Claim Your Power, Gain Your Freedom. (Paperback or Softback)

Struggling with cancer? Wondering how to move beyond our present culture of impersonal relationships, violence, and materialism? Is the world we live in really the best humanity can hope for? Much more than simply a self-help manual, this fascinating and profoundly inspiring book addresses the root causes of life’s traumas rather than merely addressing its symptoms. Claim your Power, Gain your Freedom presents practical ways to deal with the fears and questions that surround life and death, and diseases such as cancer. This book encourages you to open your mind to new thoughts, ideas, and possibilities, ranging from the spiritual to the practical. Author Robert Rensing shares a lifetime of questioning what life really is, what it can and should be, and how to achieve that. His own experiences, ranging from the violence of WW2, his own struggle with terminal bone cancer, and 15 years of secluded living in a remote corner of the Canadian Rocky Mountains, have guided him to deep insight and wisdom. This innovative and inspired book is sure to stimulate your imagination and fuel your own creative ideas for building a more compassionate and connected life.

Robert Rensing was born in the Netherlands in 1932 and was an adolescent during the Nazi occupation. His most lasting memory was wondering why everyone on both sides supported killing. This concern haunted him into adulthood and was his primary reason for leaving a successful career in human resources in 1975 to become a homesteader in a remote part of the Canadian Rocky Mountains. Finally, he had time to read, to write, and to dream. Some of his poetry and short stories have been published in anthologies.

In 1982, he was diagnosed with terminal bone cancer. With doctors giving him only two to four weeks to live, his miraculous survival prompted intense soul searching that led him to develop a program called "Working with Cancer," which was implemented in manymedical clinics and treatment centers across Canada.

Rensing shares insights and ideas gleaned from these life experiences in Claim Your Power, Gain Your Freedom.
