Description

Diagnosed with a disease that can't be reversed? Learn how to keep living life to the fullest.

Have you received a terminal or chronic diagnosis? Is your mind succumbing to age or illness? Can you ever find joy, peace, or fulfillment in these challenging conditions? The answer is a resounding yes.

Author Jarem Sawatsky saw the countless guides out there for those caring for the ill and healing the curable, but when he was diagnosed with Huntington's Disease he found there was nothing for those living with incurable illness. He quit his job as a professor and devoted his life to exploring the possibilities of living with chronic conditions. Now he's bringing his findings and insights to you.

In Dancing with Elephants, you'll discover:

  • Simple practices to bring healing to your heart and life to your new outlook
  • Humorous (and occasionally heart-wrenching) stories of Sawatsky's own journey
  • Multiple ways to build confidence in yourself, even when you've been shaken to the core
  • A new perspective to cut some of the pain and renew your spirit
  • Practical tools to face your seemingly inescapable fears, and much, much more!

Based on the popular blog of the same name, Dancing with Elephants includes insightful interviews with chronic disease experts Toni Bernhard, Lucy Kalanithi, and Patch Adams. Sawatsky's landmark book provides support that only a fellow traveler down this road can offer. If you like touching stories, mindful wisdom, and a touch of irreverent humor, then you'll love Sawatsky's life-changing book.

Inspired!!!

This book is fantastic if you're looking for something to help you direct your mindset towards a more positive and self-controlled direction. It really takes to heart the concept of being in control of how you RESPOND to the world in any situation, and how your chosen responses impact your future. His personal story of his challenges and the tools used to overcome them is truly awe-inspiring. I found this book motivated me to take action and make some changes! The volume of humor he uses was very pleasant as well.

loved it

enjoyed this book. great for anyone as we all have an aging brain. I'm always encouraged by someone who has spent time watching different countries cultures and religions and implementing their practices without losing their own faith. I'm recommending this book to so many people. It will help you be aware of the many blessings you have as well as have gratitude for the downfall as well. Thank you for writing this book.

This book is a gift

Thank you Mr. Sawatsky, for the gift of sharing your thoughts, experiences and plans. Your book goes beyond the “elephant” in the room and provides readers with wisdom that can be applied to anyone's life situation.

Unique perspective

Interesting and insightful. I appreciate Sawatsky's raw vulnerability; the way he embraces his illness and his life left me encouraged and awed. This work reminds me of Jean Vanier's work. Both men seek to embrace our humanity with all its brokenness. I highly recommend this book to anyone living with chronic pain or a long term disability or a terminal illness, and to anyone who wants to learn more about what it means to be human, not to mention those who have a friend or family member that's suffering.
And, it definitely has a distinct Canadian flavor! As a fellow Canadian prairie dweller - I appreciate that!

Powerful insights on acceptance

This book contained many life-affirming gems about thriving no matter what life throws at you; on recognizing that the dark is as necessary and beautiful as the light.
