Flax Oil as a True Aid against Arthritis, Heart Infarction and Cancer

The Budwig protocol is one I found to be very helpful and my body felt as if it was being really nourished. 

If the Budwig protocol is for you then this is a fascinating read about flax seed oil. 

Earthing

by Clinton Ober

The first time I tried an earthing mat my surgical scar started tingling and so did my feet. It lasted for several hours after I got off it.  Since then, with regular use, my scar has been getting fainter and we have been enjoying more restful sleep and experience more energy. It also protects me from electromagnetic pollution while I'm working at the computer.

This book is a joy to read and so compelling that you have to give it a try, even if it's just walking in the garden without your shoes on. It's such a simple concept and makes so much sense. 

Dragon and Tiger Qigong

This form of Qigong is taught to people with cancer in China as it is thought to boost the immune system.

You can learn the form from this book and his companion volume but why not seek out an instructor near you to teach it to you.

Meditations for Enhancing Your Immune System

by Bernie Siegel

On this compact disc, Dr. Bernie Siegel guides you through two individual and empowering meditations, each a combination of guided imagery and auto-hypnosis. These inspiring inner journeys are designed to assist you in dealing with negative thoughts, past hurts, stress, grief, and other conditions that can contribute to your lack of well-being. Bernie's calm, resonant voice gently helps you experience your own unique qualities, as well as your inner and outer beauty. 

Healing Meditation

by Kelley Howell

This is used in cancer clinics to boost the immune system, speed up the healing process and generate a state of wellbeing: something we could all do with.

The experience is brilliant. It uses binaural beat technology to gently move you into a state of profound meditation, even if you've never mediated before. The guided visualisation takes you to a place where you can feel yourself getting healthier. It restores peace of mind, hope and an enthusiasm for the future.

You know when you've been told you've got cancer the future becomes a place you don't want to think about but this meditation gives you an optimism for it and you begin to look forward to it with a sense of anticipation. 

Deep Meditation

by Kelly Howell

When you have cancer you have to make some pretty tough decisions and often your clarity is not as good as it can be because of the stress you are going through.

In the late 1980's I was very interested in brain development and enhancement and Kelly Howell produced a fantastic audio program using advanced binaural beat technology for getting the two hemispheres of the brain working together.  It was called High Coherence and it remains one of my favourite meditation tools.

You can still get it but it is now known by a different title, Deep Meditation.  Bring the full power of your brain to those difficult decisions you have to make. 

Free Meditations

by Kelley Howell

Kelley is giving away four free meditations so that you can try before you buy.

Allyn's Tip

I use the first free meditation, Relax and Regenerate, before the Healing Meditation.  It's a great 8 minute relaxation so that I can get straight into the Healing Meditation and get even more from it.

This is a very inspiring film.  In 2003 Kris Carr was diagnosed with an untreatable, incurable stage 4 cancer.  The film documents her coming to terms with the diagnosis and how she finds a way to not only survive with the cancer but to thrive with the cancer.

The Essiac Handbook

by James Percival

I had known about Essiac Tea for many years before my diagnosis.  I checked out the ingredients with a couple of herbalist friends and they assured me that the herbs in Essiac Tea certainly had the potential to strengthen and tone my system while at the same time helping my liver to detoxify my body,  I tried some, and really felt that it was doing just that.  Read the handbook and decide for yourself if you want to try it. 

You can get Essiac Tea from various sources on-line.  I got mine from Natural Heritage Enterprises as I was impressed by the standards of their organic production.

Eliminate Cancer's Favourite Building Block from Your Diet

by Ty Bollinger

Cancers get their fuel by fermentation.  They need sugar to do this.  If you cut sugar out of your diet then it starves the cancer cells.  This is one of the first things you should be doing if you want swing the balance in your favour.

Ty Bollinger runs the "The Truth About Cancer" website and he has written this guide to sugar and cancer.  I have added an other brief article called "Sugar the White Death" by way of an introduction, also by Ty.

"All degenerative diseases are signs or signals of something else that disturbs our internal and external environment.  Cancer for example is the survival mechanism of your body trying to survive in a hostile environment.

"At truly heal we have developed a systematic approach to uncover all internal and external causes that can lead to disease followed by a systematic approach to mend each cause in turn."
