Health & Healing

Health is the free flow of energy through the body and can be achieved through an ever evolving mind, body, spirit balance or equilibrium.

Your body has incredible untapped potential to heal, that potential lies in a place of peace, deep inside you. It is always there, always accessible. Silence unlocks the body's innate capacity to heal and helps you move towards greater inner peace, guidance and well-being.

Power to Change Interview

I recently wrote a chapter in a book called Power to Change.  It includes my chapter - 5 P's to Making Life Enhancing Changes as well as chapters from 18 other experts in various modalities of creating change. 

In addition to outlining how to facilitate change, I answer the question - 'why do people often wait until they have a life-threatening diagnosis, like cancer, to make life-enhancing changes?'. The 5 P's are: Pain, Power, Permission, Passion and Purpose.  Please use this link to listen to my interview: http://www.thepowertochangetelesummit.com/audioseries.htm

Can Stress contribute to Cancer?

Last night I listened to a live interview with Dr. Paul Epstein, a naturopathic doctor and leading voice in the field of Mind-Body Integrative Medicine. He is a big proponent of treating the whole person and feels that treating the emotional side of the cancer question is just as important as treating the physical side.  The interview addresses the question of the relationship between stress, and even early childhood stress, and trauma and cancer.  He sites some new research findings that are very interesting and even surprising. He talks about some recent studies on the beneficial effects of meditation on the immune system as well.

Dr. Paul EpsteinHe also addresses the question of feeling guilty if you feel stress could have contributed to your cancer and how you can deal with those issues.  Dr. Epstein is a passionate speaker and uses lots of great analogies to get his message across.  One thing he said really stuck with me.  He said that time does not heal all wounds but rather time can help conceal wounds.  So where does the pain go?  It stays in the body and can wreck havoc without your even realizing it.

I really hope that you will take the time to listen to the interview and challenge yourself in terms of taking a holistic approach to healing.  Sometimes this means having the courage to dig up some past issues or deal with current struggles you may be silently facing. Here is the link to listen.

I would also love to hear your comments and as always, I remain available to support you in any way I can on your healing journey.
