For Health & Sustainability
If you value environmental awareness and
sustainability, come to Harmony Hill for your
next retreat. One of our core values is
sustainability-operating in right
relationship with the earth through
recycling, organic gardening, use of
nontoxic/recycled materials, incorporating
built green techniques and products in our
facilities, and conscious consumption of
resources.
Harmony Hill does this because of our
commitment to sustainability and because it
furthers our mission-to improve the quality
of life for those affected by cancer,
providing support and resources that inspire
renewal. Often our guests have weakened
immune systems and are sensitive to
environmental toxins. We want our buildings
to be low-toxin environments for all of our
guests.
Anyone is welcome at Harmony Hill-not just
those living with cancer. If you care about
the environment and value sustainable
practices, Harmony Hill is for you!
Income from facility rentals helps to support
our no-cost cancer programs.

BOOK REVIEW |

Crazy Sexy Cancer Tips by Kris Carr
Skirt! Books an Imprint of Globe Pequot
Press, Guilford, CT, 2007. $17.95
Wearing her cowboy boots through everyday of
the scans, biopsies, and batteries of test
and re-tests, Kris Carr proves that she is
indeed just the gal to give cancer a
makeover. Part scrap book, part journal and
bursting with color and energy, Crazy Sexy
Cancer Tips guides you through 'Cancer
University' thirty-something style. With the
intimacy of a chat with your best friend and
the liveliness to perk up even the most
depressed or scared, Carr tells the story of
how she was diagnosed with incurable cancer
(Happy Valentines Day!), quit her job, got
really healthy, and ended up getting hitched!
Peppered with "facts, hints, hell-yeahs,
how-tos, and know-hows" she warns not to go
Googling if you are a newbie to
cancer--instead, avoid the overwhelm by
having a friend do the research and pass
along only the bits you really need to know.
Similarly, follow in the wisdom of those who
have gone before by preparing yourself for
the barrage of questions from well meaning
friends and family that focus more on
mortality than recovery. Recommending 'Cancer
Babe Play Dates' to experience your own
vibrancy in the faces of others with cancer,
and recruiting a 'Cancer Pal' to accompany
you to doctor visits (both for support and as
a second pair of ears for all that medical
speak), Carr offers a glimpse into how to
become a true 'Survivor' whether you have
been 'stamped with an expiration date' or
know someone who has. Covering everything
from Healthy Eating 101 (ie. the miracle of
wheatgrass and coconut juice), doctor
shopping and insurance, to how to get back
into the dating game once your "sex drive
gets slammed into reverse" by the big C (lacy
bras and hot baths with candles work
wonders), Carr keeps you laughing even when
you would prefer to be crying.
