Designed as a step-by-step guide and source of inspiration, “Reclaim Your Strength and Hope: Exercises for Cancer Core Recovery” (published by Balboa Press) by Emilee Garfield intends to help women who have cancer so that they don’t have to walk through the journey alone.

This holistic and full spectrum guide for women in cancer recovery incorporates safe, gentle and therapeutic Pilates and yoga exercises, as well as inspirational stories, journaling and mindfulness excercises. The book focuses on abdominal cancers and surgeries, such as ostomy, as well as the lifelong side effects cancer leaves individuals with. Garfield asserts that movement is medicine and that exercise in an important part in reclaiming strength after experiencing cancer.

Garfield wants her readers to “walk away feeling more hopeful and inspired to keep going and not give up because they realize that if I can do it, they can do it too! I’m on this journey with them and they’re not alone.”
