After losing her husband to a very rare form of cancer and being diagnosed herself with stage III breast cancer and having 16 out of 18 lymph nodes removed, Linda knew it was time to learn more about integrative health, nourishing the body, spirit and mind, to heal and treat herself – simply to survive.

Linda specializes in the alkaline/acidic effects on the body, truly defining healthy eating that is crucial for those who have been diagnosed with cancer. Her practice incorporates integrative lifestyle counseling and the Healing Arts Techniques of Jin Shin Jyutsu, Healing Touch, and Raindrop Therapy. Her philosophy is that optimal health is achieved by bringing balance and harmony to mind, body and spirit, starting at the cellular level.

Listen to this podcast to learn her philosophies and what has kept her cancer free for 15 years.

3:14 They thought I would have a reoccurrence within five years and possibly a lifespan of nine. It’s now 15 years and I’ve watched my three children grow up. There was a lot of stress so I think that had a lot to do with it because there was nothing in my family tree.

3:36 I was so grateful and luck

3:36 I was so grateful and lucky to have found Dr. Susan Silberstein. She was my lifeline. Through her books, her website and her teachings I found that I wanted to take her class (Holistic Cancer Coaching Course) and realized with this toolbox of information that I had I wanted to share it with others.

4:22 I just wanted to help people so I went to nonprofit organizations. A lot of people can’t afford to pay $250 an hour for a nutritionist. I did a lot of nonprofit work and since 2010 have counseled over 800 people.

4:55 I will always be grateful to her (Dr Susan Silberstein) and her teachings and what she’s brought to the cancer community itself.

5:36 She (Dr Susan) lead me onto the path of not only wanting to help others, but realizing that you can have your nutrition and do the right things and feed your body and food as medicine, but then life hits you and stress and just so much that goes on that are cells as energy react to that puts us in a bad spot. That’s why I started to learn about Jin Shin Jyutsu, healing energy medicines, herbs, crystals, sound healing.

8:58 I’m a mobile office essentially because then I can offer my services at very low cost.

9:44 I took the path less traveled and found that it’s been a very good path.

10:05 I wrote Survolve. I never like the word survivor because I believe we survived, yet we evolve and that’s where that came from.

12:13 with Dr. Susan‘s meal plan, you can fill that out and look at foods that you’re eating and replace them and eliminate others.

15:03 You really need a coach and some tools and someone to follow you. You need that kind of support because that’s a big lifestyle change and it’s overwhelming to just get the diagnosis. Coaches can bridge the gap between the medical community and alternative options and what’s available is tremendous.

16:55 Energy therapies are so important. Meditation and anything that can take your mind off that problem. Something as simple as writing something down and burning it. A ritual to make you feel better and say, OK that’s gone. On to the next thing.

17:35 I have found that being grateful, and also a little mantra I found when I was diagnosed, that someone has it worse. So let me be thankful for what I do have.

18:57 Her website www.kitchenchemotherapy.com explains her services and has recipes, education and resources.

Kerry Hardy is passionate about helping people heal through alternative and non-pharmacological modalities that treat the mind-body-spirit connection. She specializes in dealing with cancer and hospice, and uses her expertise as a Reiki Master, Pranic healer, certified crystal healer, doTerra wellness advocate, and aromatherapist to raise vibration so the body is not hospitable to cancer.

Kerry is a member of Beat Cancer’s Medical Advisory Panel and is also certified as a Beat Cancer Holistic Cancer Coach.

1:48 Working as a hospice nurse and working with cancer patients in the Yale community, we had cancer patients that would graduate and not transition to hospice and some of that did not. So I learned an awful lot through my patience of what works and what didn’t.

2:16 I also found Reiki energy work on my personal journey and that really help me tune in to who I was and what I needed for my own healing.

2:29 That big package of holistic mentality of the mind, the body and the spirit started to come together for me as I was working with patients and seeing those who could connect and those who didn’t. There really was a difference there in the success rates of those who healed.

3:37 there’s chemo and there’s radiation and surgery and there’s a place for all of them at the right times if that something that’s really going to work for you. But if it doesn’t resonate with you it’s something to really sit and turn into and search for other options.

4:09 When we start talking about the mind and the mental thought patterns and your energy field it all sounds crazy, but it’s not because we are energy. Everything is energy and everything is a different frequency.

4:27 what you really need to do is raise your vibration to a healing frequency so disease can dissipate.

5:48 I love essential oil‘s and they all have different frequencies. Frankincense is 147 this helps raise your vibration.

6:19 frankincense has been shown in labs to destroy a mutated DNA cell.

6:35 Myrrh has been shown to inhibit damage cells by getting into the RNA and not letting it replicate again.

7:08 to boost your immune system there’s oil’s such as cinnamon and clove.

7:31 crystals are another beautiful way to raise your vibration. They actually have energy and you can learn to work with them and utilize the energy.

8:44 Reiki is a Japanese method of bringing in source energy, whatever you believe source that is, God or spirit or the universe.

11:30 The neatest thing is that it works distantly because we are all connected. It’s really not this crazy idea that people like to label it.

14:21 there is no cookie-cutter recipe for healing and getting to the root cause and the root problem of why you got cancer in the first place is huge.

17:58 Love is healing in itself and we know that but we don’t talk about it.

Five Time Cancer Survivor, Dr. Marilyn Joyce, Takes Us On Her Journey from Having 2 Weeks to Live to Being Known as, The Vitality Doctor

Dr Marilyn Joyce has the unique combination of being a Registered Dietician, as well as having a PhD in psychology. She is an internationally renowned author, educator, speaker and trainer, and was the Director of Nutrition for the Cancer Treatment Centers of America. She has appeared on many TV shows, including Leeza, Jenny Jones, Montel Williams and Maury Povich.

She is the author of several unique, inspiring and comprehensive books, including her best selling books, Five Minutes to Health, I Can’t Believe it’s Tofu, The Original Hollywood Celebrity Diet, Instant E.N.E.R.G.Y.: The 5 Keys To Unlimited Energy and Vitality and The Stress To Success Formula: Transform Your Life, Career and Business Now!She is known as the Master of 5-minute healthy strategies and tips that anyone can do anywhere, anytime. Marilyn’s slogan is, 5 Minutes…5 Times A Day…Instant Energy & Maximum Stress Release Guaranteed!

At the height of her career, and only 35 years old, she was diagnosed with melanoma, and then stage 4 uterine cancer. She went in and out of cancer for 5 years, until she found herself in a wheelchair at 88 lbs with a 2 week prognosis.

Listen to learn about Marilyn’s turning point, her miracle weekend, and how 1 year later she ran a mile!

5:39 In 1989, at 88 pounds and in a wheelchair unable to eat or drink anything, the only thing I could do was suck on ice chips.

6:15 I survived childhood abuse and I was a runaway at 14 so there was a lot of this underneath that I survived and I think it gave me the strength that I wasn’t going to quit.

7:02 The turning point happened at a home my daughter took me to after being given two weeks to live. At a Vitamix demo, I was given cantaloupe, including the seeds and I didn’t throw up.

9:03 I was dragged off to another program with Dr. Bernie Siegel with 900 people in the audience. At a break Dr. Siegel came over and asked me what was going on. I told him, and he asked me if I’d ever done a gratitude journal.

11:53 Dr. Siegel said, what you focus on is what expands, and literally I focused on what I was grateful for. So I got a lot more to be grateful for, including 30 years more on planet earth.

12:48 It became apparent that I had survived beyond my two week prognosis. And if I could do that maybe I could do it longer.

14:40 One year later I ran a mile. It took me 30 minutes. There was hope. They told me stage four uterine cancer would come back so I figured I’d take a trip. I drove to New Mexico and my world became an open world.

17:53 My first book, 5 Minutes to Health, was dedicated to Dr. Bernie Siegel.

19:31 Dr. Siegel had said to me, do you see cancer as your friend?

20:01 He said, "What if you thought of cancer as a teacher? What do you think will be trying to teach you?"

22:04 Let go and let God

22:10 Have fun, laugh, be with friends, be social. Work is not everything.

22:39 If you don’t like what you’re doing quit. Find something you’re passionate about. We didn’t come to this earth to be unhappy and struggle.

24:27 I have an expression that I say, take five to say five and what that means is take five minutes to say five years because I lost five years to cancer.

25:37 Make time and just put on the music, set the timer and start breathing in a rhythmic pattern. Breath in for 4 seconds, hold for 4, and out for 4.

26:46 Whatever comes up release it, because that’s how we learn to release stress by letting things come up, dealing with it, and releasing it.

27:14 Take it to the next step. Earthing or grounding is just taking off your shoes and socks and walking in the earth, sand, or grass. And do the same breathing pattern for five minutes or longer. Research shows sticky blood platelets all stuck together, in five minutes of doing this and the breathing they all separate and go their merry way and blood flow is way better and nutrition gets into your cells more easily.

30:18 People spend 90% of their time indoors right now and that’s not the way people lived in the old days. We need to get out and reconnect to nature, hug a tree, listen to the birds and walk every day and stop and smell the roses.

31:18 We get stuck behind a desk and my philosophy is, every hour get up and get off your seat and on your feet and do something different. Changing your state is critical and regenerates your spirit and your physical body at the same time.

39:29 5 keys to unlimited energy and vitality. The E is for, Exhale fully first so you can inhale fully. The N is for nutrition. The second E is for exercise for cellular rejuvenation. The R is for rest, relax, and rejuvenate. The G is for gratitude. And the Y Is for making it yours and what works for you because there are hundreds of strategies.

Joseph Brown founded the Carla Rose Foundation in honor of his late wife, Andrea Carla Frasier-Brown and his late mother, Ruby Rose Brown. This non-profit foundation raises money for people seeking alternative treatment and provides payment assistance to alternative care clinics. Joseph started this foundation because he felt his wife’s traditional treatment was debilitating and that there must be a better way to heal. He also wanted to reduce the stress of the financial burden on people trying to heal from cancer.

Joseph is also opening his first wellness center in Spartanburg South Carolina on September 30, 2019. It will be open to prevention seekers as well as anyone with a diagnosis of cancer or any other health issue. They will be providing many services including nutrition counseling, juicing, cooking demonstrations, lifestyle modification seminars, stress relief technique education, yoga, massage, spa and relaxation services, meditation, and art classes through their partnership with the Chapman Cultural Center. They are having a fundraising gala August 17, 2019 at the Chapman Cultural Center to raise funds for the opening of the wellness center. 

Joseph is using the education he received through Beat Cancer’s Certified Holistic Cancer Coaching course to headline the wellness center. We are so happy to help Joseph provide such needed services.
