WHAT IS CaNCER COACHING
and why would you need a Cancer CoacH?
Cancer coaching might sound new and unusual to you. Let me explain.
As a cancer coach I am your champion - cheering you onwards on your recovery journey, presenting you with all the knowledge and research to make your informed choices and most of all I am there for you every step of the way.
If you were to climb Mount Everest, would you do it on your own? Why would you 'do' cancer on your own?
I have founded the framework 'The 5 Essentials Method’. Five essential areas in life that build a holistic whole in healing and recovery from breast cancer.
If you have had a diagnosis you will most likely feel overwhelmed by an overload of conflicting information and tough choices to make .
In the midst of this you want to do ‘the right and the best thing’ to find your way back to health and life. It is an emotional time and such a tough time. I have been there myself and therefore know all the feelings!
My passion for learning and research and my passion for health have led me to develop a programme for women like you and me, that contains everything we need to know, do and be to move forward to find our best life.
I believe, know and have experienced myself that the 'new normal’ after cancer can be the best and most vibrant ‘normal’ that you ever experienced. As a cancer coach I am with you on the journey.
Don't get me wrong, I am not at all suggesting that we do not need any medical support and I hope that you have some great support. However, your medical team will worry about your tumour, not necessarily the rest of you and you might find yourself alone especially after active treatment has finished.
And whether you want to recover from chemo and treatment or support yourself alongside or THRIVE into a new life after cancer...The 5 Essentials are the key.
Medical treatment is tumour focused, here with The 5 Essentials we are terrain focused and the terrain is YOU! The terrain, the entire and amazing whole of you who for some reason became host for a cancerous tumour. Let's do everything we can for this never to happen again, or if you have advanced cancer to do anything we can to keep the tumours from growing.
How important is your health?
Are you ignoring symptoms? Have you been suffering with digestive issues, reoccurring skin issues, mental health issues, brain fog, fatigue?
All too often our life situation appears to leave us with no choice but to ignore such symptoms and to carry on believing ‘this is nothing’.
All these niggles is our body communicating with us, urging us to take care of ourselves, let’s think here of physical symptoms but also emotions. Are we listening to the messages or are we ignoring them just to wait for the messages to get louder and louder?
Little things can and will lead to bigger issues so we should not be surprised if ‘suddenly’ the diagnosis is: diabetes type 2, heart disease, auto immune condition, cancer…and so on.
This is known as life style disease but please do not feel it is your fault if you are ill with such a disease. We eat convenience food because we are in a hurry, we are stressed from modern life, we have no time to rest, and our environment is filled with toxins.
We do have a choice, it is a choice of priorities, remember only 5-10% of all cancers are genetic and the rest are lifestyle related - this means the power is yours to create changes! Good news, don't you think?
Start here and Now! You CAN thrive with a diagnosis!
