Hi John, try this link - at the bottom it gives a summary of trials and results http://www.cancerresearchuk.org/about-cancer/cancers-in-general/treatment/complementary-alternative/therapies/meditation I read the link that you put up - but it doesn't mention mindfulness, just homoeopathic pills- which I'm sure you appreciate is nothing to do with my services. What I did find interesting was the reference to the ''placebo effect'' - the power of the mind can bring about physical and mental well-being. Please do not think that I'am advocating Mindfulness over traditional medicine - I'm advocating the practice in conjunction with traditional medicine to best serve the client. There is also a fabulous documentary called 'The Connect' which shows lots of leading U.S. medical DR's and professors running clinical trials on the effectiveness Mindfulness with positive results.

Hi John, yes some studies have suggested that it can help manage Cancer (please note not cure!) This means that it can help a patient cope with the pain, and stress associated with the disease - which in turn can have a physical benefit. Studies also showed that meditation can grow back telomeres on our genes which shrink with old age and illness. here's a few articles which you may find useful. http://www.independent.co.uk/news/science/mindfulness-meditation-and-group-therapy-protect-cells-of-breast-cancer-survivors-9839580.html http://www.cancerresearchuk.org/about-cancer/find-a-clinical-trial/a-study-mindfulness-as-way-of-helping-with-fatigue-anxiety-and-depression-in-secondary-breast-cancer-mfab#undefined http://www.theguardian.com/society/2014/feb/14/cancer-meditation-aid-recovery let me know if you have any questions
