Cancer cures

image

There is so much information available about the fight to beat cancer.

I recently had two friends succumb to cancer. They put up a strong fight, they had all the standard treatments, they both had received the ‘all clear’, but both died within 3 months of being given that all clear.

I have to ask myself ‘why’?  They were both fit and healthy, living active lives before the initial cancer diagnosis, and during the 18 months they lived from that primary diagnosis, their quality of life was somewhat diminished.

One in particular verbalised that he would not have had all the surgery and treatment, if he had of known, the cancer would get him in such a short time frame anyway.  He would have enjoyed the last 18 months of his life, rather than being torturd by the treatments, until death pounced on him.

I have decided to look at alternative treatments and offer here, what information I find, so that you can research for yourself and make an informed decision, if your life is ever touched by cancer.

Looking for something to do on a rainy Sunday?

Curled up in front of my fire, with the gentle rain droplets creeping down the outside of the window…. I have the opportunity to finally look through the pages I have added to my reading list lately…

Here are some of the funny, insightful things I’ve discovered!

For a laugh

For consideration

For lunch, with a little potato mash and greens

Name 5 people who have impacted your life…..

I witnessed a profound personal interaction the other day, and I would like to share it with you now. (Names and minor details have been changed to protect those involved)

I was sitting at a local Cafe in a small village, enjoying the wonderful aroma and taste of my morning coffee, when I overheard a conversation at the next table.

A beautiful young woman (Susie) had approached the middle aged couple who sat at the next table, and she was telling the gentleman who she was and how she knew him.

It became apparent as the conversation unfolded, that the gentleman had been the tennis partner in a local competition over 10 years ago, of Susie’s younger sister (Jenny).  At that time Jenny was approximately 16 years old.  This was a small community and the tennis competition was a gathering place for young and old.

The middle aged gentlemen said that he remembered Jenny as they had played Doubles together for a few seasons.  Susie was sharing, how well Jenny was now doing with her life, and how the gentleman was instrumental in that success.  Apparently Jenny was troubled at 16, to such a degree that she had started acts of ‘self harm’ by cutting herself.  But the gentle acceptance, patience and inclusion demonstrated by her tennis partner had led Jenny to accept, be patient and inclusive of herself.

The middle aged gentleman had no idea how troubled Jenny had been, nor how he impacted her life.  Susie thanked him and walked away, as tears filled the gentlemans eyes.

This encounter reminded me of a great book – The Five_People_You_Meet_in_Heaven, by Mitch Albom.

It is a great read, that starts you thinking who has impacted your life.

AND, that you never know who may be affected by your attitude and behaviour….nor how profound that affect may be.

Sydney rock fishing - getting ready

Sydney rock fishing – getting ready

So true – very insightful

Sometimes you are unsatisfied with your life, while people in this world are dreaming of living your life…

A child on a farm sees a plane fly overhead & dreams of flying.  But, a pilot on the plane sees the farmhouse & dreams of returning home.

That’s life! Enjoy yours …. if wealth is the secret to happiness, then the rich should be dancing on the streets.  But only poor kids do that.

If power ensures security, then officials should walk unguarded.  But those who live simply, sleep soundly.

If beauty & fame bring ideal relationships, then celebrities should have the best marriages.

Live simply, walk humbly & love genuinely… All good will come back to you…

Mother in laws

But seriously…. There is a battle ground that exists around mother in laws.

There are many reason why this might be the case, but trying to find plausible reasons, excuses and explanations doesnt really help.

I have had a number of clients lately who have verbalised a troublesome situation with mother in laws.

So how do we help them? Both the mother in laws and the people affected by them?

A support forum, would be a good place to start.

Most young brides for example believe they are the only ones with this issue.  I believe we need to share our stories and advice, with love, peace and harmony in our heart, so that these young people can find a win-win resolution to their issues …. And failing that, at least a way to cope with something that they can’t change.  Ultimately though, they will know that they are not alone.

Please share your stories here, anonymously if desired, to lend a helping hand to struggling young brides and grooms.

P.S BTW, I am a mother in law ????

Weight loss, without dieting

So many people are confused by the many many different suggestions to lose weight.

But has anyone suggested that your body will naturally know what food it needs and when it needs it? Your body will also tell you when it is full.

Why not learn to listen to your body and learn to understand the difference between emotional hunger and physical hunger?

Geneen Roth wrote a book many years ago, which explained that concept to me very well. I try to live that way and when I am successful, my weight stabilises and I am comfortable in my skin.  When I am not so successful, I begin to feel bloated and uncomfortable…. All new skills take a bit of learning, so I don’t beat myself up, if I get it wrong every now and then.

Here is a link to a short audio, which outlines the concept in a matter of minutes. If this link does not work for you, please email me at lonewolfharmony@gmail.com and I will email you the link.

Here is an outline of Geneen’s book.  Feel free to check it out, both here and other online places.  She has lots of interesting interviews online and other resources.
