Abstract
This CD offers relaxation through guided imagery. Just as the
hummingbird knows how to draw nurture from the flowers, so the
listener is encouraged to draw upon images in nature that are
peaceful and calming. To variations of the tune of the well-loved
song "All through the night", we are reminded how nature itself
needs to sleep. The journey continues with progressive muscle
relaxation, the sound of gentle waves and finally the lovely mantra
"I am calm, I am peaceful, I am loved and I am healing". It ends
with guitar music and humming lull the listener further into restful
sleep.

"How To Be A Cancer Patient delivers universal tools, in an easy to understand format, that addresses these vital needs for patients with any type of cancer diagnosis. The easy-to-use tools and strategies were developed through the experiences of a process driven cancer survivor who endured two surgeries, 15+ days of inpatient hospital stays for chemo and complications and 15 doses of radiation. It also includes honest, raw and sometimes hilarious accounts on how these tools were developed during the course of a LOT of cancer treatment."-- From Amazon

Abstract
"Looking after someone with cancer can be complex, overwhelming, and emotionally draining all at once. As a caregiver, you may also overlook your own well-being while you focus on your loved one. This book empowers you to be an attentive, thoughtful, and compassionate caregiver for your friend or family member with cancer. You'll also find practical everyday advice for meeting your own physical and emotional needs while dealing with the unique challenges you face."-- Provided by publisher

Abstract
In this CD, Dr. Nelems describes the detrimental effects of
persistent stress and anxiety on the immune system and how
favourable immune responses can be created by evoking the
relaxation response. A progressive muscle relaxation follows using
the breath to help release the tensions and anxieties of the day in
order to prepare for restful sleep (Sunset). It also introduces the
dynamic process of relaxation that allows us to become actively
involved in our healing journey and to interact in a healing way with
the inspiring images of nature?s renewal seen in day break or the
return of spring.
