Getting well again: the bestselling classic about the simontons' revolutionary lifesaving self- awareness techniques - o. carl simonton

Based on the Simontons experience with hundreds of patients at their world-famous Cancer Counseling and Research Center, Getting Well Again introduces the scientific basis for the will to live.

In this revolutionary book the Simontons profile the typical cancer personality: how an individuals reactions to stress and other emotional factors can contribute to the onset and progress of cancer -- and how positive expectations, self-awareness, and self-care can contribute to survival.

This book offers the same self-help techniques the Simontons patients have used to successfully to reinforce usual medical treatment -- techniques for learning positive attitudes, relaxation, visualization, goal setting, managing pain, exercise, and building an emotional support system.
