Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Health and wellbeing is everyone's concern - every human being aspires for it in whichever way he knows it. It is just that different people have different ideas of what health is, and still more different ideas of what wellbeing is. Unfortunately, society today has a very limited understanding of what health means. Medical science as we know it has advanced by leaps and bounds. Yet, at the same time, probably never before has humanity known the kind of ill-health that they experience today. We have overcome infections and epidemics, but the diseases that human beings manufacture within themselves are becoming more prevalent. For almost every infection that can arise today, medical science has some solution. But for chronic ailments like diabetes, blood pressure, migraines or whatever else, medical science does not offer any solution. It only talks about managing these diseases, never really about freeing people from them. There are so many kinds of specialists, and a lot of money and time is being spent on just managing these chronic diseases within certain limitations.Though many people are going about as if health is the ultimate goal of life, it is not. Health is a natural process. If we don't mess with the system, the system is designed to run in a healthy manner. Yoga is not focused on health because what you call "health" is a natural outcome of being in harmony within yourself. There are hundreds of thousands of people who have come out of serious chronic ailments, which generally were given up as hopeless cases, with just a simple, foundational yogic practice. If this human mechanism is properly attuned to the very source of creation functioning within you, health is a natural consequence. Can yoga also cure cancer? I would not say it is a cure, but it can definitely enhance the immune system and the body's balance and vibrancy as a whole. To what extent is subject to various realities - the way one's constitution is made, and to what intensity and in what kind of atmosphere one can practice. This is a medical fact also, that something as simple as physical exercise decides the distinction between health and ill-health for a lot of people. Just taking a walk in the morning can make a person healthy. Similarly, yoga is a more complex system, which is not limited to the benefits of exercise. It is much more than that. If it is done properly, there will definitely be a benefit. Is it a miracle? No, because it is a science. As with any other science, you have to apply it and work with it step-by-step. This book gives Sadhguru's insights on the various causes of cancer and what can be done to go beyond the disease. The book also includes several methods and practices from the yogic system to help one lead a healthy and joyful life.

Yoga therapists are part of an evidenced-informed health care team uniquely qualified to support whole-person community care throughout the continuum of the cancer experience, professionally and with tender-hearted humanity. Yoga Therapy Across the Cancer Care Continuum: - Describes the unique emotional, mental, physical, and spiritual experiences of people at each stage of the cancer care continuum (including diagnosis, acute treatment, no evidence of disease or living with chronic disease, cancer recurrence, and end of life) and the responsive support offered by the breadth of individualized yoga therapy care. - Explains the biology of cancer and the challenges associated with type and stage of malignancy, as well as adverse side effects of conventional treatment (surgery, radiation, immunotherapy, hormone therapy, targeted therapy, and hematopoietic stem cell transplant), comorbid health conditions, and their impact on the whole person: mind, body, and soul. - Shares the unique perspective of 40 oncology yoga therapists with exceptional expertise working with diverse cancer populations in academic medical centers, hospitals, clinics, studios, in-home, and via-telehealth; includes clinical experience and scientific research that highlights relative contraindications and clinical "pearls". - Explores a unique model of yoga therapy that is informed by ancient yoga philosophy and modern biomedical research, reinforced by skillful and compassionate therapeutic relationship, intelligent yoga practice, and the tender-hearted humanity of co-regulation and resourcing for both patient/client and therapist. - Highlights practical and professional considerations for yoga therapists and yoga teachers working in cancer, including scope of practice, informed consent, safety considerations and contraindications, liability insurance, waivers, clinical notes, co-assessments, and essential referrals to allied health care professionals; integrating yoga therapy into healthcare. - Acknowledges disparity and inequity in cancer care worldwide and advocates for inclusive, safe, and accessible yoga for all people impacted by cancer. - Calls for the integration of yoga therapy into standard oncology care; discusses barriers, obstacles, and suggestions for the way forward. - Recognizes Yoga as a time-honored mind-body science originating in ancient India. Yogic teachings presented in this book are shared with gratitude and utmost respect. Yoga Therapy Across the Cancer Care Continuum is essential reading for all oncology professionals interested in yoga as an evidence-informed therapeutic intervention to improve the lives of people with cancer and for self-care, including physicians, nurse practitioners, nurses, physical therapists, psychologists, social workers, acupuncturists, yoga therapists and yoga teachers, and all allied health professionals - as well as people with cancer and survivors, their families, and caregivers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In this book, I have described significant patterns in the life histories and emotional responses of cancer patients, which suggested to me the notion of a “Cancer Personality”; and then I came to know where the real “Cancer” in our society is. There should be a certain “resonance” between therapist and patient as a decisive factor in psychotherapy which triggers the natural healing process. Thus my basic interest is in “paranormal phenomena” while dealing with cancer and heart patients simply because evolution in ‘Biology’ is outdated, now the talk is about ‘evolution of consciousness’. Changing the patient’s belief system about cancer and the belief systems of the patient and the physician are crucial to the success of the therapy and can be used effectively to support the patient’s potential for selfhealing."
