Don’t Fight Your Cancer; It Will Just Make it Worse!

Did your mother ever tell you, “Don’t pick your spots; it will just make them worse”?
Well this is more or less what I want to tell you about cancer — don’t fight your cancer; it will just make it worse!

We seem to be living in a society that fights everything; that sees adversaries everywhere that promotes fighting as a solution to every problem.
Trouble in other countries? Send in the army.

Too much crime? Fight it.
Terrorism? Declare a war on it.

On television, in books and newspapers and in movies people are always fighting; it just wouldn’t be a story without a good fight!

Our legal system is adversarial, our political system is adversarial and our commerce system is adversarial.

So when it comes to our health system is it any wonder that it is adversarial also? Doctors battle diseases, patients struggle against their conditions and cancer sufferers put up a determined fight.

On the internet you can find organisations that vow to stamp out cancer, to kick it’s but, there’s even a group called people against childhood cancer.

But is all this oppositional attitude helpful? Can we fight cancer and win? Can it be beaten?

If you look at the results of our oppositional attitude within society, it just seems to be creating more suffering, intolerance and environmental degradation because when we fight amongst ourselves, we are really just fighting ourselves. Nobody wins a war.

When we begin to fight against our bodies, or aspects of our bodies, it becomes even more apparent that we are fighting against our self and the result is frustration, exhaustion and death.

I have known many cancer sufferers who had a strong will to live and put up a good fight; sadly, it didn’t seem to help them much.

The trouble with fighting cancer is that you are fighting an aspect of your body, which is an aspect of your self. Has beating yourself up ever been a good strategy?

Cancer is not an alien invasion. It’s not an attack form an outside source. It’s an inside job.

If you have cancer, those cells are part of your body and they have manifested in your life for a reason.
What could have caused some of your cells to become misaligned and apparently oppositional to the healthy working of your body?

Could it be that they are the embodiment of all the misalignment and oppositional thoughts, behaviours and stresses of your life?

Once cells have become cancerous, they are no longer listening to the chemical and energetic messages of your body. They can grow unchecked until thy cause death by either using up the body’s resources or interfering with necessary functions.

Or, they can be brought back into alignment by the body’s immune system.

Opposing cancer is just adding more conflict to an already conflicted situation and it only makes things worse, especially if you consider that anger, fear and aggression cause the body to release adrenaline – which suppresses T cells – a necessary component of your immune system.

If you have manifested cancer, like I did, then you are probably resisting and opposing some aspects of your life, like I was.

Instead of opposing you body, realise that it is trying to heal you. Your body has been supporting you ever since you appeared on this planet. It naturally does what is needed for you to grow, not just physically, but also to grow emotionally and spiritually.

You body has not turned against you. It is not punishing you. It is not your enemy.

Your body is, in its simple and natural wisdom, responding to your life. Responding to the chemical and energetic indicators of stress and misalignment that the cumulative stress of you life is creating. This stress can be coming from environmental pollution, an unhealthy diet, alcohol and tobacco, financial stress, work stress, relationship stress, injurious beliefs, unhealed emotional issues like sexual abuse, a continuous low-level state of anger and fear etcetera etcetera.

So what are you resisting in your life? What are you opposed to? How do you feel trapped? How much anxiety and anger do you live with?

Have you noticed that some of these things have suddenly been improved since you became sick?

What issues have you been able to avoid now that you have cancer?
Are you relieved that you no longer have to go to work?
Is your relationship suddenly more loving and supportive?

Notice how your cancer is healing your life.

The answers to these questions will show you a way forward. Listen to your body and take action to improve conditions in your life and you body will respond with health.

Thank your body. Thank the cancer cells for alerting you to the intolerable conditions of your life and for creating a solution.

You can choose to pursue a cure through medical or alte
ative treatment but if you are not prepared to also explore the underlying life-stresses that were contributing to the creation of your cancer, then you could be missing out on an opportunity to make the most of your experience.

You can change your life by dieing or you can change it by listening to the messages of your cancer and deciding to make your world, inside and outside, a more peaceful, life-promoting place.
