8. Reduce stress levels as much as possible. It is a known fact that high stress levels increase the growth rate of cancer and also increase the spread of cancer. High stress levels are a major risk factor for cancer. Decreasing anxiety and anger would be part of this process. When I am in a stressful situation, I ask myself, “In a year, will this really matter?” I would say no to things that I don’t want to do or don’t have time or energy for.
9. Forgive. Forgiveness is perhaps the most impor- tant act when it comes to helping cure cancer. There are many books that talk not only about the power of forgiveness, but also the negative power of not forgiving those who you feel have wronged you. Hanging onto those thoughts and emotions can be detrimental to your health.
10. Have hope. Have hope. I would look at all of the things above that I am doing and know that I can cure myself of cancer. I would remind myself daily that people have been doing it for years. I would know that all cancers are treat- able and I would read survivor stories. I would have hope in the human body’s ability to heal itself. I am still alive and I am taking action daily towards a healthier me, and that would give me hope. Health comes from positive lifestyle choices – eating right, moving right and think- ing right – and I am making lifestyle choices to return my body to health, the ultimate goal. I would know that I am taking responsibility for my own health.
These are ten steps that you can take today to
improve the strength of your body to deal with any health issue you may encounter. Remember that the past does not equal the future. Just because you have cancer now does not mean you will have cancer next month, or even next year. You are still here, and you are a survivor already!
