Many people have now turned to complementary medicine to help with the effects of cancer and cancer treatment. This is not to say that any of them have rejected traditional medicine, just supplement it with extras like prayer and meditation, nutritional supplements, relaxation techniques and more.
My middle daughter has used those listed above with great results. Oral chelation with supplements removed the toxins that come with the chemotherapy before they could make her sick. A nutrition supplement replenished her dietary needs. Prayer and meditation relaxed her and put her in an accepting frame of mind.

Medicine for the Spirit
Meditation is medicine for the spirit. Nutrition can heal the mind, but meditation can heal the spirit. I recently had a great experience with active meditation. In order to promote a consistent healthy exercise plan a group of my friends and family have started a walking group. We meet every day possible and walk at a vacant school gymnasium. During these events I have begun a regiment of running, concentrating very heavily on my breathing. This level of concentration causes me to enter into a state of meditation that is very difficult to break and causes me to be able to run longer with less pain or breath control problems. Long distance running has been a problem for me because of a shortness of breath. I have never been able to run around the block. Today when I practice meditation while running I can run for half an hour or better. It is my goal to continue to run for longer periods of time. I do experience a great peace of mind while a run and after I run when meditation is involved.
