I personally recommend Chunyi Lin's CD "Small Universe". It's a CD from Spring Forest QiGong. Google It. It's a very powerful CD for balancing and healing the entire body.

Hope that helps Yes, there are CDs with guided meditations that are extremely helpful. Comprehensive pain management approaches including pre-emptive analgesia with nerve blocks and the use of pain pumps is also very beneficial.
Meditation has been shown to reduce stress, improve mood, and affect immune function, but studies have not yet established whether it prevents cancer recurrence. However, just because a study hasn’t been done yet to prove meditation prevents recurrence, does not mean it won’t be helpful. Stress and depression are often associated with higher morbidity and mortality rates among people with chronic disease in general, so anything you can do to manage your stress will be good for your health. In terms of the type of meditation, I suggest selecting the one you like the best and feels the most right to you. People vary a lot in their response to various forms of meditation and stress reduction. If you are in or around Massachusetts, for classes I highly recommend the UMass Center for Mindfulness http://www.umassmed.edu/Content.aspx?id=41252 originally founded by Jon Kabat-Zinn.

Great question. Yes, I have a specific guided meditation for uncovering and finding the higher purpose or role that cancer plays in people's lives. Often the ego does not want to hear this kind of information. So during the meditation we tap into the wisdom of the soul in order to explore and find the deeper meaning of the healing journey.
