HOW TO BUILD A HEALING MIND Neuroplasticity, Brain Training and Your Health A terminal or severe medical diagnosis can turn fear into your overlord during a time when your mind should be your most reliable ally, but how do you control your thoughts while you are in the middle of a health crisis? The answer is Brain Training and it can turn your mind into a powerful healing tool with no side effects or toxicity. My name is Cristinha Furtado, I was diagnosed with Stage IV breast cancer in 2013. Cancer cells had spread beyond my original tumor to my lymph nodes and liver, my doctor called it a "death sentence." The fear was overwhelming, but I got curious and started to research, determined to find a non-toxic solution to my situation. It didn't take long for me to realize how the medical/pharmaceutical industry uses fear to sell more drugs. I experienced the role nutrition plays in healing. But the most critical factor I discovered was how mindset helps us heal, stay sick or even die. No doctors ever talked about mindset and you probably will never hear about it from your doctor either. I opted out of chemo and radiation, agreeing to only surgery. My decision to break away from the "standard of care" recommended by the medical community ended up saving my life. It was not easy. I learned hard lessons, grew from my experiences, and beat the odds. Today I speak about how to use neuroplasticity and brain training to build a healing mind. Website: Stage4RockStars.org consists of interviews with other Stage IV survivors who are now thriving. It's possible. Their insights and wisdom provide valuable perspectives as to how they accomplished a journey that was never their choice, yet they had to make.
