Cancer belongs to the category of clubs you'd never want to be a member of, and when you're forced to join against your will, it's hard to be there. I should know because I'm a member.
Having cancer involves a whole lot more than the terror of a life-threatening illness and the often torturous treatment that makes you sicker than the disease. It damages your self-worth and self-esteem, can cause extreme depression and PTSD, ends jobs and relationships; in short, it effects your life in a catastrophic way.
Larry LeShan treated terminally ill cancer patients for 40 years and determined almost immediately that the standard therapeutic model--what's wrong with this patient and how can we fix it--was not working. He developed a new approach by saying, what's right with this person and how can we bring more of that into her life? Not surprisingly, many of these patients improved and some became miracles by recovering completely.
He noticed that there was a common denominator among these people: that each of them had a passion that had gone unexpressed. By guiding them to express their passion, for example, to learn, finally, how to play piano, they often improved.
The mind-body connection is a well-accepted fact today. The state of one's mental, emotional, and spiritual health influences how well or poorly the immune system functions. Depression leads to all kinds of physical illness, including cancer, because it severely depresses immune system functioning, just like the continual expression of rage elevates blood pressure and over time, damages the heart.
In no way does Larry LeShan believe that a person is responsible for creating his or her dis-ease; in fact, he chides those who would suggest that.
