Book excerpt: "How do I deal with this fear?" You've just learned that you have cancer. Once the shock wears off, your new reality sets in. The fear is overwhelming. You're reminded over and over again that you need to have a positive attitude. You put on a brave face and try to think positively. But, fearing the worst, it's nearly impossible. It Begins with Belief challenges the idea that you must simply think positively and offers a more practical approach to dealing with your fear. This book will: * Provide a step-by-step roadmap to overcoming your fear. * Address difficult questions such as, "If all I can think about is dying, isn't that what will happen?" and "How can I be optimistic when I'm consumed by uncertainty?" * Help you get to the root of your fear by exploring your beliefs about cancer, healing, and love. * Show you how to challenge your fear-based beliefs and create new, empowering beliefs based on fact. * Prove this truth: If your body creates cancer, it can heal cancer, too! It's not about thinking positively. It's about believing positively! Sound impossible? This book will show you how. "With Jill's intelligence, compassion, and medical knowledge, she was the perfect survivor mentor. She has taken the stories and insights and written a factual, but uplifting book that will help cancer survivors and caregivers, alike." Kristy Zane, American Cancer Society, Reach to Recovery Coordinator A word from the Author: When you hear the words, "You have cancer," it's normal to feel afraid. Faced with a serious illness, fear represents your very strong instinct to survive. However, if you don't consciously address your fear, it can create feelings of deep hopelessness. Feeling hopeless is extremely painful. I know this because I have been in those shoes. Eleven years ago, I was diagnosed with an aggressive recurrence of breast cancer. More than anything else--the chemo, the side effects, and the loss of my breasts and hair--my greatest struggle was dealing with the fear. When you are very scared and convinced that things "don't look good," the idea of overcoming your fear may seem impossible. My mission is to show you that it absolutely can be done. Whether you follow the guidance in my book, It Begins with Belief, or reach out for one-on-one coaching, I am confident that I can help you. I will guide you through a practical, step-by-step process that will change what you believe is possible with real facts and actions. Together, we will create new experiences, beliefs, and expectations that will give you real hope. Remember, it's not about thinking positively. It's about the power of believing positively!
