How to manage your emotions when faced with the circumstances that touch you

My name is Sandra.

I have led a healthy, active life, healthy food, physical activity, avoiding chemicals and other substances that I discovered throughout my studies and readings that were harmful to the body.

I led my daily life with a certain lightness and a feeling of knowing that being so healthy I would be in control of my "health".

When I was almost 59 years old, I discovered a nodule in my right breast that immediately led me to studies and thus began this new stage of my life.

That's right, after studies it was declared to be cancerous, a term that I did not integrate in me.

This could not be happening, it was a huge mistake. .... I even told the doctor that I was not going to do anything about it and I thanked him for his attention.

At home, calmly... I said to myself "did this just happen to you?" and so I started to see how I was going to deal with this situation.

I decided that everything had to be done in stages, that they would let me integrate the information little by little and that they would give me the time to accompany it with alternative therapies.

I did the studies very calmly; giving myself the time I needed to be informed of the results before moving on to other more intense studies. This calmness was little understood by those around me.

When all the studies were finished, I decided to make 2 consultations to other hospitals and thus to see what was proposed to me and to have the reins of what was done.

I opted without hesitation for the third hospital and its proposal.

After the operation and after studying the tissue, another piece of information was added: "I had to undergo chemotherapy". This was not in my mind.

It was hard for me to integrate it and accept it. But I decided to follow the protocol as indicated, only that I consulted again with the other hospitals and decided to follow the option that seemed more appropriate and less invasive.

At the same time, the follow-up with my homeopath and my nutritionist were the perfect pillars to carry out the treatment.

I integrated Biodecodification talks and other therapies to understand the emotional meaning of this stage.

I decided that this adventure would be just one more and that I didn't need to add "Drama" to it.

So, I started to prepare my cold gel shells to maintain my hair, I bought a second hand freezer, I prepared my essential oils, my purifying herbal teas, my clays, gels and everything that was being integrated to my nutrition according to my guides.

I integrated salt baths after the session to cleanse by osmosis the chemical product.

I can proudly say that I went through it without major side effects, I always listened to my external and internal guides. So I spent 6 months with an almost normal life, yes of course sometimes more tired, but I was motivated to get out of bed, get dressed and go for a walk, sometimes the walk was short other times I walked about 2 hours ....

The immense happiness after 6 months of chemo was incredible, my friend made me a surprise lunch with friends and my children. A lot of emotion, and a lot of pride.

Then the radiotherapy began, which I followed rigorously every day "5 out of 7", for a month.

I changed the schedules for the end of the day so I could go to my gym class every day and not feel tired .... and if I felt tired it was already the night. When the weather was nice I would walk to and from the clinic, that is an extra hour of walking per day.

It is true that the body suffers, with burns and even sores, but this is temporary, I decided to continue going through the experience with great strength and courage, without integrating tragedy to my situation.

Today I can say that everything helped a lot, all the parallel alternative therapies, but above all the inner strength of each one, that confidence in the self, and above all that we do not control anything in life, and that what makes us feel better is FAITH.

I did visualizations, sound therapy, breathing therapy in each of the chemotherapy and radiotherapy.

I made it a habit to take a picture of myself with my cold helmets on and dressed almost like an Eskimo to withstand the cold in my hair, hands and feet, and send it to my friends and family.

I feel that even the medical staff was amazed by my good mood, my energy, and my optimism.

I decided that I would live it without drama and so I did and this I believe is the key to the results, and knowing that God has the last word.

That we don't control anything, but we can control ourselves, pamper ourselves.

This situation gave me a new perspective on my life, an incredible confidence that I had never felt before, because if I can go through this with such strength, I can go through any situation that comes my way.

It gives us a chance to look at our own life and start being grateful for very simple things. Not that I didn't before, but not in this way. Such a different perspective that I don't think can be explained.

To live a life with lightness and happiness... although there are still moments of doubt, sadness, worry and fear, but they do not stay there... they pass.

The important thing is to be able to follow this path supporting others who are there and accompany them so that they can go through it as well as possible.

I continue my studies and my controls with confidence.

God is with me.

I have faith.
