The Healing Journey

The Healing Journey is a progressive, stepwise program for cancer patients interested in doing more to help themselves, as an addition to conventional medical treatment.

The Healing Journey is a comprehensive discussion of what people with cancer can do to respond to the illness, explaining the potential of different avenues from conventional medicine and the role of diet to psychological and spiritual approaches. Alastair Cunningham writes not just as a scientist but also as someone who has had cancer himself. While cancer can of course be a very frightening experience, he suggests that it can also give people an impetus to develop a new worldview and a new experience of life that can be deeply satisfying. This revised edition also includes contributions from Dr Claire Edmonds and Petra Griffiths describing how the Healing Journey programme, a structured approach towards creating spiritual and psychological healing, has developed in Canada and the UK. Dr Alastair J Cunningham was Professor of Medical Biophysics and Psychiatry at the University of Toronto up to his retirement. He has developed the Healing Journey programme to help cancer patients to help themselves through learning practical coping skills and developing psychological and spiritual wellbeing. In 2003 Dr Cunningham was named an officer of the Order of Canada for his service to cancer patients. In 2007 he was co-winner of the first Roger's Prize for Excellence in Complementary and Alternative Medicine.

The Healing Journey offers a startling analysis of intimate partner abuse and its negative effects on women’s earnings, education and vocational training as well as in the labour market itself. Victims of abuse often suffer from chronic physical and mental health issues, which impede their participation in the labour market. Based on findings from a seven-wave study coordinated by RESOLVE, a family violence research centre housed in universities across the prairie provinces, the goal of this book is to advance a social scientific understanding of women’s employment status and barriers to participation, occupations, household income sources and vocational training outcomes over the course of a woman’s journey to heal from intimate partner abuse.
