drugs can do physical damage to the brain and that chemo brain is a very real thing. Would I recommend the mindfulness approach? Sure. As step one one the path of recovery. As THE SOLUTION to recover - never.
