In 1996, Joyce Greenberg was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. Although she had two re-occurrences after her initial diagnosis, she also has had three successful remissions using a combination of strategies, which include Yi Ren Qigong, surgery, raw food and natural medicine.
Because lymphoma may never be cured, Joyce has come to define the word cure as any activity or experience, which engages, vitalizes, and catalyzes healing. She has ceased looking for “the cure” and instead relies on many natural medicine remedies and activities, which includes creative expression and engagement with her extraordinary community of friends and neighbors as her sources for healing.
In this blog, Joyce shares her personal daily self-cures. Whether she’s massaging kale, fermenting sake, sweeping floors, foraging for wild mushrooms or making ceramic art, she considers all experiences in life as potentially curative. Follow this blog to track her ordinary, experimental, and highly aesthetic way of living as she seeks her daily self cures.
