We recently got this over-the-top enthusing over our Cancer imagery, showing how supportive a simple technique like guided imagery can be for reducing passive helplessness and giving some control back …,
 
This is the most wonderful CD ever. I was diagnosed with breast cancer right after my lovely daughter graduated from college. What a week of extreme joy, to the depths of despair!

Being a type A personality, I felt the need to 'help' myself through the cancer process.  Never mind the surgery, chemotherapy and radiation. I would listen to the guided meditation a couple of times a day. Then I would listen to the positive affirmations. I believe strongly that the mind is one of our most powerful organs.

So I let the doctors do their part, and I did mine, through prayer and listening daily to this CD. I would encourage all cancer patients to try to incorporate this into their routine for getting well.  We do need to Fight Cancer, and I am thankful for this CD. I would listen to anything Belleruth has to say....I loved it that much.

I agree whole heartedly! I, too, was diagnosed with breast cancer in March of this year, have had a mastectomy, gone thru chemo and then a friend told me about these wonderful CDs. I got the Cancer one, as well as the Immune and the Radiation one, just before beginning my radiation treatments. I listen to them when I go to bed at night. Although I have had a positive attitude thru this, it seems nighttime is when my mind likes to kick into high gear with the negative "what ifs!" The affirmations are wonderful, and I really needed them! These CDs will see me thru these treatments and beyond. I plan on continuing to listen to them even when I am done... Thank you, Belleruth!

I too used the c.d. when I had surgery two years ago for breast cancer. I found it to be very helpful in calming my fears prior to the surgery and giving me assurances that I could beat the cancer. I have sung its praises and recommended it to others. But recently I had an interesting "revelation." After my surgery and radiation I had what I would describe as PTSD symptoms which have continued through the two years. They were so much larger and unmanageable from when I had my first cancer surgery five years previous to this surgery I was taken aback. I couldn't understand my strong reactions but chalked up my experiences to the fact it was the second "big surprise" in my life. But when I was recently meditating during breast cancer awareness month which I hate, I felt like what had happened was that my doctor whom I dearly love and respect highly was so concerned about another one of his patients during my surgery that I picked up on his fear and so felt "doomed." This explanation helps me to understand many of my symptoms. Now that I can separate the two; my unconscious fears and my doctor's verbally positive prognosis I do not have these same uncontrollable symptoms. I was wondering if anyone else had a similar experience or if they are careful to tell their doctor that even under anesthesia patients can pick up on the doctor's words or energy. I suspect that listening to the c.d. during surgery made me even more vulnerable. What do you think?
