PurposeThe purpose of this conference is to educate, inspire, connect and celebrate

all whose lives have been touched by cancer or any life-altering illness.

• Cancer or any life-altering illness can be viewed as both a curse and a blessing.

• If viewed simply as a disease of the body, it is experienced only as a curse.

• When we view illness in the context of the whole person (body, mind, emotions

and spirit), we see its transformative potential, as an awakening for the soul

and spirit. Only then can we see it as a blessing and ulitize its gifts.

Who Should Attend• Women and men touched by cancer or any life-altering illness

• Healthcare providers

• People supporting friends or family touched by cancer or other illness

Conference Objectives• Differentiate between curing the body and healing the person

• Explore illness as an awakening with transformative potential

• Rediscover the healing capacity of the human spirit

• Facilitate healing from within as an essential component of total health

• Experience the physical and emotional benefits of group support

• Incorporate stories, music and laughter as part of the healing process

• Discover the impact of psycho-social and spiritual beliefs on the immune system

• Facilitate networking among people and organizations with common goals

and concerns
