For those who truly want success and happiness, this is the best book available. It offers A to Z practical advice on how you can improve the quality of your life each and every day.
Five years ago I was diagnosed with leukaemia. I felt isolated and overwhelmed. Like other cancer patients what I needed most was to find peace of mind and meaning in what life I had remaining. Cancer is like a flame that melts and purifies you. It touches you deeply and compels you to look for reasons deep inside yourself. You look and look until ultimately, in a moment of humility, you gain a clear vision of life's illusions and you see the truth: all things change, nothing is permanent, even your life. In essence, cancer teaches you to make peace with your imperfections and with all that is unknown. My life experience as a physician and, now, as a patient, has taught me that cancer affects the body and the mind. With proper treatment, the body recovers first. The mind, however, particularly the Ego, needs time to get well and overcome the negative emotions such as fear, depression and a sense of the loss of one's wholeness, which linger for a long time. If you see yourself through the eyes of your mind, your imperfection and mortality make the acceptance of cancer very difficult. You, like me, need inner peace. You, like me, will find that the domain of spiritual healing lies within your heart. It is your heart that animates your being. In your heart you connect with the Divine. This book offers to you a pathway to healing in a step-by-step approach: through the body, the mind and the spirit. I share my experience as a patient and what I have learned, with insights and exercises that provide practical help in time of need.
