One of the fundamental tenets at the heart of Eastern energetic medicine is the understanding of disease prevention. It was believed that a skilled healer could not only prevent illness but also slow down the aging process, thereby promoting longevity. Additionally, it’s important to engage in activities that help transform Qi and Blood continuously, moment to moment. Allow me to share traditional wisdom about our life force so that you find the value of our rich, profound and transitory life journey.
Last year, in 2023, I conducted a workshop on immune boosting during the pandemic and gave a presentation on cancer prevention and management for the Japanese Acupuncturist Association via Zoom. I’d like to share these topics to promote a healthy lifestyle for you in 2024 and beyond.
My friends, first of all, let’s start by exploring the Lifetime Risk of Developing Cancer. According to the National Cancer Institute, around 40.5 percent of both men and women will receive a cancer diagnosis at some stage in their lives, based on data from 2017–2019.
Other sources reported that the likelihood of developing cancer from birth to death is roughly equivalent to one out of every four individuals, with both men and women facing similar levels of risk In Japan, it has been said that two out of every three individuals are affected by cancer, with one out of every three succumbing to the disease. (Tanigawa, 2015).
However, my friends, we do not have to be fearful, but vigilant with ourselves, our people, communities and the world. Education is key in empowering us to prevent this disease effectively.
