<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/cirque-du-pablo/2892852188/" title="Reiki for Arjuna by ♣ ℓ u m i è r e ♣, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3115/2892852188_033615ec69.jpg" width="443" height="500" alt="Reiki for Arjuna"></a></p>
<p>Cancer is life threatening, however the cancer therapies that are meant to fight cancer can themselves be very debilitating – causing weakness and exhaustion, extreme nausea, hair loss and many other problems, and even, ironically increasing the risk of cancer. Because of these reasons many people turn to alternative treatments for cancer; which use approaches other than or in addition to chemotherapy and radiation to defeat the cancer.</p>
<p>There are many <strong>alternative treatments that help fight cancer</strong>, such as homeopathy, that uses very dilute medications to fight any kind of ailment, including cancer. There are herbal formulations and naturopathic treatments that can also help people detox; by being used internally as well as externally.</p>
<p>Biological therapies that use antineoplastons help to stimulate the immune system of the body so that the body is better able to fight against its cancer. Additionally nutritional therapies can also be used to fight cancer.</p>
<p><strong>Mind Body Treatments for Cancer</strong> can include many different approaches. Aroma therapy can help a person fight cancer indirectly by helping to reduce stress and improving quality of life as well as overall wellbeing. Self hypnosis methods seek to harness the incredible power of the mind to try and defeat the disease of cancer – clinical studies have demonstrated how anxiety and pain can be reduced by use of hypnosis, which can also help improve sleep quality. Similarly spiritual approaches that use meditation can also be effectively used to help a person overcome their apprehensions and fight their disease.</p>
<p><strong>Yoga can help cancer patients</strong> in more than one way – Yoga not only helps a person develop a stronger, fitter body, it can also stimulate the immune system of the body, enabling the body to fight better against the cancer. One study examined the effect of yoga on women recovering from breast cancer. It was found that those who did yoga had an improved quality of life, they slept better, had more energy and better recovery rates.</p>
<p>Similarly quality of life can also improve with alternative therapies such as <a href="http://www.altmedicinezone.com/alternative-medicine/alternative-medicine-improves-quality-of-life-for-cancer-patients/" target="_blank">massage for cancer patients</a>. Mainstream cancer treatments can cause fatigue, pain, loss of appetite, nausea and so on. However an Australian study observed that those who received massage therapies found a significant improvement in these areas. </p>
<p>Similarly<strong> Reiki can also help reduce side effects of cancer treatment</strong> and help improve quality of life for cancer patients. As Reiki helps relax the mind, this seems to have a beneficial impact upon the body as well. It is also hypothesized that a bond can develop between the persons giving and receiving Reiki and this can also be beneficial. </p>
<p>Increasingly researchers are finding more and more elements in nature that help to combat cancer. A study conducted in New Zealand found that natural things such as extracts from totara and manuka trees and <strong>broccoli juice can help prevent skin cancer and sunburn</strong>. An antioxidant called sulforaphane was seen to be present in broccoli, which had this beneficial effect. </p>
<p>A Californian study was able to demonstrate that <strong>pomegranate juice could help fight prostate cancer</strong>; that it could inhibit movement of the cancerous cells and also limit the spread of the cancer to the bones and so on.<br />

<p>By providing FDA alerts and information about prescription and over the counter medications, we can ensure an environment where patients have the best knowledge on their medical treatment and health. Additional information about drugs and <a href="http://www.drugwatch.com/">drug side effects</a> may be found on DrugWatch.com.</p>
<p>&#8211;</p>
<p>According to the San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium, a study published on December 9 discovered that women may be placed at a higher risk for cardiovascular events in post-a menopausal stage due to some breast cancer medications.</p>
<p>Results from the study showed that long-term use of aromatase inhibitors, or drugs commonly-prescribed to treat breast cancer, may increase the risk of heart attack, angina and heart failure in women by 26 percent. The study compared the use of aromatase inhibitors to tamoxifen, a breast cancer medication with a low risk of heart complications.</p>
<p>Aromatase inhibitors, such as Aromasin, Arimidex and Femara, block the body’s production of estrogen, a hormone that fuels the growth of some cancers.</p>
<p>Researchers also considered patients’ absolute risk, or the individual risk that a person will develop the disease over time, as some relative statistics may be misleading. The absolute risk that patients would develop heart disease was 1 percent, but patients with pre-existing risk factors for heart disease had a 7 percent risk.</p>
<p>Dr. Eitan Amir, senior fellow at Princess Margaret Hospital in Toronto, recommended that patients with heart disease change their medication or avoid taking aromatase inhibitors for a long period of time, or approximately three years.</p>
<p>&#8220;It appears that aromatase inhibitors have a significant increase in cardio toxic side effects, such as heart attack, angina and heart failure,” Dr. Amir said. “Switching drugs may reduce the side effects.”</p>
<p>Although tamoxifen has a lower risk of causing heart disease, the drug has been linked with blood clots, stroke and cataracts.</p>
<p>Breast cancer is the most common type of tumor in women, and approximately 209,000 women will be diagnosed the disease this year, according to the American Cancer Society.</p>

<p>Have you felt that you are feeling ten pounds heavier than the previous day? And to top it off, the foods that you used to eat with no trouble at all are suddenly up against you leaving you bloated and gassy? </p>
<p>Don’t get panic stricken! You are not the only one. There are millions of people in the world who suffer from some type of allergy, food sensitivity or intolerance. The most common symptoms associated with it are flatulence, abdominal discomfort, headaches, diarrhea, skin rashes and eczema. And all these are actually caused due to the body being unable to digest the food properly due to lack of correct amounts of specific enzymes to do so. Many sufferers are unaware that there is a difference between intolerance and allergy. However, unlike food allergy, food intolerance is just the incapability of the digestive system to digest specific ingredients in the food. It does not involve your body’s immune system. It is otherwise known as non-allergy food hypersensitivity.  Food allergy on the other hand is caused by allergic reactions, where the immune system mistakenly identifies certain foods, especially proteins, as a threat and triggers an allergic reaction by releasing substances called histamines. The allergic reactions caused by histamines may vary from mild to severe, and in worst case scenario may require immediate medical attention. Therefore it is critical that the types of food that you are allergic to be identified and eliminated from the diet completely. </p>
<p>In theory though any food can trigger allergy, proteins are the most common culprit in <a href="http://www.exitallergy.com/allergy-articles/food-allergies.php">food allergies</a>. About 90% of food allergies caused is attributed to proteins. Diary products, wheat, rye, barley, eggs, soya, shellfish, fish and nuts in the diet are very often responsible for causing food allergies.  Though it is true that these foods are also part of the main food staple worldwide, and is used for making a huge variety of food stuff, they contain specific proteins which trigger an allergic reaction in your body. The reason is not clear as to why some people suddenly develop allergies to certain substances while others do not. But it does seem that stress and a depressed immune system contribute to the severity of allergies. </p>
<p>The best way therefore to avoid food intolerance and allergy is abstinence and living a healthy balanced life. However, when avoiding certain foods from your diet, it can be hard to maintain proper nutrients in your diet as some allergens are also vital sources of macronutrients like protein and fat, and also minerals and vitamins. So you can make up for these losses of nutrients through alternate <a href="http://www.dietpolicy.com/diets-articles/food-supplements.htm">food supplements</a>. But do keep in mind that every one is unique, so is our body composition, and one should seek a qualified practitioner’s advice before taking supplements. Coupled with this, a healthy <a href="http://www.womenhealthworld.com/health-articles/physicalfitness.html">physical fitness</a> plan will keep your allergic troubles far away by expelling toxins, reducing stress and boosting the immune system!  </p>

<p>Points in this video I agree with:</p>
<p><strong>Take measure to burn less, by eating antioxidant rich food</strong><br />
I used to burn a lot easier when I was 18.  That was because I was eating fast food regularly.  It&#8217;s crazy but bad nutrition, due to your lack of antioxidants in your skin <strong>will</strong> make you burn faster.</p>
<p>Live juices, salads, berries, <a href="http://www.jdoqocy.com/click-3904776-10583681\">super foods</a> will help your body protect yourself naturally from burning.</p>
<p><strong>Instead of sunscreen, take internal supplements</strong><br />
There are several supplements, here are a few great ones I found:<br />
<a href="http://products.mercola.com/vitamin-d-spray/?aid=CD250">Vitamin D spay</a> is also a clever way to get the supplement. I really believe in supplements in liquid form over capsule / pill form.  And if you read my blog you will notice I always talk about how much more economical they are, how much faster they are absorbed into our system etc.  </p>
<p><strong>“Vitamin X” AKA “Astaxanthin”</strong> acts as internal sunscreens. It is derived from microalgae and not only will protect you from burning in the sun but also great for treating pain weather it be arthritic, repetitive strain, or athletic related. Read more about the supplements backed by Mike Adams, “The Health Ranger”, <a href="http://store.naturalnews.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&amp;cPath=100151_100373&amp;products_id=1003213&amp;jxURL=http://tnn.checkoutsolutions.net/jrox.php?id=1061_VITX">here</a>.</p>
<p><strong>&#8220;<a href="http://www.1shoppingcart.com/app/?Clk=3588465">Radiance</a>&#8221; </strong>is the name of a supplement primarily based on GliSODin®- a Patented “antioxidant catalyst” from France.  Change the way your skin responds to sunlight and halt the harmful process that leads to burns, wrinkles and aging – <em>at the cellular level</em>.  Learn more and purchase <a href="http://www.1shoppingcart.com/app/?Clk=3588465">here</a>.</p>
<h3>Sunscreen is a last resort, when you are going to be in the sun too long to not burn</h3>
<p>and when you use this make it a natural one, like the one below, without chemicals actually linked to cancer.<br />

<p>Ok, I&#8217;m going to drink a cup of tea on my sunny porch now!</p>

When it comes to buying fruit, most people gravitate toward oranges, <a href="http://www.naturalhealthezine.com/an-apple-a-day-keeps-the-doctor-away/">apples</a>, bananas, and grapes. They often skip over the more unusual fruits. One of the fruits that are over looked is the kiwifruit. The kiwifruit is native to China. Many regions of Europe, South America, and North America have shortened the name from kiwifruit to simply kiwi. This little fruit has a brown peel which contains many hairs. Inside the peel, the fleshy part of the fruit is green, and the pulp in the center is white. The black seeds are located around the pulp and are edible. The taste of the kiwifruit is sweet and is described to be a mixture of strawberry, banana, and pineapple. The kiwifruit health benefits range from protecting against age related macular degeneration to having anti-oxidant properties that fight off aging.</p>
<p><strong>Fights Diseases &#038; Lowers Cholesterol</strong><br />
Kiwifruits are high in fiber, making them good for digestion. Fruits that are high in fiber help to improve diseases like diabetes. A natural occurring sugar alcohol, called inositol, is present in the kiwi. This compound might have a positive effect in the regulation of diabetes. This compound might also help with nerve conduction velocity, which is found in diabetic neuropathy.</p>
<p>Fiber helps to control sugar levels, and binds to toxic substances located in the colon. This helps to eliminate the toxic compounds from the colon which makes the organ function better. Diets high in fiber have also been proven to lower cholesterol levels, improve the health of people suffering from cardiovascular diseases, and lower the risk of a heart attack. One of the aspects for a healthy heart is an adequate sodium to potassium ratio. This ratio is excellent in the kiwifruit. This aspect lessens the chance that a person will have hypertension.</p>
<p><strong>Good For Your Eyes</strong><br />
The kiwifruit contains high amounts of vitamins A, C, and E which are the most typical anti-oxidant vitamins. The Archives of Ophthalmology have published a series of studies that has proven that eating three servings or more of fruit can lessen the risk of developing macular degeneration, which is an age related eye disease. The study was performed on 110,000 men and women that took place over several decades. The study showed that the people who ate fruits containing a high amount of vitamins A, C, and E had a better protection rate against macular degeneration than those who ate fewer of these fruits.</p>
<p><strong>Fights Aging</strong><br />
Along with protecting against macular degeneration, the vitamins A, C, and E are very powerful in helping to fight off signs of aging. The high amounts of these vitamins in the kiwifruit have been proven to fight off damage done by free radicals. Free radicals can destroy the cells in the body and cause early aging signs as well as various diseases, such as cancer and cardiovascular disease.</p>
<p><strong>Contains Minerals</strong><br />
Another great benefit of the kiwifruit is the fact that it is loaded with a variety of minerals, or electrolytes, that are necessary for the replenishment of these electrolytes <a href="http://www.naturalhealthezine.com/health-benefits-of-running/">during exercise</a>. This electrolyte replenishment is especially important for people who live in a hot environment. The Chinese came up with a kiwi-based sports drink that was designed particularly to help boost electrolytes in athletes that trained in hot environments. They added a 5% increase of carbohydrates to this juice to help regulate and maintain glucose levels while the athletes were training.</p>
<p><strong>Aids in Weight Loss</strong><br />
A <strong>weight loss fruit</strong>, the kiwifruit is an excellent fruit to eat when losing weight. One kiwi contains just 45 calories, 3 grams of fat, 1 gram of protein, 11 grams of carbohydrates, and 2.5 grams of fiber. This is one of the fruits that are lowest in calories. The fiber in the kiwi will help you feel fuller longer, and there&#8217;s no harm at all in eating more that one at a time. Kiwifruits are also high in potassium, in fact, they have the same amount as bananas. Potassium is great for sore muscle relief.</p>
<p><strong>Other health benefits that kiwifruits can provide are the following:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Prevents coughing and wheezing, particularly in children</li>
<li>Prevents asthma</li>
<li>Protects again DNA mutations</li>
<li>Helps with impotence</li>
<li>Boosts the immune system</li>
<li>Helps with depression</li>
</ul>
<p>As you can see, kiwifruit health benefits range all over. Next time you&#8217;re at the store, don&#8217;t just walk by these odd looking fruits. Put a few of them in your cart and try them out.</p>

Lauren is healing her Crohn&#8217;s disease naturally and doesn&#8217;t have to take over half the medication she used to be on due to her healing vegan diet and supplements.  I found Lauren&#8217;s <a href="http://crazysexylife.com/2009/life-with-crohns/" target="_blank">story</a> over at the Crazy Sexy Life blog. (go ahead and <a href="http://crazysexylife.com/2009/life-with-crohns/" target="_blank">read a little background</a> on her, I&#8217;ll wait) </p>
<h2>You mention you stressed and worried a lot.  About being diagnosed with crohns or in general about other aspects of your life?</h2>
<blockquote><p>The worrying started before crohn&#8217;s. I originally thought it was what brought on crohn&#8217;s disease. I still feel it probably played a big part in the disease showing up. I&#8217;ve always been a worrier, worrying about things that didn&#8217;t even matter, like what I was going to do tomorrow instead of living in the present moment and really being there. Crohn&#8217;s opened my eyes to this and has made me a more relaxed person. I don&#8217;t stress of things I can&#8217;t change, nor do I worry about the future. I live in the now and that&#8217;s the best I can do.</p></blockquote>
<h2>What essential practices keep you from worrying too much and how does that affect your health?</h2>
<blockquote><p>My essential practices are definitely yoga and meditation and like I mentioned, staying present. I find that quieting my mind even for 5 minutes a day makes a world of difference. Everything that matters before I do that seems to not matter anymore. I also read a page from an affirmation book and try to apply it to my day or pull an Angel Card from some oracle cards I have. I always seem to open to a page or pick a card that can relate to the situation I am in. </p></blockquote>
<h2>What are your primary supplements you can&#8217;t go without?</h2>
<blockquote><p>For Crohn&#8217;s I find supplements are important. We have absorption issues so a little extra goes a long way. I take a few things, right now I am pregnant so I take a raw vegan prenatal, I also always take vegan vitamin D, iron, B12, calcium, DHA oil, probiotics. I am always adding goodies like hemp seeds, maca powder, spirulina, chia seeds and goji berries to my smoothies.. When I am <strong>not</strong> pregnant I also take aloe vera juice (a shot every day as soon as I wake up) and digestive enzymes.</p></blockquote>
<h2>What is your exercise regime?</h2>
<blockquote><p>When I am not pregnant I exercise a lot! I really enjoy it as a hobby! I have treadmill so in the morning I will walk about 2 miles 6 days a week and also do either an aerobic type of video, weight lift or yoga. I also make sure I get some form of exercise after dinner, either walking with my dog, riding my bike, going on a hike. Usually something outside, as long as the weather permits. Right now, since I am pregnant, I walk 2 miles 5 days a week and I also do prenatal yoga once or twice a week.</p></blockquote>
<h2>What advice do you have to those diagnosed with Crohns disease, who are afraid NOT to take all the western medicine approaches?</h2>
<blockquote><p>My advice to anyone with Crohn&#8217;s is to go with your gut, no pun intended! I knew that at times my doctor (my old doctor) would try to have me on as much as possible without just trying out one thing at a time. I usually paid attention to how I felt on the lowest dose, or least amount of medication and then would add or take away if needed. Of course, I told my doctor I was doing this and wouldn&#8217;t suggest anyone doing it on their own. My doctor now is very understanding and knows I want to me on the least amount of medication possible. Our goal is to one day be off of all medication, where my old doctor had once told me that I would be on medication for life. My crohn&#8217;s isn&#8217;t healed enough to be completely off of everything, but I hope to get there in the future.</p></blockquote>
<h2>Where do you think you would be at if you didn&#8217;t go vegan and took all the medications they wanted you to take?</h2>
<blockquote><p>If I didn&#8217;t go vegan and took all the medications the doctors wanted me to take, I would probably not be pregnant! I would be very sick, not knowing that food had any part of healing. I was lucky to always be a health food and natural health advocate so I was aware of a lot of things that I don&#8217;t think many with crohn&#8217;s know. Diet plays a huge part, and cutting out meat and dairy is essential, in my opinion. Meat is extremely hard to digest and dairy.. well, who doesn&#8217;t have problems with dairy? IBD or not, most Americans can not digest dairy. So if you are eating it and have something like Crohn&#8217;s you are not going to heal your gut, and I definitely wouldn&#8217;t be where I am now.</p></blockquote>
<h2>I&#8217;m assuming high acidic drinks like coffee and alcohol are off limits for you, how do you substitute them?</h2>
<blockquote><p>I haven&#8217;t had coffee since a few months after being diagnosed. I was still drinking it for a short period and I did once try to have it again and it was only 2 days before I got sick. Alcohol was different, I was still drinking here and there up until about 2 years ago (I&#8217;ve had crohn&#8217;s for 5 years). I got really sick and ended up in the hospital after a few weekends of drinking a little red wine and that was the end of it for me. Now I drink a lot of herbal tea. I also love Teeccino! It is an herbal coffee made from herbs, grains, fruits and nuts. Definitely a great substitute. For alcohol I like to drink Kombucha which is a fermented drink that has lots of probiotics (helpful for the gut). For some reason it reminds me of alcohol, almost like a wine cooler. I pour it in a wine glass when we have friends over and it gives you an amazing feeling from all the benefits it provides. GTS brand is my favorite! </p></blockquote>

I&#8217;m so thrilled to share with you today the wisdom of Ani Kaspar.  You can learn more about her book that details the story of healing her breast cancer naturally <a href="http://www.healthmiracles.net/promoting-a-natural-cure-for-breast-cancer.html">here</a>.  When I heard of her brave decision to stop chemo, and feed her body what it needs to heal, and believe in the healing power of her own body&#8211; I knew I had to ask her some questions to share with you here!</p>
<h3>What form of exercise do you do and how often?  </h3>
<blockquote><p>Daily exercise is essential to sacred and miraculous wellness.  The beautiful, so very  intimate connection of mind, body and soul is what I call well-being.  When you exercise you invite not only bodily moments of grace, but you also surrender your mind&#8217;s busy-bee activities, and engage your rich soul&#8217;s deepest divinity.  The miracle of wellness, health and Being is actively allowed when you exercise.  I consider exercise a holy act, and an act that dances my entire Being, lovingly and sportively.  Daily I practice Kundalini yoga as taught by Gurmukh of Golden Bridge Yoga.  I cannot more highly recommend a practice for whole health and deep soul empowerment.  My connection to nature is strong so ocean swimming, snorkeling, and long sunset walks along the beach are my chosen methods of spending more time in nature&#8217;s radiance, abundance, and harmony.  Daily I choose the best option for my personal wellness.  Literally, often I will simply ask myself: what do you need today?  God/dess is inclusive, so whatever answer arrives incorporates what each cell in my body desires, what the destiny of my soul chooses, and what motion stills my mind and engages my heart most deeply.  </p></blockquote>
<h3>What are the three most major things you do to keep your life in balance (stress free)? </h3>
<blockquote>
<ol>
<li>Each morning when awaken, after drinking freshly juiced lemon water,  I meditate.  Having studied many traditions, I&#8217;ve developed a personal mediation that is flexible and resonates with where I am in the moment.  My mediation is fluid, alive and filled to the brim with soft love.  I allow myself to be led into a state of still grace and remain there for as long as I am able given the day&#8217;s events.  Always in the early afternoon personal affirmations close to my center of Being are recited to enhance the day and my connection to Being.  </li>
<li>I also practice what I call moment-to-moment intentional thinking.  The more continually I focus upon choices that are most loving, beneficial and truthful for my soul, the more I am in alignment with God/dess or the divine.  The more I align with divine frequencies, the more miracles cascade upon my life, the more paradise on earth is created before my grateful eyes.  The subtle power of moment-to-moment intentional thinking is amazing &#8211; it is, I have found, the instant manifestation of loving grace in our lives.  </li>
<li>Most importantly I love.  I choose to love &#8211; myself, my life, all aspects of being in our world today, and every one I encounter in my life, regardless of superficial differences or dis-agreements.  I choose to love.  Love is the masterpiece piece in healing, in health and well-Being.  Always love, and love more!</li>
</ol>
</blockquote>
<h3>What are your core supplements?</h3>
<blockquote><p>
Bio SuperFood, E3-Live, Marine Phytoplankon, Quinton Marine Plasma, DIM-Plus, Protective Breast Formula, CoQ10, Zyflamend, Chorella, Spirulina and other major superfoods.  I focus exclusively on organic, whole foods based supplements to super-nourish my body.  </p></blockquote>
<h3>What kind of diet do you eat? </h3>
<blockquote><p>While I respect the incredible living foods movement, I found after many years of following a living foods lifestyle, that 100% raw doesn&#8217;t best suit my Being.  Now I follow what I call a bio-compatible diet: 80% organic, living foods, with lots of greens, sprouts and anti-cancer specific foods and 20% organic, cooked food, always specific for anti-cancer effects.  </p>
<p>Some of the best anti-cancer foods and diets are listed in a few fabulous books: &#8216;Anti-Cancer: A New Way of Life,&#8217; &#8216;Beating Cancer with Nutrition,&#8217; Nature&#8217;s Cancer-Fighting Foods,&#8217; and &#8216;Foods to Fight Cancer.&#8217;  Ingest each of these books and you can create the best diet choice for your body, your type of cancer or other dis-ease and begin deep physical healing.  </p>
<p>I prefer 80% living foods because when I eat living foods, I consume the vibrant energy of the greatest life-supporting force in or galaxy, the sun.  I also alkalize my body and build my blood by ingesting the great green God/dess &#8211; chlorophyll.  I could write a book about the miraculous benefits of chlorophyll. However, I believe we all by now know that a plants blood, or chlorophyll, is akin to our own.  With every bite of a strong chlorophyll based food, your body is deeply replenished and refreshed.  The very best sources of chlorophyll are green grass, algae and plankton.  I eat and drink as much as I can of these miraculous &#8220;sun foods.&#8221;  I believe we all should, given the state of our &#8220;food supply&#8221; and its vital loss of nutrients.  Along with ingesting &#8220;sun food&#8221; I ingest &#8220;water food.&#8221; Pure, truly unprocessed living water if possible, is critical to well-Being.  </p>
<p>Often dis-ease is allowed a foothold simply because we are dehydrated. We need to drink, daily, as much living, pure water as possible, to help the body cleanse, to replenish our cells with necessary oxygen, and to engage our soul&#8217;s  &#8220;fluidity&#8221; or capacity for transformation.  I prefer natural spring water.  </p>
<p>Always before I eat or drink I thank the element, all who have contributed to its gift of nourishment to me, and love deeply the sacred grace of the life the food or water gifts me. </p></blockquote>
<h3>What do you have to say about people who are afraid of taking the alternative route to healing cancer?  </h3>
<blockquote><p>I believe in the right to choose.  I believe what is right for me may be wrong for you.  We are one, but we are individual.  God/dess supports our diversity with her love and her grace, moment to moment, breath to breath.  Our purpose is to understand deeply who we are, what nurtures us, and what blesses us.  In a medical system committed to authentic healing and wholeness, we would be allowed the amazing myriad choices Gaia offers us.  </p>
<p>We also would be offered the practices necessary for us to make the wisest, most authentic choices for our well-Being.  We know what is best for us.  We truly do.  Healing medicine facilitates our deepest, most authentic knowing.  I believe our immortal existence is about choice, moment to moment, breath to breath.  </p>
<p>Whatever you choose is perfect for you, for your soul&#8217;s journey and growth, and for your deepest healing.  Even if the end result &#8211; to which we remain unattached &#8211; is &#8216;transformation,&#8217; the term I use for death. You have the right to choose what most benefits you as an eternal Being, not only as a human being.  I believe dis-ease, healing and death, all to be energy state changes.  Love or true life is the immortal pulse choosing a given state simply to experience the limitlessness of Being.  </p></blockquote>

<h3>What is the most important thing to you in keeping a healthy home?  </h3>
<blockquote><p>Love is the most important element to creating and keeping a healthy home.  Without love, all else fails.  You can eat the best, most organic and pristine anti-cancer foods, use only the most organic and natural personal and house care products, live in the greenest house possible, however, without love, of self, of others, of all that is, has ever been and ever shall be, without love with out conditions, we miss the mark in creating a healthy home.  Home is where the heart is &#8211; Si? </p></blockquote>

<p>When Ani Kaspar was diagnosed with breast cancer, she put her foot down on the unethical conventional cancer treatments and made a bold step to trust in her body&#8217;s natural ability to heal with alternative methods like eating organic, raw, living foods (for example). </p>
<p>She is a four-year thriver of intra-ductal carcinoma-the most prevalent breast cancer in the world. She champions for the ethical treatment of cancer.  Ani makes the connection that her cancer was related to her high stress life&#8211; fifteen years of working as a financial adviser on Wall Street, fighting to be respected in this &#8220;man&#8217;s world&#8221; industry.  </p>
<p>Here are some excerpts from her book, <em>Pelicans, Coconuts &#038; Butterflies: Conquering Cancer with a Life of Soul</em>:</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;That any woman should have such inhumane and limited options as chemotherapy, radiation, or surgery, and have to pay such outrageous amounts of money to survive leaves the reader sympathetic, angry, and even fearful for his or her own medical future. Ani explains, “My medical insurance is dismal. After working since I was sixteen, succeeding in my personal and professional endeavors, after contributing to my country, to its people, to its economic stability, health insurance for me, an American woman, is wretched.”</p></blockquote>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;I know natural cures exist. I know our current health care system cannot profit from them because they cannot be patented, and that’s why every sector of the system pursues the invasive protocols that bring in so much money. And I also know that even our own conventional world medical community has the heart, the brilliance, and the astounding financial resources to deliver a humane cure to all cancers. Because I know these truths, I will not allow one moment of profit from my body. I refuse to allow you, the conventional medical community, to treat my body until you do it humanely.&#8221; -Ani Kaspar</p></blockquote>
<blockquote><p>She could not agree to chemotherapy or the other violent means to cure her body by using poison to fight poison. Instead, she sought natural healing, energy healing, and alternative therapies because, “The disease doesn’t frighten me—it’s the treatment, the horrifying, barbaric, perverse treatment that frightens me the way it does most cancer patients. And rightfully so.” Ani provides a great deal of support for her decision by noting that less than 4% of women treated for breast-cancer do not see a recurrence of cancer within five years, and chemotherapy is only effective in three-percent of treatments.  &#8211; Tyler R. Tichelaar, Ph.D., author of the award-winning Narrow Lives</p></blockquote>

She visits Lake Atitlán in Guatemala to escape the criminality of her country and a life sick with breast cancer, to heal and be at one with her soul. </p>
<p>Ani Kaspar did so much more than write a book tho!  She has many healing miracle testimonials from those who partake in her health programs are posted on her site from her 2 programs:<br />
<a href="http://pelicanscoconutsandbutterflies.com/about/bodybybliss%E2%84%A2/">Body by Bliss</a>- a 3 week intensive program and and <a href="http://pelicanscoconutsandbutterflies.com/about/is%E2%84%A2-%E2%80%93-intuitive-sovereignty/">IS® Intuitive Sovereignty</a>- Ani&#8217;s coaching program which is accompanied by a series of 33 exercises that expand physical, mental and spiritual awareness. </p>

<div class="alert"><strong><strong>UPDATE:</strong> Immediately after writing this post I emailed Ani asking here a few Q&#8217;s for a Q+A post, and she gladly doled out her wisdom <a href="http://www.healthmiracles.net/qa-with-breast-cancer-thriver-on-promoting-natural-cure-for-cancer.html">here</a></strong></div>
