Diet and Outlook Matter More Than You Realize. Kris Carr's Story
Posted by Tamara at 8/17/2008 10:24 AM and is filed under uncategorized 
I am still a little high from my meeting with Kris Carr this past Wednesday. If you read my last entry, you'll remember that I introduced you to Kris Carr, a truly remarkable 36-year-old woman who has been living for five years with stage IV cancer of the liver and lungs. With only 300 cases of her type of cancer diagnosed in the U.S. every year, her doctors called her case inoperable and incurable. (If you haven't read Thursday's entry, please do so).
Ms. Carr chose a rather unorthodox approach to her healing, which was to overhaul her lifestyle and document her search for health. For four years, she videotaped her quest for health. The result is a documentary called Crazy Sexy Cancer. Rent it. She then wrote a book: "Crazy Sexy Cancer Tips" which caught the attention of Oprah Winfrey. Before she knew it, Oprah's health guru, Dr. Mehmet Oz was paying a visit to her home to see just what she was doing.
How does she do it? A vegan diet, positive outlook, a healthy spiritual life, exercise, and with giving herself permission to truly live.
Ms. Carr was recently featured in Scientific American Journal. You may read more on her inspiring story by clicking on this link. I love that her story is being featured in Scientific American. How prestigious is that?
Having sat next to Kris at dinner, I will tell you first-handedly that I've never seen someone glow quite like her. And I know hundreds of yogis and vegans. If you'd like to get in on the action and participate in your own transformation, I would recommend joining her forum: www.crazysexylife.com.
This is Kris holding up her first book, sitting between Debbie and Joanne.
Kris is about to do the talk show circuit again in September to promote the release of her new book: "Crazy Sexy Cancer Survivor." Watch for her.
Thank you for reading.
