|  Beverly Vote: The Breast Cancer Wellness Magazine | Beverly Vote: The Breast Cancer Wellness Magazine was created to help meet the
emotional needs of women facing breast cancer. Beverly Vote, Creator
and Publisher, says “When I was diagnosed with breast cancer at the age
of 38, I had no role model for healing. I didn't know what it took to
heal, what healing looked like, what healing felt like, or how to
create a wellness experience for myself. The only person I knew that
had cancer was my aunt, and she died of cancer at age 26. Thus at
first, I equated cancer with death sentence. I learned how truly
beneficial guided imagery is for healing, and I learned the difference
between a healing journey that was based on empowerment, versus
self-sabotage.” The magazine was created to help women and men
understand what they can do to empower their mind, body, and spirit for
a deeper healing experience. |
