Summary
-
Tenzin has been working and studying over 35 years within the arena of mental well-being and particularly within the field of cancer for over 7 years.
-
This program is designed based on that experience working with 100s of cancer patients and backed up by the extensive research available in this area.
-
The principle rests on the well understood reality that our minds are hugely responsible for both the onset of cancer and the ability to heal from it.While we remain in a state of stress, anxiety, fear, worry and other negative emotions healing is almost impossible. More profoundly than this though we can learn mental techniques to engage the mind with the body and actually bring about or at least enable healing to take place.
-
The program is much more than just a theoretical presentation it has practical techniques to not just understand but integrate the understandings into one’s mind and life. Through meditation and also daily practices/habits that create this.
Structure of the course
-
21 sessions leading from the very basics of training the mind to the most profound and powerful techniques to use the mind in healing
-
Each session consists of 3 parts:
-
A 15-20 minute audio lecture introducing all aspects of the subject within each session. Clients can sit back and listen to the material.
-
A PDF handout summarizing all the points being learnt. Read and gain a deeper understanding of the material.
-
A 15-20 audio meditation on the subject enabling true integration of the material into one’s mind and life.
-
The 21 sessions can be done at the patient’s own pace no need to do every day; sessions should be learnt well before moving on.
