Guided Meditation for Cancer Patients & Caregivers
The video below is a guided, visualization meditation for patients who have cancer. The meditation uses some suggestions for guided meditation from the book Getting Well Again by O. Carl Simonton, M.D. This video begins with over four minutes of information on guided meditation, and then the formal meditation (which is approximately 12 and a half minutes) begins at about the 4:12 mark—if you prefer, feel free to skip the intro and go straight to the meditation. The ringing of meditation chimes indicates the beginning and ending of this meditation. If the internet connection is slow, you can watch it on YouTube here.
The video also utilizes nature images for those who prefer to meditate with their eyes open. While it’s geared towards cancer patients, this video may also be helpful for caregivers of cancer patients, particularly for cultivating empathy and compassion.
