Some of the highlights Mary shares:
- Research shows that writing, art and music aid in the healing process
- Expressing yourself creatively facilitates healing
- By saving others we also save ourselves
- To make writing more powerful in the healing process, write with deliberate intent. Describe the scenario that traumatized you, how you felt then, and how you feel now.
- Remember to reach out and ask for help and support when going through trauma
- Host a "hat party" for a friend who has been diagnosed with cancer, of plan one for yourself
- I don't want to just survive, but thrive!
- Cancer is an opportunity to evaluate your life and decide what else you'd like to do. It can be a doorway to new possibilities
- My job is to find the joy
- Our bodies heal when we're in a parasympathetic dominant state - the more we can relax and feel peace, the quicker our body can heal itself
- Finding joy in eating and growing food
- Creativity is more than just art, gardening is also a way to participate in the creation process
- Mary's mother was a World War II pilot - example of heroism
- Heroism can be personal as we transform ourselves
- What is a hero? Someone who doesn't put limits on themselves and serves others
- And more
