About Eight Little Lessons of Hope & Healing

“Eight Little Lessons of Hope and Healing” is the meditative book based on the memoir, “Living to Tell,” written by cancer survivor Laurie Beck. Her incredible journey battling cancer taught her that each individual has their own healing power within. With the desire to extend this knowledge to others and encourage each individual to their personal healing strength, she shares the eight daily intentions that helped save her life.

Sometimes you have to invent your own miracle.

“I firmly believe you can’t just cut the cancer out of you, do some chemo or radiation and think you’re done. You have to cut the cancer out of your mind. You have to live, eat and breathe positive intention. You have to find a way to forgive so that the healing can begin. You need to search every day to find serenity. And you need to make sure that you are throwing every healing modality, Western, Eastern and otherwise, that you can at that disease in your body,” shares Beck.

“I look back five years later with such gratitude that my mind and heart opened to a space and place I may have never found,” Beck continues. “Self-healing is an empowering choice and an action to bring awareness into our lives.”

In the book, each intention focuses on unifying the mind, body and spirit with uplifting thoughts of harmony, positivity and humor. Whether an individual is battling cancer or working to overcome life challenges, Laurie’s intentions bring hope and healing. The intentions are meant to help shift a individual’s thinking, if only for a second, minute or hour. Perhaps even for a lifetime.

Physicist Albert Einstein theorized that, “Energy is thought.” Subtle energy is the non-material fabric of the universe, limitless, infinite, everywhere in everything. Simply put, you have the power!

Dear Jill,

I’m so stoked to hear your great results! Yay!

This book looks interesting. Thank you for offering it and for all you do to keep this forum going!

So happy to hear your news. I have my yearly fun day tomorrow which I dread. It has been 8 years in August, and I can honestly say I feel more like myself this year than I have in the past 8. It took awhile but perseverance paid off. Sharron

 Hey Sharron you are one of the two winners. Private message me your mailing address and full name. ;-)

Great news on your results :-)

Ah, “cut the cancer out of your mind.” Not so easy.

Wonderful to read the news of your results!

Jill, it is wonderful to read that you had great results to share.
Hugs,
Sara

Good news Jill! I am so happy for you!
Sending love and positive thoughts

Great news on your results….looking forward to getting my good results in a month!

Healing your mind and changing it according to situation is easy for only those wo are stable and matured. i am a person who find a small thing like a mountain so this is really tough for me.

Jill, it is so wonderful to hear the GREAT news! It is what all are looking forward to hear. You certainly are a positive and strong individual. Thank you for being there for all of us. Love you Jill!

 You are one of the two winners. Private message me your mailing address and full name. Have a great day!

 Not sure you got my last message. You won. Send me your mailing address when you get a chance. Hope you are enjoying this Sunday.

Well my reply is too late, but certainly those words quoted are powerful! I hope maybe you can give another winner a chance and it be me!

If not, still kudo’s to you Jill, because what you have given us all is irreplaceable. BFAC is healing!

This is the second memorial I set up this weekend. That is too many! Too many! Cancer Fucking Sucks!

No kidding. I was at a friend’s funeral last week; brain cancer. Not just a friend, he & I were also Radiation clinic alumni.

I know “Fucking” really belongs on the t-shirt, but would probably get censored everywhere. So we’ll just have to keep imagining the “Fucking” when we wear our “Cancer Sucks”.
Thank you again, for all you do, Patron Goddess Jill.

Hi Jill;

So sorry that you had to lose so many of your “kids” in such a short period of time.

Love Barb

Hi Jill! I hope you remember me. You have been so strong for all of us, and I appreciate all that you have done, and are doing. You are strong! It hurts my heart to come to the understanding that somebody, somewhere, just aren’t getting the picture about this devastating disease. It makes me sick on the stomach to know that, instead of leveling off, this devil seems to be getting stronger; I HATE it. It probably want us to give up, to give in, to its negativity, but I will not give up, and I know my family here will not give up. We have to beat this thing, someway, somehow. What does it take for our government to understand that enough is not being done; that we need funds to conquer this beast?

Well, Jill, I don’t want to sound ungrateful for the Blessings we have, but it just hurts to bad to hear that this awful disease has taken another member.

Love, Peace and continued prayers to you and the blog family for the ongoing fight. I love all of you.

 I definitely remember you. Thank you for your comment. It helped me a lot. I hope you are doing well. I am off for my CT scan this morning. No coffee until after. Think I need to get a nice treat for myself after. Not sure what that should be yet. xoxoox, Jill

Oh Jill, I think I failed to mention that another person who was a very close friend, died recently of pancreatic cancer; he was only 25 years old; graduated from the University of California, Berkeley, and was working on his Masters. Too young, too soon!
