The Power of Self-Perception
How you see yourself matters.
Research demonstrates that hope, optimism, and a healthy sense of self can play an important role in emotional well-being throughout treatment and recovery. Studies have associated these qualities with reduced anxiety and depression, less pain, and in some research, improved cancer survival rates. Nurturing optimism, confidence, and a positive self-image can be a valuable complement to traditional medical treatment.
