| Publisher Description: At a conference several years ago, psychologist Catherine Phillips heard the Dalai Lama say, "The single most important thing you can do for healing is to cultivate a warm heart." "That's it!" she thought. That one sentence captured what she had learned in more than 15 years of working with cancer patients and their families through the Healing Journey, a program that helps people cope with cancer. In this book, Dr. Phillips brings the intimacy of a support group into the reader's private world. She teaches simple yet effective techniques to promote physical, emotional, and spiritual healing and shares real-life stories from patients about their own experiences through the ups and downs of cancer. |
