«Familia contra enfermedad» is the essay by Stephanie Matthews-Simonton on the impact of the family environment on health, published by Los Libros del Comienzo in paperback (320 pages, in Spanish).
The author, known for her work in visualisation applied to oncology patients, analyses how relationships and the emotional climate of the home influence the course of a serious illness such as cancer. She proposes that the patient take an active part in their recovery and that the family learn to express the emotions associated with the diagnosis in order to turn the domestic environment into a therapeutic support. It includes visualisation techniques aimed at strengthening the immune system and sustaining hope during treatment.
Work originally published in Spanish in 1993, translated by Eduardo Roselló Toca. The cover subtitle is «Efectos sanadores del ambiente familiar».
Aimed at people with cancer, their families and readers interested in the relationship between psychology, emotions and health.
