We believe that the consciousness-based/holistic medical toolbox has a serious additional offer to cancer patients and, as a consequence, designed a treatment for the patient with metastasized cancer. From a holistic perspective, cancer can be understood as a simple disturbance of the cells, arising from the tissue holding on to a trauma with strong emotional content. This is called "a blockage", where the function of the cells is allocated from their original function in the tissue to a function of holding emotions. We hope to be able not only to improve the quality of life, but also to improve survival and in some cases even induce spontaneous remission of the metastasized cancer. This paper describes how work with a patient with metastasized cancer can be done in the holistic clinical practice in 14 days on an individual basis, helping the patient to recover her human character, purpose of life, coherence, and will to live, thus improving quality of life and possibly also survival time. The holistic therapeutic work includes (1) teaching existential theory, (2) working with life perspective and philosophy of life, (3) helping the patient to acknowledge the state of the disease and the feelings connected to it, and finally (4) getting the patient into the holistic state of healing: (a) feeling old repressed emotions, (b) understanding why she got sick from a holistic point of view, and finally (c) letting go of the negative beliefs and decisions that made her sick according to the holistic theory of nongenetic diseases. The theory of the human character, the quality of life theories, the holistic theory of cancer, the holistic process theory of healing, the theory of (Antonovsky) coherence, and the life mission theory are the most important theories for the patient to find hope and mobilize the will to fight the cancer and survive. The patient went through the following phases: (1) finding the purpose of life and hidden resources; (2) confronting denial; (3) taking responsibility for being very ill; (4) severe existential crises with no wish to live while still fighting; (5) integration of many repressed feelings and negative decisions thus rehabilitating character; (6) confronting lack of intimacy and trust in others and this way rehabilitating the ability to love; (7) rehabilitating the will to live, breaking through and falling in love with life; (8) assuming responsibility for the social relations; and sometimes (9) quality of life is improved radically with indications of spontaneous remission of the liver tumors.
我们认为，基于意识的/整体医学工具箱能为癌症患者提供一项重要的额外帮助，因此，我们为转移性癌症患者设计了一种治疗方法。从整体角度来看，癌症可被理解为细胞的一种简单紊乱，其源于组织执着于带有强烈情感内容的创伤。这被称为“阻塞”，此时细胞的功能从其在组织中的原始功能转变为承载情感的功能。我们希望不仅能提高生活质量，还能提高生存率，在某些情况下甚至能促使转移性癌症自发缓解。本文描述了在整体临床实践中如何在14天内针对个体对转移性癌症患者进行治疗，帮助患者恢复其人性特质、生活目标、连贯性和生存意志，从而提高生活质量，并有可能延长生存时间。整体治疗工作包括：（1）教授存在主义理论；（2）探讨生活视角和生活哲学；（3）帮助患者认识疾病状态以及与之相关的感受；最后（4）使患者进入整体康复状态：（a）感受旧时被压抑的情绪；（b）从整体角度理解自己患病的原因；最后（c）根据非基因疾病的整体理论，放下导致其患病的负面信念和决定。人性特质理论、生活质量理论、癌症整体理论、整体康复过程理论、（安东诺夫斯基的）连贯性理论以及人生使命理论是患者找到希望并调动与癌症抗争及生存意志的最重要理论。患者经历了以下阶段：（1）找到生活目标和隐藏的资源；（2）面对否认情绪；（3）为身患重病承担责任；（4）在仍在抗争的同时经历严重的存在主义危机，不想活下去；（5）整合许多被压抑的情感和负面决定，从而重塑性格；（6）面对与他人缺乏亲密感和信任的问题，以此恢复爱的能力；（7）恢复生存意志，突破困境并爱上生活；（8）为社会关系承担责任；有时（9）生活质量得到根本改善，有肝脏肿瘤自发缓解的迹象。
