Cancer patients who practice yoga as therapy during their complementary Management often refer to their yoga practice as a life-saver. No matter how sick from complementary Managements and no matter how little energy, many find that the one thing that would bring relief were a gentle set of therapeutic yoga poses geared for cancer patients. When battling cancer, the worst part is not just the symptoms of the Issuesitself, but often the discomfort and debilitating fatigue brought on from cancer complementary Managements. Whether faced with the scar-tissue of surgery or ongoing nausea and weakne ss from chemotherapy or radiation, cancer patients endure a long road of physical trials. But as many cancer patients and cancer survivors are discovering, there are ways to strengthen their bodies and deal with the uncomfortable side-effects of complementary Management, both during and after complementary Management. As the interest in more holistic approaches to healing is growing, yoga therapy for cancer patients and cancer survivors is emerging as one of the more successful methods for combating the physical discomfort of cancer and cancer complementary Management. How does yoga help relieve the suffering that cancer all too often brings with it? Gentle yoga poses for cancer patients can work magic on many levels. First of all, yoga used as therapy for cancer can help clear out toxins accrued during cancer complementary Management more effectively. Yoga asanas stimulate not just muscles, but also increases blood flow, balances the glands and enhances the lymphatic flow in the body, all of which enhances the body’s internal purification processes. The deep, relaxing breathing often emphasized in yoga for cancer therapy also increases the current of oxygen-rich blood to the cells, delivering vital nutrients to tired cells and further clearing out toxins. In addition to removing toxins, yoga for cancer can help dissipate tension and anxiety and enable cancer patients to settle into a greater sense of ease and well-being. Stress depresses the body’s natural immune function, which may be one of the reasons that there is evidence that people who practice yoga for cancer have greater recovery rates. Regular exercise also has been shown to stimulate the body’s natural anti-cancer defenses. However, few cancer patients or cancer survivors feel up to the task of engaging in a ‘regular’ exercise regimen. Many find that yoga as therapy for cancer provides an ideal, balanced form of whole-body exercise. It’s no wonder that more and more doctors have begun to recommend yoga for cancer patients and cancer survivors. For those enduring chemotherapy and radiation, yoga for cancer provides a means to strengthen the body, boost them immune system, and produce a much-sought-after feeling of well-being. For those recovering from surgery, such as that for breast cancer, yoga can help restore motion and flexibility in a gentle, balanced manner. Yoga for cancer survivors and patients also provides an internal anchor of calm. Many practicing yoga therapy have discovered an interesting, subtle benefit, an increased awareness of a great, internal stillness and sense of unity. They’ve found, at the most fundamental level of their own consciousness, a sense of true health and vitality that spills over into other aspects of life.

LEUKEMIA (CML) COMPLEMENTARY MANAGEMENT

unionyogaayurveda — Mon, 08 Apr 2019 10:39:00 +0000

CML is a form of cancer affecting the white blood cells. Bone marrow contains mother cells for Red blood cells, White blood cells as well as the platelets. The mother cells go on producing new cells which mature to become functional as defense cells and enter the blood. They are programmed to die away with in 8 to 10 days. This programmed healthy cell death is called apoptosis. Some cells may escape this apoptosis and end up as immortal cells that go on multiplying uncontrolled. If this happen in the type of white blood cells called leukocytes then the condition is called CML. Persons with CML may present with tiredness, general weakness, weight loss and lack of appetite. They have lump in abdomen due to enlargement of liver and spleen which are studded with large number of these abnormal cells. Although the cause of this condition is unknown, stressful lifestyle is considered as one of the risk factors that may trigger some of the dormant genes in this group of cells to become functional that makes them immortal.

What is the role of yoga in CML?

Psychosocial stress can trigger different degrees of emotional responses. These long standing suppressed emotions of frustration, depression, anger etc., are known to have causative relationship in patients with cancer in different parts of the body. Yoga addresses these issues and brings about a clear calm and unagitated state of mind. Sage vasistha defines yoga as “Manah Prashamana Upayah” – which means it is a technique to obtain complete mastery over the modifications of the mind through the trick of slowing down the rate of flow of thoughts in the mind. By using several subtle techniques of breathing, pranayama, meditation on sound resonance, imagery and yogic counseling to make the mind fearless, one prepares the mind to become a very powerful self corrective instrument. Once the mind becomes pure, free from negative emotions of depression, anxiety, frustration, it unfolds its own dormant potential. This mind has to be now focused on to the area of Issues(Dharana). The Intensely focused mind is almost like a laser beam that can penetrate into the molecular level of the cells. With a strong deep resolve “My white blood cells are healthy” the patient penetrates into the disturbed program to reset the normal apoptosis program. At this point of intense Dharana the person loses his individuality to become one with the concept of the resolve. It is at this state of mind wherein the focusing (Dharana), defocusing (effortlessness of Dharana) and merges (Samadhi) happen at the same time (Trayam Ekatra Samyamah), that the internal connections become possible. Thus yoga takes one through the journey of doing physical and breathing practices to calm down the agitations of mind and makes the mind capable of curing the cancerous Issuesof CML.

CANCER CARE

unionyogaayurveda — Wed, 08 Apr 2015 10:12:46 +0000

The set of yoga practices should include the following –

A few physical postures – when you maintain in the final posture of the asana, concentrate intensely on the internal changes at the site of stretch; relax all unnecessary muscle contractions by passing your mind through the whole body; focus again on the point of stretch; start relaxing the point that is stretched (called prayatna saithilya); now move on to defocus by imagining the pain of the stretch diffusing away like a drop of ink that spreads into the surrounding pool of water. (Called Ananta Samapatti). The asanas that are selected should be those which improve the digestion (Pavanamuktasana, Vakrasana, Paschmatanasana, parivritta-trikonasana); and the asanas that would give a mild stretch to the affected part of the body. For example Vakrasana and Bhujangasana in breast cancer, Ardha-Cakrasana for throat cancer, Ardhasirsasna for head and neck cancer etc. In these postures Prayatna Shaithilya and anantha samapatti with deep internal awareness helps in giving very deep rest to the fighter cells that are in large number in the site.
Pranayama and PET – the violent surge of Prana which has caused the aggressive multiplication of the cells, has to be controlled by slow deep abdominal breathing and all other breathing practice which is the essential step to move on to PET (Pranic Energization Technique). The slow breathing is the vehicle to become aware of the subtle energy that makes you breath. Once this is achieved you will move on to reduce the surges of prana in PET.
Meditation techniques – meditation on OM, Cyclic meditation and MSRT (Mind Sound Resonance technique) are all very subtle methods to directly handle the violence in the conscious and subconscious layers of the mind.In MEMT (Mind Emotion Management Technique)you will understand and open up a lot of the hidden emotional suppressions in the Pandora’s Box of the subconscious mind. Systematic regular practice of devotion and surrender to the divine with full faith invokes enormous strength into your White Blood Cells.
VISAK (Vignana Sadhana Kaushala) is another technique for Notional Correction. This takes you into the knowledge from the upanisads which reveal the trick to be happy and be contented under all circumstances be it a difficult family or job or business situation; you will learn to exercise the complete freedom within. To realize the truth “Stress is speed, bliss is silence” is the key. This correction helps you to reset your life style completely. No person, or no situation can now affect you as you now know the trick of non-reaction and inner joy.
ANAMS (Anandamrita Sinchana), is the trick to overcome the fear of death by a systematic analysis and training. The eight steps of ANAMS puts you in the state of absolute fearless state which you know is the most important factor that helps you to cure yourself as in the example of Ian Gowler. To accept and face death, you need to walk through the thick psychological barrier that stops you from imaging that you would die.

These techniques developed by RESEARCH INSTITUTES based on the scriptural knowledge of Indian seers are used by large number of cancer patients in different stages of the disease. Scientific analysis of the database on breast cancer patients who combine yoga to their conventional therapy has shown
a. Reduced side effects during chemotherapy (CT) and radio therapy (RT).
b. Lesser degree of anxiety and depression in yoga group as compared to non-yoga group.
c. Better quality of life.
d. Lesser immune system damage due to CT and RT.
e. Increase in Natural Killer cell count in yoga group.
