Publisher's summary

With the right attitude, you can make your day of surgery one of rebirth! This uplifting audio program by medical revolutionary Dr. Bernie Siegel brings you a series of visualization exercises to help you mentally prepare for medical procedures such as surgery and chemotherapy. Siegel explains how your desire and intention affect the physical world, and how these visualizations can help you alter your perceptions and heal.

The first visualization exercise will help you prepare yourself for the challenges you will confront. Three related exercises specifically prepare you for chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery. When you think of your medical treatments as gifts rather than poisons, your body and soul will be prepared to heal.

Every cancer patient should listen.

I have been in Cancer treatment for 2 years and always listen to this book before and during treatment. It helps get me focused and stay positive through the process. I recommend it to anyone going through a cancer diagnosis.
