The other day I posted on my Facebook page some suggestions for staying cancer free:
1. Eat green, cruciferous and other colorful, nourishing vegetables.
2. Eat a variety of fruits -- 3+ a day.
3. Eat only healthy, plant-based fats and proteins.
4. Exercise at least 30 minutes a day, on most days of the week.
5. Avoid processed foods, alcohol, caffeine, cigarette smoke and excess sugar.
Then I realized that I was forgetting the most critical ingredients:
1. Practice stress relief every day -- breathwork, meditation, yoga asanas.
2. Forgive everyone everything.
3. Be grateful for at least one thing for every complaint you have.
4. Give of yourself -- even if it is a smile, a flower, a kind thought or word.
5. Create something -- a poem, a meal, a photograph or drawing.
This is my recipe for creating a new consciousness essential to recovery from cancer.
