"Survival behavior relates to one's personality characteristics. Corinna's book shares many of these factors and makes them easy to understand because she is a native who has lived the problem and can share her experience. It is real and practical and useful for those confronting cancer and other problems." Bernie Siegel, MD author of Faith, Hope & Healing and 365 Prescriptions For The Soul. With humor and insight, we follow Corinna from MD Anderson to Tijuana, Mexico as she navigates the world of cancer treatment, allowing us into her thoughts as she learns to embrace the present moment. Body introduces us to Corinna, her diagnosis, and conventional chemotherapy. The second part, Mind, shows the explosion of fear and turmoil that override her reality as she decides to move forward with alternative cancer treatments. Finally, in Spirit, the cancer treatment and processes become secondary as peace is recognized and sought. Corinna's extensive use of footnotes instigate a meta-conversation with work of such luminaries as Eckhart Tolle, Dan Millman, Bijan, Bernie Siegel, and Louise Hay.
Corinna works in the world of food justice and sustainability.
She works with food for a variety of very good environmental, social, and health reasons but most importantly she works with food because she LOVES to eat!
