Cancer

Diagnosed with Cancer? Don’t know what to do next? Traditional or alternate therapies? Perhaps consider all of the options.

The Founder of Fountainhead Organic Retreat Wayne Parrott, originally decided to build Fountainhead after his mother Margaret’s fight with cancer many years ago. Multiple myaloma was the type and the best prognosis was three years. He started reading and searching for answers with her and was amazed and what little balanced information he could find. She attacked her illness using a low fat “Pritikin Style” diet, a little exercise, (Walking) meditation, (through prayer) and like all patients a huge faith in her specialist. Mum lived for 13 years which at the time and for the illness was a considered a success. What mum learnt along the journey was invaluable to herself and her family. To quote Margaret, “The best thing that ever happened to me was cancer”.

Wayne was also diagnosed with cancer in 2005 and it metasized earlier this year, (May 2010) when Wayne’s first prognosis was 90 days. Wayne continues to learn from his cancer and currently is in great health, (approaching 200 days by Xmas). Wayne travelled to a personalised oncology clinic in Germany for his treatment after recomendation from a Fountainhead guest, where a seven centimetere tumour in his lung that threatened his life was reduced to less than 3cm and with only half of its original activity, and all with no side affects and an intact immune system. ”I realise there is a long way to go, but I hold real hope though statistically my odds are still quite poor.”

Nutrition and cancer

It never ceases to amaze me how many of our cancer experts admit they do not firstly know what causes cancer and secondly why it propogates in regard to a seemingly unimpaired immune system, (as it often does). Yet when you ask about nutrition and diet, or supplements, or vitamins as adjunct therapy, you sometimes get blank looks, or recently I was giggled at. It seems that ignorance knows no border with rational thought.

It was only forty year ago when Nathan Pritikin was telling everyoone to eat less processed food to help with heart disease and diabetics and now it is common knowldge that what he said was very true

Gerson and Kelly I think are the top two to read. Live food, high enzyme diet. If you have cancer, check your Pancreatic function immeditaly. This could be one of the keys. There are at least six doctors worlwide that i know of so far whom have at least double, and often more our survival here in Australia for cancer treatments.

Here in Queensland at Fountainhead Retreat we focus on the the stress component of cancer as we cover The Fountainhead Method, (the cause of all stress), Mindfullness and Journey Therapy. Probably the top stress management tools in the world today. Also organic, live and health food is the general order. A Cancer stress retreat is great for planning your approach, getting ready or recovering from therapy. There are so many topics to consider when dealing with cancer. Discuss the parts you wish to cover with your Customer Service person when you call.

1. Decision making process

The person must decide to recover and take responsibility for that decision. Tough strategies need to be adopted and the chance of recovery will largely depend upon your work and efforts. Change must take place. Many people find this confronting and the most difficult step on the road to recovery. A retreat is a great time for reflection.

2. Diet and nutrition All food and juices are organic and raw food must be an ever increasing part of your diet. Education is key here and Fountainhead presents a Raw Food School each fortnight. We need to move from a sodium system to a pottasium system and move your pH from acid to alkaline. I strongly recommend Pancreatic enzymes and Vitamin D.

3. Detox

Initially if the patient is strong enough juice fasting regimes can be considered to Detox. We show you a three day detox on your visit which you can extend for up to seven days.The Far Infrared sauna is complimentary and helps detoxing heavy metals. Our Turkish Steam Room also helps with sweating it out. As the body temperature rises, the cancers defenses are weakned. In Europe Hypothermia chambers are used-illegal in Australia. Body brushing and dental hygience critical. Perhaps a day for colonics or learn how do do a cofee enema, (extras).

4. Philosophy - stress

We examine the concept of a life belief system. We look for which area of inaccurate philosophy are contributing to the health issue by way of stress. You will learn all about The Fountainhead Method and Journey Therapy is included in all 28 day programs.

5. Cause of disease-psychosomatics

Firstly we attempt to accurately identify what may have has contributed to the cancer from an incorrect belief system point of view. Mind Body is the approach used most effectively here. If only staying for 14 days you will need to also book a Life coach as an extra. Included in 28 day programs.

6. Light exercise

Small amounts of aerobic exercise provide a positive underpinning to the entire program, (when possible). Our walking, (Rainforest, waterfalls and beaches) Yoga classes-beginner along with use of the Natural Hot Spring Baths help set the body up to play its part in your recovery. Our setting in Maleny is magnificent for such activities.Gerson program followers are allowed to refrain from exercise as they advise.

7. Physical therapies

From massage therapy to reflexology, Detox Mud wraps to full on pampering and play, all our therapies are designed to aid the body in recovery and keep the endorphins flowing.

8. Meditation:

Here we teach and explain values and protocols of Mindfullness meditation. We practice in a variety of settings.Another great too for stress and stress management.

9. Laughter:

Norman Cousins the famous American healer along with Patch Adams were two great believers in “Laughter as the best medicine.” At Fountainhead we include a session of laughing Yoga. Must be expereinced to be believed. Again an anti stress focus.
