The Art of Psycho-Oncology

By: Vaiphei, Suantak Demkhosei

The Purpose of the book is to highlight the emerging needs of palliative end-of-life care in Indian clinical settings. The book focuses on delivering a good/meaningful death and dying process, which becomes the underlying factor in the formation of the current research book. Palliative care practitioners may seize the opportunity to encourage patients to find meaning in suffering as they face inevitable death. The meaning-making process can be generative for patients' feelings of anxiety, guilt, or hopelessness that seem punishing and unrelenting at the end of life and can be transformed into ways of actively exploring the relationship with self and others. Finding meaning at the end of life is no small endeavour: it takes courage, commitment, and conviction to reflect upon and take ownership of one's existence. The value of Spiritual psychotherapy in end-of-life care is that it encourages patients to seriously explore their past, present, and future in terms of meaningful choices and the experiences that created and continue to generate their stories.
