Product Description Learning to live beyond cancer… from the inside out! Cancer as a Love Story is the courageous journey of a wellness pioneer who used the latest in neuroscience and “energy as medicine” to regain her health after a devastating prognosis of breast cancer in 2012. Through her recovery, she teaches readers about one of the most overlooked parts of healing: the emotional process of releasing toxins and internal stressors that contribute to the development of disease. With heart, vulnerability, and wisdom, the author inspires us to live beyond cancer. She provides an in-depth overview of the four components of health: physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual. Cancer as a Love Story is full of “hidden jewels” and an insider’s look at the latest healing approaches which complement conventional medicine. Review "Spoiler alert: Cancer as a Love Story is not just for people affected by cancer. Author Gail Kauranen Jones, a five-year survivor of breast cancer, takes on the center failure of western medicine: the role of emotions in health and disease. Her heartfelt, brutally honest story takes the reader through her amazing journey of building new brain connections to enable healing through connection to community, nature, and the divine. Her transformed mindset is focused on new possibilities and self-affirmation. The book offers an abundance of tools, tips, resources, and lessons learned from both western and alternative approaches. Gail points the way forward for anyone interested in a new American dream: life, liberty and the pursuit of neuroplasticity." ~Phyllis Strupp, brain training expert and award-winning author of The Richest of Fare and Better with Age: The Ultimate Guide to Brain Training. " Cancer as a Love Story contains a wealth of treasures for people wanting to explore the full spectrum of their healing options after a cancer diagnosis. Gail Kauranen Jones shares straight-up her first-had experiences with modalities from conventional to the fringe, just as a friend might tell you about the good, the bad and the ugly of her experience. Even more important, she delves into who we need to become in order to allow sustained healing to occur. Curl up with a cup of hot tea and dive in!" ~Dr. Shani Fox, ND, Healing and Hope for Cancer Survivors, drshanifox.com "A high-five to Gail Kauranen Jones for giving us the powerfully compelling chronicle of a wake-up call. She tells like it is, without pulling her punches, and simultaneously makes it supremely informative, jams-packed with usable links and leads. With grace and grit, she has used her illness for what all illnesses were designed for--to get our attention and reorient us--encouraging us to embrace not only the habits of optimal health, but perhaps the much harder human work of falling back in love with ourselves." --Gregg Levoy, author of Callings: Finding and Following an Authentic Life and Vital Signs: The Nature and Nurture of Passion. " Cancer as a Love Story is a very compassionate and educational book in which Gail Kauranen Jones provides the right combination of medical information and options for personal actions and techniques, all in nontechnical terms, and easily readable language. Not to be missed are the 'tips' that she offers throughout the book. Her book is a 'must read' for anyone with cancer, anyone who has a family member or a friend with cancer, and for healthcare providers. It will change their lives. Any reader will be inspired." --Dr. Ann Webster, health psychologist, professor and former director of The Mind Body for Program for Cancer at Massachusetts General Hospital. "For too long breast cancer has been considered primarily 'a women's issue.' Gail's story will inspire both men and women--especially men who dearly love a woman dealing with the tragic impact of hearing these four life-shattering words: ' You have breast cancer.'" --David Bradshaw, publisher, myideafa
