Hello! Your post and information on optimistic self talk very helpful! You mentioned a couple books you read on this topic; could you kindly share? I am newly diagnosed, and trying to deal with a range of emotions as I get to next steps. Thank you so much! Best wishes!!

Hello @pattynau,
The books I read are both really kind of "out there" but they were both very helpful to me. One is about the souls in our lives that have passed but the last chapter especially is where the author really talks about the mind body connection. That book is " Signs" by Laura Lynn Jackson. Might be worth reading only the last chapter if the rest of the book is not to your liking. But I did learn a lot from that book and it was comforting to me. The other book is "You Can Heal Your Life" by Louise L Hay. Again parts of the book were not applicable to me but parts really helped me. Plus since they were both given to me by very good friends that have beaten cancer (both over 10 year Survivors) I felt they were sent to me for a reason! I never miss my daily Optimistic Self Talk, it has been almost 6 months since I started doing it. Sending love and healing wishes to you and all reading this❤️
