5.0 out of 5 stars Helping Patients Cope with Illness, August 30, 2011
This review is from: The Healing Force: How laughter, love and positive thinking can save your life [VHS] (VHS Tape)
"The Healing Force" is an extraordinary video about an extraordinary person dealing with a serious health condition. Norman Cousins became famous for his book "Anatomy of an Illness" in which he described his self-help program to deal with debilitating arthritis. Several years later, he had a serious heart attack - "The Healing Force" documents how he dealt with this. It shows the life style changes Mr. Cousins made to reduce cardiac risk factors, and the ways in which he interacted with physicians. Most of all, it shows the many ways in which a person with a "can do" attitude can cope with a serious health problem. As a physician who treats chronic pain patients, I often encounter patients who have failed multiple therapies and have no idea what they or the medical community can do to improve their situation. I have often recommended "The Healing Force" to them, because it gives them a positive role model, and drives home the message that patients can do better if they play an active role in coping with their pain problems.
