Synopsis

Jan's memoir describes the life experiences that enabled her to survive and thrive with cancer for more than 30 years. Early in her life she learned to trust her intuition, be curious, and trust the self-healing ability of her body. She describes the many strategies she used for healing, and how she learned that everything that washed up on her beach could be used for the growth of her soul. The needs she felt as a cancer patient motivated her to found the non-profit, Healing Journeys, and produce the Cancer as a Turning Point, From Surviving to Thriving conference that inspired over 25,000 people over a period of 25 years. While living and surviving are important, to thrive is our greater potential that is achievable when we resist being restricted by fear.

About this title

About the Author

As a survivor of three primary cancers (breast cancer in both breasts and ocular melanoma) and multiple recurrences, Jan has experienced cancer as a chronic disease since 1989. Her background as co-director of the Center for Health Awareness taught her that there is more to healing than chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery. Wanting to help cancer patients/survivors focus on healing the whole person instead of just curing the body, she created the Cancer as a Turning Point, From Surviving To Thriving(TM) conference. She is the founder and director of Healing Journeys, a non-profit formed to produce this conference, which was offered nation-wide free-of-charge to over 25,000 participants for 25 years. Jan continues to thrive in spite of her cancer metastasizing to her lungs in 2011.
