[DVD] Fight For Your Life by Bernie Siegel, M.D.
About the Movie
"Fight for Your Life" is a must if you, or a member of your family, or a friend or a patient has a debilitating disease such as cancer. In other words, this is a tape we all need. It can change your life in more ways than you might at first realize.
"Fight for Your Life" is filled with concepts and strategies to battle cancer. Properly and assiduously applied, the cancer patient can win that battle. At the very beginning it's advised that the viewers set their own pace with the viewing -- it's a long tape with a strong message and sometimes should be taken in small samplings.
About Bernie Siegel, M.D.
Dr. Siegel, who prefers to be called Bernie, not Dr. Siegel, was born in Brooklyn, NY. He attended Colgate University and Cornell University Medical College. He holds membership in two scholastic honor societies, Phi Be t a Kappa and Alpha Omega Alpha and graduated with honors. His surgical training took place at Yale New Haven Hospital, West Haven Veteran’s Hospital and the Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh. He retired from practice as an assistant clinical professor of surgery at Yale of general and pediatric surgery in 1989 to speak to patients and their caregivers.
In 1978 he originated Exceptional Cancer Patients, a specific form of individual and group therapy utilizing patients’ drawings, dreams, images and feelings. ECaP is based on “carefrontation,” a safe, loving therapeutic confrontation, which facilitates personal lifestyle changes, personal empowerment and healing of the individual’s life. The physical, spiritual and psychological benefits which followed led to his desire to make everyone aware of his or her healing potential. He realized exceptional behavior is what we are all capable of.
