"If you put a spoonful of salt
in a cup of water
it tastes very salty.
If you put a spoonful of salt
in a lake of fresh water
the taste is still pure and clear.

Peace comes when our hearts are
open like the sky, vast as the ocean."

- Jack Kornfield

Healing Cancer with Your Mind

7 Strategies to Help YOU Survive

Authored by Jerome Freedman, Ph. D.

Foreword by Dr. Martin Rossman, MD.

Healing Cancer with Your Mind: 7 Strategies to Help YOU Survive reveals the personal power that you possess for self-healing. Learning and applying the 7 strategies discussed in this book will guide you on a journey to spiritual and physical healing. Whether you are a cancer patient yourself or supporting someone who is, this book should be an essential element in your treatment and healing arsenal.  Even if you are well and want to see strategies to prevent cancer, this book is for you.

Healing Cancer with Your Mind guides you and your family through the difficult times of a cancer diagnosis. The Seven Strategies to Help YOU Survive will help you and your loved ones to

  • Get inspired to take charge of your medical treatment, be involved with and be truthfully informed by your doctors, oncologists, and surgeons.
  • Investigate which alternative and complementary medical practices can benefit you and your situation.
  • Discover the lifestyle changes you may want to make to better you healing chances.
  • Learn how meditation practices can help you make responsible decisions for your care and feel confident that you made the right decision and much more.
  • Rely on your family and friends to get things done for you that you can’t do for yourself.
  • Build a medical team of physicians and other practitioners that you can trust.
  • Give back to your community when you are ready and able.

From the Foreword:

“As a physician who has practiced holistic medicine, now called Integrative Medicine, for over 4 decades, I can attest to the value of the strategies that Dr. Freedman recommends including in your treatment program.” —Martin Rossman, MD, author of The Worry Solution and Guided Imagery for Self-Healing

Here is what Dr. Kelly Turner, PhD has to say about Healing Cancer with YOUR Mind:

“Dr. Freedman speaks from experience, both as a cancer survivor himself, and the father of a Radical Remission cancer survivor. His book, “Healing Cancer with Your Mind” gives readers a nurturing, helping hand throughout the entire cancer journey, especially with regard to developing a meditation practice. –Kelly Turner, PhD, Author of the NYTimes Bestseller “Radical Remission: Surviving Cancer Against All Odds”

One of his main healers was the Isadora Duncan Award winner and innovative dance performer and teacher, Anna Halprin:

“I am a cancer survivor, so what I have to share comes from personal experience. Cancer  is like enlightenment at gunpoint. One must face it and do something. The 7 Strategies … provides us with realistic and practical modalities that give us strength to face the challenges of cancer and hope to survive. This is a must read book for anyone facing cancer or their caretaker.” —Anna Halprin, PhD, dance pioneer, author, choreographer, and winner of the Isadora Duncan award and many others.

A seminar participant had this to say:

“As a nutritionist and naturopath, I was drawn to the event because I found it fascinating that mindfulness could heal cancer. Originally thinking I would only stay a few minutes for the event, I not only stayed the whole time, but learned so much from Jerome and the 7 strategies. Jerome is such an amazing person who has contributed so much and the mindfulness meditation sessions during the event and discussion amongst the attendees was dynamic to say the least. I believe Jerome’s testimony and book gives people power. Power that they can overcome the biggest of odds. Power that there are alternatives to just chemotherapy, and power that by becoming one’s own health advocate through meditation, nutrition, and lifestyle change, healing is in our hands.” –Immanuel Lewis, an elite holistic and naturopathic nutritionist practicing in Santa Monica.
