Beautiful. . . . If you are facing cancer or any other serious illness, I encourage you to allow the wisdom contained within these pages to nurture, guide, and support you.-Deepak Chopra, M.D., from his foreword

Return to Wholeness is a revelation. David Simon breaks new ground with the innovative, holistic mind-body approaches developed at the Chopra Center for Well Being. The guiding theme in this book is wholeness, as Dr. Simon demonstrates to readers the value of integrating the best of traditional and alternative medicines with ancient Eastern, Ayurvedic principles and practices in order to forge the most effective path to wellness.

Return to Wholeness features advice and recommendations on every aspect of living with illness, including designing a simple nutritional program to purify, rejuvenate, and provide balance; benefiting from the healing properties of vitamins, minerals, phytochemicals, and herbs; facing the toll exacted by chemotherapy and other medical techniques; incorporating various kinds of meditation, creative visualization, and aromatherapy into the larger Return to Wholeness program; and weathering emotional cycles through art therapy, journaling, laughter, and music.

""Return to Wholeness is magnificent. Reading this book made me feel embraced and uplifted by all that is healing and true. Return to Wholeness should be kept on the nightstand of everyone who has cancer or another illness or who is afraid of becoming ill."" - Christiane Northrup, M.D. author of Women's Bodies, Women's Wisdom

""Return to Wholeness is the perfect book for anyone facing the diagnosis of cancer. . . . Powerful, powerful teachings you will not read elsewhere from a medical doctor."" -Wayne Dyer, Ph.D., author of Manifest Your Destiny

""Gentle, compassionate, and yet thorough . . . a book that awakens the inner healer in all of us."" - Louise L. Hay, author of You Can Heal Your Life

""An excellent source of information and guidance to help one integrate one's life and approach to cancer.""
-Bernie S. Siegel, M.D., author of Love, Medicine, and Miracles

""In every great challenge of life, we need guides who can show us the way. Dr. David Simon is a wise, compassionate physician who can help anyone on the journey through the experience of cancer."" -Larry Dossey, M.D. author of Prayer Is Good Medicine and Healing Words

Review:
"Over the course of a lifetime, almost half of all North American men and nearly 40 percent of North American women will get cancer." Those petrifying statistics, and a profound interest in mind-body medicine, drew Dr. David Simon, director of the Chopra Center for Well Being, to write Return to Wholeness. Where most books on cancer focus on treatment for eradicating the disease, this book refreshingly combines Eastern and Western healing principles to focus on helping the whole person heal--emotionally, spiritually, and physically.

Simon's book answers many questions that the newly diagnosed may have, among them, "How can I stimulate my inner healing response to maximize the benefit of my medical treatments? How can I be an active partner rather than a passive participant in my therapeutic journey?" It covers alternative therapies, including meditation, prayer, Ayurveda, journaling, visualization techniques, art and music therapy, and nutritional programs including vitamin, mineral, and phytochemical supplementation.

Return to Wholeness should be of special benefit to survivors living in constant fear or recurrence, or those who have had no obvious risk factors. "When a heavy smoker develops throat cancer, we may not question why his illness arose," Simon writes. "When someone [with excellent health habits] gets sick, our sense of order is threatened, and we search, often unsuccessfully, for some reasonable explanation. But, even if we cannot easily understand why someone's mind-body system allows cancer to arise, we can at any moment make choices to strengthen our immunity and improve our overall quality of life." --Erica Jorgensen

From the Inside Flap:
"I hope to inspire and encourage you with the thought that through the power inherent in your heart and mind, you can steer a course to a place of profound healing." — Dr. David Simon, from his introduction Seamlessly merging the deep intuition and practices of Eastern natural healing with the advanced technology of Western medicine, Return to Wholeness is a revelation. Over the course of a lifetime, almost half of all North American men and nearly 40 percent of North American women will get cancer. For the millions coping with this disease, David Simon breaks new ground with the innovative holistic mind-body approaches developed at the Chopra Center for Well Being. The guiding theme of this book is wholeness, as Simon demonstrates to readers the value of integrating the best of traditional and alternative medicines with ancient Eastern, Ayurvedic principles and practices in order to forge the most effective path to wellness. Richly annotated, Return to Wholeness features advice and recommendations on every aspect of living with illness, including:
  • Designing a simple nutritional program to purify, rejuvenate, and provide balance
  • Benefiting from the healing properties of vitamins, minerals, phytochemicals, and herbs
  • Withstanding the toll exacted by chemotherapy and other medical techniques
  • Incorporating various kinds of meditation, creative visualization, and aro-matherapy into the larger Return to Wholeness program
  • Specific advice on dealing with breast, prostate, and colon cancers
  • Weathering emotional cycles through art therapy, journaling, laughter, and music
Guiding those with cancer—along with families and caregivers—toward a new environment where the physical and the spiritual are one, Dr. David Simon provides unprecedented support and hope in our ultimately rewarding return to wholeness.
