Abstract "When diagnosed with cancer or another life-threatening illness, all concerned - patient, family, friends - typically feel frightened and helpless. When Dr. Roseman read the transcript of Joan of Arc's trials, she realized that this beloved heroine had much to offer women patients especially. In addition to her fierce faith, the 14th Century teenager faced her incredible challenges with remarkable fortitude, moxie, and even humor. Roseman here uses Joan's words and experiences to help readers access their own innate courage and reclaim their personal power. Brief chapters highlight issues, such as Trust, Wounding, and Army of Support, with a quotation from Joan, ways for readers to relate to it, and a guided meditation on the subject. These same issues are then re-imagined as "Gateways to Courage" through writing, contemplative, and arts-based exercises. Including strategies for optimizing one's healthcare and communications, this wonderfully original resource is as powerful and inspiring as Joan herself"-- Provided by publisher.
