Part 1: The Role of Yoga and Meditation in Improving Quality of Life for Cancer Patients
2:00 - 3:07 (67 min)
Recorded on
A medical lecture on the role of yoga and meditation as supportive care for cancer patients. "We must note which specific yogic and meditative techniques were used, as these vary widely." "Please do not give false hope that cancer will be cured... If a practitioner claims that prāṇāyāma, dhyāna, and some Ayurvedic herbs... can cure cancer, they are committing a grave sin against society." A doctor from AIIMS Delhi presents a detailed analysis of scientific studies on yogic interventions for cancer patients, emphasizing they are complementary to standard treatments like chemotherapy. He strongly warns against practitioners falsely claiming yoga can cure cancer, shares data on benefits for quality of life and stress, and proposes a large-scale research trial combining yoga, meditation, and herbal products for cancer prevention and care.
