In a world that can at times seem very cold and self-serving, one of the best gifts you can give some one to brighten their day is hope. When you give some one hope, maybe they will believe in a better future, hold a more positive outlook, or feel a renewal of life.
As a trainer/counselor/author, I am always looking for ways to provide hope for others.
At the same time, while hope is a wonderful word in our language, there is another word that is very scary – cancer. To a certain degree, virtually everyone may be affected directly or indirectly by cancer; perhaps by battling it onself, or by witnessing cancer take hold of a family member, relative, friend, co-worker, or loved one.
The word cancer can elicit feelings of despair and many times initiates change and inner reflection. No matter how it affects us, it seems to touch us deeply and remind us of the value and importance of the most precious gift we call life.
After learning about the American Cancer Society’s Relay for Life events several years ago, I decided I wanted to be involved in the cause to promote a healthy life, but not by walking in a relay. Instead, by providing free information about nutritional strategies to various Livestrong groups such as one in Wallingford, CT. I offered the free lectures called ‘Food for Thought’ to cancer survivors at various health clubs in Connecticut. The free lectures connected me with many cancer survivors and gave me a chance to be in touch with their stories. I learned a lot from these groups and really appreciated the experiences. The groups also appreciated my sharing of the presentation and receiving of the free Real Food Therapy Guide.
While the book I wrote (with lots of support for my wife, friends, and clients who deserve much of the credit) contains many real food strategies to cope with cancer and alleviate many other health concerns, I recently learned of something proven to cure cancer. In fact, there were over 50 documented cases by the doctor who discovered a cure for cancer in 1928, Dr Max Gerson.
My wife and I stumbled upon this information while watching a netflix movie, The Beautiful Truth. After watching the movie and being emotionally affect by it, I continued to research the doctor’s work in an attempt to spread the news.
The first thing I discovered is that you can watch the movie for free on-line.
The next thing I discovered is that the food list is also free.
And, if you have more questions, you can visit the Gerson Institute.
In closing, I’d like to quote Helen Keller, “Optimism is the faith that leads to achievement. Nothing can be done without hope and confidence.”
