Losing Weight May Help Lower Cancer Risk
There are so many reasons to lose weight and one of them is to help lower the risk of cancer. According to a study published in the journal Cancer Research, losing even a small proportion of your overall body weight significantly reduces inflammation in your body and potentially lowers your risk of developing several different [...]
Healthy Diet, Regular Exercise Can Improve Cancer Survival Odds
With all clients in my Seattle hypnosis and Bainbridge Island hypnosis offices I talk about the importance of a healthy diet, regular exercise and how this impacts health. I have worked with many people who are living with cancer or who are cancer survivors. I talk about the importance of a plant-strong diet, being physically [...]
Stress Reduction Helps Patients Battle Cancer
It should be no surprise that stress reduction helps patients battle cancer. For the past several years I have had the opportunity to teach stress reduction, mindfulness and self hypnosis skills to many people living with and recovering from cancer. Learning how to be calm and relaxed in stressful situations has been essential for these [...]
Protect Thyroid With Produce
The more produce that you eat, the more that you are doing to protect your thyroid from cancer. For years now, doctors like John McDougall, Neal Barnard, T. Collin Campbell, Caldwell Esselstyn, Dean Ornish, Joel Fuhrman and others have taught us about the dangers of eating chicken, fish, beef, pork and all dairy products. Study [...]
Hot Dogs Cause Butt Cancer
I wish I could do a video in front of the billboard Hot Dogs Cause Butt Cancer, but this will have to do. Next time you are standing in line at Costco or the ballpark for a hotdog, remember that colorectal cancer is one of the leading cancers in the United States, attacking 140,000 Americans [...]
Eggs Linked to Prostrate Cancer
I was reading the Winter 2012 issue of Good Medicine and discovered that men who eat 2.5 eggs per week increase their risk of prostrate cancer by 81%. I don’t know about you, but I have never eaten an egg that tasted so good that is was worth increasing my risk of prostrate cancer. Yes, [...]
Hypnosis For Cancer
Women undergoing surgery for breast cancer who received a brief hypnosis session before entering the operating room required less anesthesia and pain medication during surgery, and reported less pain, nausea, fatigue, and discomfort after surgery than women who did not receive hypnosis. This afternoon I have the pleasure of speaking to about 50 people (doctors, [...]
Meat and Dairy Promote Cancer
Cornell professor T. Colin Campbell discusses his decades of NIH-funded research which show that meat and dairy promote cancer growth and a plant-based (vegan) diet can prevent and even reverse cancer. T.Collin Campbell is the author of The China Study and world renowned lecturer. The China Study details the connection between nutrition and heart disease, [...]
Well-done Red Meat Linked to Aggressive Prostate Cancer
The news that well-done red meat is being linked to aggressive prostate cancer shouldn’t be too big of a surprise to you. What’s surprising to me is how many people simply don’t care and want their meat anyway. The look on some people’s face when I suggest that they consider eating only plant-based food is [...]
There’s No Debate ~ Hot Dogs Cause Cancer
PCRM says that there is no debate about it, hot dogs cause cancer. When I think of all the cold hot dog sandwiches (on white bread, of course) that I ate as a kid in my school lunches, it sends a chill down my spine. I’ll admit it, as I kid, I couldn’t have imagined [...]
Omega-3 Fatty Acids Increase Prostate Cancer Risk
According to Neal Barnard, MD, the President of The Physicians Committee For Responsible Medicine (PCRM), omega-3 fatty acids increase the risk of prostate cancer. Have you been believing all the hype about omega-3? Well, think again. In many recent studies, fish oil has not lived up to its marketing claims. Specifically, it is no help [...]

Living with any disease is stress for the individual, their family and caregivers. Stress affects the immune system only to complicate matters. Join us and find out how hypnosis can help cancer survivors [...]
Cancer – Stay Positive
Having a positive attitude is important when living with cancer or any with disease. Attitude is important. Your attitude to anything in life is tied to your expectation. And your expectations have a lot to do with what you experience. This doesn’t mean that always being positive means we always experience positive things but a [...]
