The globally recognized Simonton Method offers an easily learnable way to mobilize one's self-healing powers. Cornelia Kaspar demonstrates how you can influence your recovery process and positively affect the course of the disease, as well as how family and friends can provide support. The equally moving and astonishing testimonials, along with the practical health plan, encourage all individuals suffering from a serious illness to look optimistically towards the future.
