Cancer as a Love Story

Developing the Mindset for Living

A courageous story of a wellness pioneer who used the latest in neuroscience and "energy as medicine" to regain her own health after the devastating prognosis of breast cancer in 2012.

Through her recovery, she teaches readers about one of the most overlooked parts of the healing journey — the emotional process of releasing toxins and internal stressors that may have contributed to disease developing.

"A very compassionate and educational book. A 'must read' for anyone with cancer, anyone who has a family member with cancer, and for healthcare providers. It will change their lives."
— Dr. Ann Webster, health psychologist; former director of the Harvard-affiliated Mind Body Program for Cancer, Massachusetts General Hospital

To Hell and Back…

Healing Your Way Through Transition

Guides baby boomers through four life-altering events: changing careers, motherhood, eldercare, and coping with death. Gail uniquely blends lessons from her own life with more than twelve years of research on the process of change.

The reader learns that it is common — even healthy — to feel a wide range of emotions, from sadness and anger to peace and joy, when faced with major change. If we embrace these emotions instead of fear them, we can move through a life transition into a healthier way of being.

"Gail accurately describes the deeply psychological and spiritual process of change. She teaches the reader that it is the gradual inner shifts — not external circumstances — that lead to greater peace of mind and fulfillment."
— Dijana Winter, M.Ed., psychotherapist and spiritual coach
