Having cancer is not the best life circumstance with which we must contend either as we grow older or should this happen to us at a much younger age, but if it does, then relaxing oftentimes puts life into perspective for me... similar to one standing on a sandy beach looking out at the vastness of the ocean or walking along the concrete walkway looking at the Grand Canyon. Equally as relaxing is the notion of sitting in a chair or recliner looking at the movement inside an aquarium while listening to calming music.
It does not change a damn thing about one's condition but it does slow the mind down some... and if, I cannot look at an Aquarium what also works for me is sitting in a warm hot tub leaning back against the porcelain sides with my eyes closed.
At other times, I get into my recliner in our living room and sometimes with the cat in my lap I lean back and stare at the Aquarium Screen Saver on ROKU and even though I know that the fish are all digital, it is still relaxing to me and it is without music but for me that is not a problem...
We need to relax our minds and bodies...
Having cancer forces us to sometimes move in that direction out of necessity.
