DR RYKE GEERD HAMER:
HOW UNRESOLVED EMOTIONAL TRAUMA CAUSES CANCER

One of the most recent studies on psychosomatic cancer therapy comes from Germany. Over the past ten years, medical doctor / surgeon Ryke Geerd Hamer has examined 20,000 cancer patients with all types of cancer. Dr. Hamer wondered why cancer never seems to systematically spread directly from one organ to the surrounding tissue. For example, he never found cancer of the cervix AND cancer of the uterus in the same woman. He also noticed that all his cancer patients seemed to have something in common: there had been some kind of psycho-emotional conflict prior to the onset of their disease - usually a few years before - a conflict that had never been fully resolved. X-rays taken of the brain by Dr. Hamer showed in all cases a dark shadow somewhere in the brain. These dark spots would be in exactly the same place in the brain for the same types of cancer. There was also a 100% correlation between the dark spot in the brain, the location of the cancer in the body and the specific type of unresolved conflict. On the basis of these findings, Dr. Hamer suggests that when we are in a stressful conflict that is not resolved, the emotional reflex centre in the brain which corresponds to the experienced emotion (e.g. anger, frustration, grief) will slowly break down. Each of these emotion centres are connected to a specific organ. When a centre breaks down, it will start sending wrong information to the organ it controls, resulting in the formation of deformed cells in the tissues: cancer cells. He also suggests that metastasis is not the SAME cancer spreading. It is the result of new conflicts that may well be brought on by the very stress of having cancer or of invasive and painful or nauseating therapies.

Dr Hamer started including psychotherapy as an important part of the healing process and found that when the specific conflict was resolved, the cancer immediately stopped growing at a cellular level. The dark spot in the brain, referred to by Dr Hamer as a 'Hamer Herd' shown in the picture below, started to disappear. X-rays of the brain now showed a healing edema around the damaged emotional centre as the brain tissue began to repair the afflicted point. There was once again normal communication between brain and body. A similar healing edema could also be seen around the now inactive cancer tissue. Eventually, the cancer would become encapsulated, discharged or dealt with by the natural action of the body. Diseased tissue would disappear and normal tissue would then again appear. According to Dr Hamer, the real cause of cancer and other diseases is an unexpected traumatic shock for which we are emotionally unprepared.

Hamer Herd Concentric Rings

Of the 20,000 cancer patients reviewed, Dr Hamer discovered every cancer in the body has a different emotional cause. For example, all cancers of the left breast are caused by the individual experiencing an emotional conflict involving the child, home or mother; whereas all cancers of the right breast are caused by the individual experiencing an emotional conflict with the partner or others. This is because each type of psycho-emotional conflict, as found by Dr Hamer, is dealt with by a different part of the emotional reflect centre in the brain that corresponds to a different organ within the body. In nearly all cases, the conflict experienced occurs approximately 2 years prior to the diagnosis of cancer. To discover Dr Hamer's proposed emotional cause for each type of cancer go to: Phase 1 of Cancer: Inescapable Shock

12 Step Cancer Survivor Program

Step 1: Healing the root psycho-emotional cause of cancer

As revealed in the 6 phases of cancer, it is suppressed negative emotions (principally anger, hate, resentment and grief) which cause and continue to fuel cancer at the cellular level. Finding a way to remove these toxic emotions is critical to long term cancer recovery. The 93-page evidence-based thesis, "Psycho-Oncology: The 6 Phases of Cancer", reveals exactly how cancer develops in the body due to the suppression of toxic negative emotions. It is recommended you undertake sessions with an experienced healer of emotions (such as an EFT specialist) who can work with you to permanently remove these toxic emotions. Continuing a daily self-healing program to express and release cancer-causing emotions is also strongly advised and the Cancer Healing Guide is designed for this purpose. The Vipassana meditation technique is also beneficial for releasing toxic emotions. You are also encouraged to explore the link between anger, unforgiveness and cancer and unresolved complicated grief and cancer. The book, "Healing Dis-ease in the Mind of Christ", will help you uncover the spiritual cause of why dis-ease is present. We are aware of illnesses having spontaneously healed during the reading of this book.

Step 2: Systems change (Removing stressful conditions)

As revealed by world-renowned cancer researcher Lothar Hirneise, 100% of all late stage 'miracle' cancer survivors of the hundreds he interviewed had all made dramatic system changes in their life before getting well, and had typically left a highly stressful job or relationship or highly stressful living condition. This is because those diagnosed with cancer have significantly elevated stress hormone cortisol levels, which deplete all-important adrenaline reserves (as outlined in phase 2 of cancer), breaking the cell's Kreb's Citric Acid Cycle, causing cell mutation and cancer. By removing anything in your life that is causing significant stress, this will help to normalize cortisol and adrenaline levels, and thus halt the condition known as cancer.

Step 3: Active relaxing to lower stress cortisol levels

Over many years the typical cancer personality has trained their body to remain rigid and tense in response to life stressors. And when the body is not relaxed the mind will not relax sufficiently enough to enter the deep-sleep-cycle to produce melatonin, which is the primary hormone responsible for inhibiting cancer cell growth. It is this "body stress" which continues to deplete all-important adrenaline reserves in phase 2 of cancer. You should ideally spend 2 hours each day in active relaxation mode to lower stress hormone cortisol levels, which in turn will help restore adrenaline reserves and enable you to enter the deep-sleep-cycle to produce melatonin. Here are some ways to actively relax: sitting amongst nature, walking on the beach, swimming, tai chi, aromatherapy massage, watching funny movies, join a laughter therapy group, holistic pulsing, meditation, deep breathing exercises, lavender oil therapy, and listening to a guided relaxation recording.

Step 4: Using meditation to increase melatonin levels

As revealed in phase 1 of cancer, melatonin is the primary hormone responsible for inhibiting cancer cell growth. It does this by producing interleukin 2 (IL-2) which governs the production of (cancer killing) immune system T cells, B cells, natural killer cells, macrophages and neutrophils. Melatonin is produced in the pineal gland of the brain between the hours of 1am and 3am in the morning during uninterrupted deep sleep. The cancer personality who suppresses for long periods toxic emotions (of anger, hate, resentment, and/or grief) is generally unable to enter this critical deep sleep cycle and therefore becomes depleted of melatonin over time -- one day at a time. Removing the toxic emotions that disrupt deep sleep and lowering stress hormone cortisol levels will naturally correct the problem, however studies have demonstrated meditation can also be used to produce melatonin by stimulating the pineal gland. Consider meditating for 30 minutes per day as part of your 2 hours of daily relaxation.

Step 5: Supporting / boosting the immune system

There are a number of conditions that suppress or weaken the immune system: including high stress hormone cortisol levels, depleted melatonin and dopamine levels, parasites, pathogen microbes (viruses, bacteria, fungus), as well as chemotherapy and radiation. When the immune system is suppressed or weakened, the "cancer fungus" in phase 3 thrives. We recommend you incorporate at least one protocol to support and boost your immune system. High Dose Vitamin C Therapy can be used for this purpose and should wherever possible be used PRIOR to chemotherapy and radiation. Consider also: Fever Therapy, DMG, Lemon Juice Therapy, and Avemar. Note: If you are undertaking chemotherapy or radiation, consider Graviola capsules to prevent side-effects such as hair loss, nausea, and general malaise and energy loss. This natural product also prevents cell-resistance to chemotherapy.

Step 6: Removing the cancer fungus

As revealed by the Holy Spirit of God in phase 3 of cancer, what we know as cancer is in fact seven different types of fungus. When the cancer personality experiences prolonged chronic stress, somatids (tiny microorganisms necessary for life) that live in our body pleomorphise [or change] into yeast-like-fungus to ferment rising glucose and lactic acid in cells. In a healthy person, somatids are limited to 3 stages in their life cycle - somatid, spore, double spore. However, in a highly acidic (low pH) lactic acid environment, somatids pleomorphise into a further 13 stages. These stages include viral-bacterial-yeast-like-fungus forms that: a) migrate to the cell nucleus releasing "mycotoxins" causing cell DNA damage and the mutation of normal cells into cancer cells, and b) ferments the glucose in cancer cells, providing a natural growth factor for cancer and tumor cells to metastasize in the body. For this reason it is recommended you include at least one of the following protocols to remove and keep at bay the cancer-fungus in your body: Apple Cider Vinegar, Garlic, Baking Soda, Essiac Tea, Clarkia, and Hyperthermia.

Step 7: Detoxing the liver and colon of toxins

Those with cancer are typically overloaded with toxins in the key immune system organs of the body: the liver and colon. Toxins include "mycotoxins" or acidic waste products caused by: 1) the cancer-fungus, 2) a poor diet, 3) chemicals, alcohol, tobacco, 4) antibiotics, 5) chemotherapy agents, 6) fermentation of stress hormones, 7) poor exercise regime causing a build-up of lactic acid, and 8) dead microbes, parasites and cancer cells. These toxins build up primarily in the liver -- the master immune system organ. When the liver is overloaded with these toxins, your immune system is weakened and you feel sicker, and cancer and viral-bacterial-yeast-like-fungus thrives. Thus it is very important to have a plan to detox the liver (the master immune system organ), the colon (the intestinal immune system), as well as the gall bladder and kidneys -- especially if you are undertaking a treatment to kill cancer cells or the cancer fungus. If you don't, your liver simply cannot remove all the dead microbes and cancer cells, which remain overloaded in the liver. It is strongly recommended you include a daily treatment plan for detoxing the liver and colon. See Liver-Colon Cleanse for further details. Ozonated Water should be considered also, for it is a superb body detoxifier, but should NOT be used by those with lung cancer or lung conditions.

Step 8: Restoring the Krebs' Cycle with niacin & vitamin C

Cancer can only exist when the Krebs' Citric Acid Cycle of a person's body cells is broken. And this is due to adrenaline depletion (in phase 2), niacin deficiency (in phase 4) and vitamin C depletion (in phase 5), all of which are caused by prolonged chronic stress. Dr Abram Hoffer, the department head of psychiatry at a major hospital in Canada, started using niacin and high doses of ascorbic acid (vitamin C) to treat psychiatric patients and found (by accident) that it also effected a cure in some of his patients with cancer. He subsequently found of 132 patients he treated in his own private practice with advanced stage cancer, 101 patients who followed his program (below) lived on average 16 times longer than the 31 patients who did not or could not follow his program. Dr Abram Hoffer and Linus Pauling presented the following study findings: "Mean survival time for the 31 patients who did not follow the regimen is 5.7 months. Of the others, who did follow the regimen, 20% were poor responders, with mean survival time 10 months, and 80% were good responders, with mean survival time 122 months for 32 patients with cancer of the breast, ovary, cervix, and uterus and 72 months for 47 patients with other kinds of cancer." [Click here to read the full Abram Hoffer/Linus Pauling study and patient survival times.]

Dr Abram Hoffer recommended the following regime to his patients: "The first thing I try to do is to cut their fat way down. So, I put them all on a dairy free program. I reduce, but I don't eliminate, meat and fish, and I ask them to increase their vegetables, especially raw, as much as they can. I think it's a good, reasonable diet, which most people can follow without too much difficulty. Having spent some time with them going over what they ought to eat, I begin to talk about the nutrients. The first one, of course, is vitamin C. The dose is variable. I find that most patients can take 12 grams per day without much difficulty, that's the crystalline vitamin C sodium ascorbate or calcium ascorbate. They take one teaspoon three times per day. If they do not develop diarrhea, I ask them to increase it until this occurs and then to cut back below that level. I think in many cases it would be desirable to use intravenous vitamin C. I also add vitamin B-3, either niacin or niacinamide. I prescribe from 500 mg to 1500 mg per day. I also add a B (vitamin) complex preparation 50 or 100. I think vitamin E is an extremely important anti-oxidant and I use that as well, 800 to 1200 I.U. They also get 25,000 to 75,000 units of beta carotene. I sometimes use vitamin A. (One cup of raw carrot juice contains 36,600 units of beta carotene, which converts to vitamin A). I like to use folic acid for lung cancer, and for cancer of the uterus. I use selenium, 200 mcg, three times per day. I use some zinc, especially for prostatic cancers and I do use calcium-magnesium."

[Note: Sourcing the correct ascorbic acid is important. NutriBiotic Ascorbic Acid 100% Pure Vitamin C 5lb from www.iHerb.com appear to offer the best value bulk pharmaceutical grade crystalline ascorbic acid.]

Step 9: Re-alkalizing the body's natural pH balance

As discovered by Otto Warburg, cancer cells only survive in a low pH highly acidic environment, and this is why those with cancer typically have a low pH of between 4.0 and 6.5pH. This highly acidic environment occurs when the Krebs' Citric Acid Cycle of the cell is broken due prolonged chronic stress depleting all-important adrenaline reserves. As the cell can no longer produce ATP energy via the Krebs' Citric Acid Cycle, the cell instead ferments glucose [to obtain smaller amounts of ATP energy] via the process known as Glycolysis, causing lactic acid levels to rise sharply within the cell. This lactic acid problem is further compounded when the somatid in phase 3 of cancer pleomorphises into the cancer-fungus to ferment rising glucose and lactic acid, itself releasing acidic waste products called "mycotoxins". As cancer cells find it difficult to survive in a high pH alkaline environment of 7.5 or greater, it is therefore essential to: 1) Remove the lactic-acid forming psycho-emotional stress (i.e. toxic negative emotions), 2) introduce alkaline-based foods, and 3) include dextrorotatory lactic acid, which is administered in homeopathic form as prescribed by Dr Waltraut Fryda in phase 2 of cancer.

Step 10: Reversing the subconscious desire to "exit life"

As revealed by the Holy Spirit of God in phase 6 of cancer, cancer manifests as a result of a subconscious wanting to "exit life", caused by the individual feeling overwhelmed by the pain of life and no longer having a strong desire or will to live. This desire to exit life -- experienced not so much consciously, but at the subconscious "feeling level" of the mind -- sends subliminal messages to the immune system to shut down and stop working, enabling cancer cells and the cancer-fungus to thrive. God reveals it is important to examine this subconscious desire to exit life and to see whether 2-4 years prior to diagnosis you felt this way, and to make the decision to re-activate the immune system, by generating an energy of wanting to live that is greater than the energy to exit life. The Cancer Healing Guide will help you examine your will to live in greater depth, and of course, removing the toxic negative emotions (emotional pain) that caused the subconscious desire to exit life is a critical key component.

Step 11: Connecting to God / your Higher Spiritual Self

At Puna Wai Ora, we regularly receive messages from God to guide us in the work we are doing. When we asked what is the best late stage alternative cancer treatment available, the first reply we received was prayer. The Angels spoke of the Lord's Prayer spoken out loud daily - preferably in Latin - was the most effective late stage cancer treatment. They indicated it was important to: 1. Ask God for forgiveness of any wrong-doings, 2. Ask God to fill them with white love and light, 3. Ask for the pain to be diminished in Jesus' name [or another spiritual being you pray to], 4. State "Please bless me with white love and light in Jesus' name and let the healing begin", and 5. Thank God, Jesus and the Angels for their healing and your recovery. These are the words of God delivered by the angels: "God will decide if a miracle happens. They need to connect with themselves more that they are on the right path to awareness of spiritual realms and God. They must believe in God to get through, to have more faith and trust in God. Once they open up, they will be open up in more ways than one. Their pain will not be as intense, they will be comforted."

Step 12: Choosing an alternative cancer treatment

It is important to choose at least one alternative cancer treatment to target and eliminate cancer cells within the body. In most cases you should only need to choose one treatment in addition to the above 11 steps. We highly recommend your alternative cancer treatment include at least one dietary treatment such as the Johanna Budwig Cancer Diet, the Gerson Therapy Cancer Diet, the Bill Henderson Diet Protocol (based on the Budwig diet), or the Brandt Grape Cure. The 42 day organic juice fast known as the Breuss Cure or Breuss Treatment has also been used in the treatment of cancer. Remember, always choose a diet you enjoy that fosters a will to live.

Who survives cancer?
By Lothar Hirniese

After interviewing hundreds of miracle 'late-stage' cancer survivors, world-renowned cancer researcher, Lothar Hirneise, reveals the 3 most important steps they took to survive.

God reveals Cancer is
seven types of fungus

In this extraordinary revelation, the Holy Spirit of God reveals cancer is in fact seven different types of fungus. The Holy Spirit of God also reveals the two natural remedies for reversing this disease at the outer physical level.

God reveals the cancer-fungus is caused by a subconscious wanting to "exit life"

In a further extraordinary revelation, the Holy Spirit of God reveals cancer is caused by a subconscious wanting to "exit life". Healing the mind-body-spirit is thus a crucial step to fostering a will to live.

Glen Russell: The weed that is cancer must be cut off at the root, to ensure it does not regrow. Many cut off the top of the weed (what we see at the surface) by taking physical remedies; but the root of the dis-ease, the spiritual and mental dis-ease, is often left behind.

Restoring the Krebs' Citric Acid Cycle: A two-pronged approach

As the patient makes a sustained effort to cut off the root of the cancer weed (the spiritual and mental dis-ease), this will begin the process of normalising the Krebs' Citric Acid Cycle naturally, through the normalisation of adrenaline levels and niacin and vitamin C levels. Yet this takes time. And if the cancer has progressed to such a point, that as revealed by God in phase 6 of Cancer may be difficult to reverse, the approach taken by Dr Abram Hoffer and Linus Pauling in Step 8 (below) demonstrates that even in a high percentage of late-stage cancer patients, long term survival is possible using simply this outer physical "Krebs" approach. An analogy one could equate is such: The house is on fire (the cancer in the body) and all the conditions for creating the fire are in the process of being removed (in steps 1-4), yet the fire still burns. So a two-pronged approach is often necessary to both contain and stamp out the existing fire, while at the same time removing all conditions that could restart the fire anew.

Dr Lorraine Day, former Chief of Staff of Orthopedic Surgery at San Francisco General Hospital, reveals how after using the Gerson Therapy Cancer Diet for 8-9 months to cure her cancer, without addressing the root underlying psycho-emotional cause, that the cancer came back even more aggressively.

About this
Program

The 12 Step Cancer Survivor Program has been prepared by Glen Russell of Puna Wai Ora Mind-Body Cancer Clinic. It points to critical areas to be considered when one is seeking to reverse the 6 phases of cancer outlined in Psycho-Oncology: The 6 Phases of Cancer.

FAQ

1. Is it necessary to include all 12 steps in this program?

The answer is no. For example, you may address healing the root psycho-emotional cause of cancer (in Step 1) and do this successfully, and combine this with killing the cancer fungus (in Step 6), or with restoring the Krebs' Citric Acid Cycle (in Step 8). If you restore the Krebs' Citric Acid Cycle, this automatically prevents normal cells mutating into the cancer fungus, so in effect Step 6 would not be necessary; although you can do both (Step 6 and Step 8) to super-charge the effect.

Similarly, you could combine Step 1 with a cancer diet (such as the Gerson Therapy Cancer Diet) in Step 12. Both of these steps contribute to eliminating the cancer fungus (in Step 6) and also contribute to normalising pH acid/alkaline levels (in Step 9). Step 1, that is the healing of the root psycho-emotional cause of cancer, also contributes to normalising melatonin, adrenaline and stress hormone cortisol levels, so steps 2-4 are not crucially important if you are already implementing Step 1 correctly.

Deciding which steps to include comes down to personal choice; for not every step of this program is either suitable or well-tolerated; and some of the therapies may present as a contraindication to a patient with a pre-existing condition (such as ozone water should not be consumed by those with lung disease or lung cancer). With that said, one could certainly do all 12 steps of this program (which predominantly are natural therapies) under the supervision of their doctor.

2. Should I undertake chemotherapy / radiation while on this program?

The 12 Step Cancer Survivor Program includes therapies which generally fall under the category of "complementary and alternative medicine" or CAM. For the most part, these therapies support the immune system and the healing process during harsher treatments, such as chemotherapy and radiation. For example, vitamin C is known to protect the immune system during chemotherapy, and hyperthermia is known to increase the effectiveness of radiation.

While there is some anecdotal evidence of survival rates being greater amongst those who do both mainstream medicine and CAM, deciding whether to undertake chemotherapy and radiation remains always a personal choice.

It must also be stressed that Linus Pauling concluded in his research that the effectiveness of high-dose vitamin C was not as effective if used AFTER chemotherapy, versus prior to chemotherapy.

3. Do people recover from cancer on this program?

A number of individuals with late stage cancer who have worked one-on-one with Glen Russell to heal the root psycho-emotional cause of cancer (in Step 1) have entered into complete remission within 2 weeks of having completed their sessions. Some of these patients, including two medical doctors, are mentioned as case studies in Psycho-Oncology: The 6 Phases of Cancer. This, however, does not mean the cancer could not return if the patient does not change their mental outlook, and "re-creates" the psychological conditions that leads to a new bout of cancer.

Apart from these cases who have worked one-on-one with Glen, it is difficult to ascertain the effectiveness of this program, as many combine this program (or parts of it) with other alternative or mainstream therapies.
