[cancercured] Re: Cancer is not a Disease - It's a Survival Mechanism

Well, I have yet to meet a person who does not have some of the same issues as described below! And though I am aware that negative thinking is bad for health generally, it seems to me that the way this is being described below puts the blame on the person with the cancer. Not very helpful. It probably comes from that same idiotic line of thinking used by the German doctor listed on Mercola's site who explains the occurrence of autism in a child by the mother feeling depressed during pregnancy or some other crap.

So, I guess my dog who died young of cancer had a lot of deep emotional trauma, probably stemming from her puppyhood. I never knew she had a negative self-image but as she died at the age of 5 of cancer....well, it just goes to show that the outward wagging of the tail cannot hide the depressed doggy within.

I have no doubt that a positive outlook is important to our general well-being, but you cannot ward off cancer by holding a good thought.

Book Excerpt:
> After having seen thousands of cancer patients over a period of three decades, I began to recognize a certain pattern of thinking, believing and feeling that was common to most of them. To be more specific, I have yet to meet a cancer patient who does not feel burdened by some poor self-image, unresolved conflict and worries, or
past emotional trauma that still lingers in his/her subconscious. Cancer, the physical disease, cannot occur unless there is a strong undercurrent of emotional uneasiness and deep-seated frustration.
> Cancer patients typically suffer from lack of self-respect or
> worthiness, and often have what I call an "unfinished business" in their life......
