Finding Calm Amid The Chaos: Sandra Russell's Journey Through Cancer With Mindfulness
Manage episode 440838154 series 3572898
In this episode, I had an incredibly moving conversation with Sandra Russell, a former psychotherapist and author of "The Feeling of Cancer".
Diagnosed with multiple myeloma, Sandra faces a relentless battle with an incurable cancer, which has pushed her to reevaluate life's priorities, embrace mindfulness, and navigate the complex layers of emotional health and self-care.
Her profound insights into self-compassion, the nuances of empathy versus sympathy, and the importance enjoying simple pleasures and personal indulgence over the manic pursuit of bucket-list activities make this episode a must-hear for anyone dealing with a cancer diagnosis.
Sandra shares here complete story in her book "The Feeling of Cancer" which is available in paperback and on Kindle.
