The Simonton Cancer Center Patient Programs start with the heart and are based on the successful model for emotional intervention and support which Dr. Simonton pioneered in the treatment of cancer patients.

Dr Hranicky shares a strategy that supports your natural healing process, that brings balance and healing through meeting your unique psychological needs freeing up energy and building your natural life force.

It evolved from the concept that beliefs, feelings, attitudes and lifestyle are important factors affecting health. The program is a five-day educational and psychotherapeutic session for cancer patients and their support person, during which these concepts are explored in a safe, supportive atmosphere conducive to learning and a positive change.

The program focuses on the influence of beliefs and belief systems. Participants learn techniques for enriching their lives in order to promote their health; lifestyle counseling; relaxation and mental imagery or creative thinking exercises. Additionally, participants explore the importance of gentleness, and the role of stress, secondary gain, and other contributing factors to their disease. The issues of recurrence and death are also examined. By delving into these topics through the use of the group process, patients are enabled to implement these methods into their daily lives.

Ten Tenets of the Simonton Cancer Program

Our emotions significantly influence health and recovery from disease (including cancer). Emotions are a strong driving force in the immune system and other healing systems.
Our beliefs and attitudes influence our emotions thereby affecting our health and healing systems.
We can significantly influence our beliefs and attitudes. As a result we shape our emotions, and therefore, significantly influence our health.
Ways of influencing beliefs, attitudes and emotions can be readily taught and learned by using a variety of accessible methods that are presented in this program.
All of us function as physical, mental, social and spiritual/philosophical beings. These aspects need to be addressed in the broad context of healing, with a focus on the particular needs of a person who is ill, and that person’s family, community, and culture.
Harmony is central to health – balance among the physical, mental, and spiritual/philosophical aspects of being. This extends to relationships with self, family, friends, community, planet, and universe.
We have inherent (genetic, instinctual) tendencies and abilities that aid us in moving in the direction of health and harmony (physical, mental, spiritual/philosophical and social).
These abilities can be developed and implemented in meaningful ways through existing techniques and methods that are presented in this program.
As these abilities are developed, proficiency evolves, as when learning other skills. The results is greater harmony and improved quality of life, which significantly impacts one’s state of health.
These skills and insights also change our relationship with death by lessening our fear and pain, and freeing more energy for getting well and living life more fully today.

Understand The Power Of The Secondary Gain In Healing Cancer

with Dr Janet Hranicky Phd

Duration 20:03 min

Through life’s experiences and perceptions we often lose connection with our true nature and become entrapped, imprisoned in the circumstance unconsciously created by our mind. Thankfully our true nature is bigger than words can define and is often revealed through extreme experiences like healing cancer. Many have said that at the time of experiencing cancer they of course didn’t want it, but in hindsight healing cancer has reconnected them with themselves, their family and /or their purpose and has been one of their greatest gifts.

Often the experience of healing cancer has a secondary gain, it allows us to see deeper hidden aspects of ourselves, our family and loved ones.

Families unite, people express love or an individual can find purpose and shine in the light of what is seen to be a tragedy. A key in healing cancer is to understand and recognize those secondary gains, the love that to this point has not been expressed, the compassion, the attention that’s received. Sometimes when this unconscious need is met without recognition and a strategy of how to maintain that love, that connection, that purpose as one moves back into health we can hold onto our illness in fear of losing the secondary gain.

When we connect with the truth of this philosophy, healing cancer is a spiritual, magical experience intended to connect each individual to their purpose.

Dr Hranicky shares insight into healing cancer:

Is mind over matter sometimes reversed?
How important is it to have a purpose to heal?
Do most people think they don’t have problems?
What do you believe purpose is?
Does every problem hold a blessing?

Dr Hranicky says “Cancer in curable now, what are we waiting for? We are always waiting for something else, cancer will be curable when we realise its curable right now!!”

Dr. Hranicky is the Founder and President of The American Health Institute. She has been involved in health care delivery since 1972 when she was doing her internship at The University of Texas, Student Health Center in Austin, Texas. Dr. Hranicky has been a leading pioneer in developing the field of PsychoNeuroImmunology. For the last 25 years, she and her colleague, O.

Scientist like cellular biologist Dr Bruce Lipton author of The Biology of Belief are now providing the scientific evidence that Dr Hranicky has been studying and training others in for years, when we change our consciousness and shift the way we see things change can happen, spontaneous healing can occur.

Mind Body Medicine is the cohesive structure, the glue, the heart that brings holistic cancer treatment together. When you combine intentionality, emotional work and consciousness, reduce the toxic burden and increase the bodies energy through things like Vitamin C and good foods its dynamite!

“We must as a world change the focus of our consciousness first… Then we can achieve emotional well-being, optimal health and longevity, and the possibility of world peace. May God Bless Us as we attempt to do what we know is to be true…

May we all stop referring to ourselves as a certain age in limiting ways, step out of a linear mindset and into an “ageless” mindset, and enjoy the energy that flows when there is no resistance and only eternal joy and well-being!!” says Dr Hranicky.

“The body is the servant of the mind. It obeys the operations of the mind, whether they be deliberately chosen or automatically expressed. Disease rooted in thought.”
James Allen

Janet Hranicky Phd is part of the staff at the Simonton Cancer Centre and is the Founder and President of The American Health Institute and a long time friend and colleague of Dr Carl Simonton, founder of the centre and author of Getting Well Again who was a leader in the Mind Body Medicine movement in its conception in the 70′s. Trained as a radiation Oncologist, he was a Philosopher and Theologian.

Dr Simonton developed a treatment that’s focused on treating the individual, not the cancer. Whilst there is a support element to the treatment, the focus is on developing coping mechanisms and considering the Mental, Emotional and Spiritual factors, which are the central factors in the development and treatment of the disease. This a very specific refined and sophisticated model and program.

“Equal opportunity means everyone will

have a fair chance at being incompetent.”

Laurence J. Peter
