Cancer is called the plague of the 21st century. Unfortunately, the disease does not spare neither the young, nor the elderly, nor children. Doctors believe that the disease belongs to psychosomatic diseases, its roots are in stress.
When the “cancer” knocks at the house, not only the patient loses his composure, but also his relatives and friends.
Studies have established the relationship of cancer with the nervous and immune systems. Therefore, the patient's emotional state is unstable. At the very first stage, they behave as infantile as teenagers. Often, under the influence of a protective mechanism, the blame for what happened is shifted to fate, others, relatives and God. Therefore, you need to be near. Relatives themselves need to calm down and get rid of guilt.
Overcoming the pain
Start with relaxation and visualization. With soft music, you can help the patient to relax. From head to toe: nape, eyelids, shoulders, hands, chest, abdomen, hips, knees, feet, and again completely relax the eyelids. When the patient has relaxed, you need to imagine the pain in the form of some object and mentally remove it or reduce it depending on the image.
Further, when the pain is conquered, you need to imagine yourself healthy and energetic. And get out of the state of relaxation. This method gives both physical strength and leads to mental balance. It is important to visualize every day for 10-15 minutes.
Information from the attending physician can support the patient's emotional state: stories about modern methods of treatment, history of recovery.
Create all the conditions for doing what you love, if not, help find a new hobby.
Getting rid of stress
Doctors have found that during stress, vitamin B is consumed in large volumes. Immunity problems arise, hence the lack of vitamins C, A and E. Therefore, it is necessary to take a complex of vitamins, of course, after consulting a doctor.
To overcome stress, the body needs physical activity. Heavy physical activity is not necessary, breathing exercises and walking are enough. The main thing is to do it systematically.
Give the sick person an idea to keep a diary. By recording events, you can easily track down negative thoughts and work to eradicate them. The results of the treatment and the patient's plans will be visible on paper.
The main thing is that the patient's day is filled, there is no room for sadness and pessimism. In your conversations, fill him with positive thoughts, nudge him to think about how he will feel after recovery. He should feel joy on a physical level. Pink burning cheeks, a pleasant trembling in the stomach, a sincere smile, an infectious laugh - everything that he associates with joy.
Present cancer as a test on the path to happiness - a time to reflect on the life lived and start a new one. And happy people don't get sick!
