CB & Olaf
CB & Olaf Store:
Both versions of the CB (Cancer Board) are 8 ½ x 11, made of sturdy hardboard, and are designed to give words of encouragement on one side, and on the other side it’s designed to give you something tangible to touch. Both sides provide you with a grounding for your visualizations - as well as something to utilize while allowing you to physically and mentally "Strike Back" against the Cancer invader. [All CB’s come with a handle/shoulder strap so that you can carry it with you while traveling to clinic visits!]
Each CB is personalized to the customer by stickers of their choice. (Personal pictures can be added by the customer to give even more of a bonding experience, or you may request for me to do it for you.)
Included with the original CB is Olaf the Hammer. (Why is it named Olaf you ask? I can only say that when I came up with this idea, I had a mental image of a mythically big, strong, healthy warrior-type man, whom disease would never dare touch, holding a large hammer over his shoulder.) He is your implement to pound away on the CB, to bang bang bang in physical retaliation against the Cancer, while visualizing your success! (Olaf the Hammer is a 7" light weight wooden hammer, and is attached by a colorful strap so that you can keep it with your CB. It can easily be detached for use.)
I have a selection of 7 original CB "bang" boards that you can choose from and 1 Prayer CB. (Patent #US 61/011,764.) In the "bang" boards, there are 6 Adult CB boards, and 1 Children's/Youth CB board available in the following colors:
1. General Cancer - blue sky
2. Breast Cancer - sweetpea pink (a percentage of sales of this CB goes to the American Breast Cancer fund)
3. Children's/Youth Cancer - banner red
4. Lung Cancer- sun yellow
5. Prostate Cancer - grape
6. Colon Cancer - saltwater green
7. Ovarian Cancer - dark berry pink
(Please see next page for pictures of the CB's - not all are shown.)
* In addition, there is a new CB that will be debuting soon - and will be called the Prayer Therapy CB. The main difference is that no mallet is included. Side One will be a place for a family prayer, plus different healing sayings from the Bible; and Side Two, will still be a side for personal pictures and encouraging phrases.
Please select from the following choices for youth stickers: music notes and instruments, toys, dolls, fairies, trucks, cars, sports-football, baseball, religious cross or Star of David, hockey, fishing, tennis, ballet, pets, beach chair, surf board, camping equipment, playground toys, snakes, frogs, airplanes, and a favorite food.
For adults please choose from the following: sports-football, baseball, hockey, fishing, tennis, ballet, musical notes and instruments, cars, planes, beach chair, surf board, camping equipment, pets, religious cross or Star of David, and a favorite food.
* Paper stock and stickers may vary slightly depending upon availability at time of purchase. If you have a hobby that's not listed, please call me and I'll see if I can find it for you. {Please note that some things are copyright protected - like Disney stickers - however, if you purchase them and mail them to me with a written request to add them, I can then apply them for you.}
Instructions/Suggestions for Use: Using the CB on a pillow, mattress or table while banging is recommended for stability and comfort.
I recommend you start on Side 1, to first work out any anger and stress buildup. It will show a picture of cancer, and various thoughts, sayings and ideas. As you repeat these sayings, use Olaf the Hammer to pound away on the image of the cancer - it will help alleviate stress, and is a way to feel like you are physically "fighting back"! {Please keep fingers out of the way as you pound away!} As you bang away, imagine that you are pounding the cancer cells into submission! (Plus it will probably make you smile to imagine beating cancer with a hammer!!)
On Side 2 are pictures meant to elicit calm, happy moments. This side is to be used to calm down and center your imagery techniques on healing. Research has found that having something tangible to touch and view, while having a professional guide you, or by using a subliminal or guided tape (of your choice), may assist you in visualizing your goal. (This side is also good for healing prayers of your choice.) If you would like it to be personalized, please include a picture of your home, family & friend, for me to include in your CB. (Pictures must be no larger than 2"x 2", maximum of 3 small pictures. One of Family, one of your Home, and one of your Friend(s). Please make sure the images are sharp and clear! All pictures are non-returnable.)
I also recommend that you get a group of other CB users together and have group sessions often. There is strength and support in numbers!! Appoint one person as the Chairperson (or ask your Dr or Counselor) to lead everyone. Start with Side 1 and ask everyone in the group to visualize beating the enemy and bang away with Olaf. After everyone has pounded away until they are all done, then have everyone do some deep breathing to calm down. Once calm, proceed with going to Side 2. On this side the Chairperson can read the various statements on the CB, and play a visualization tape if you wish, while everyone remains focused on their CB pictures and concentrates on their individual health and recovery.
* Using CB & Olaf regularly in a consistent manner - like you would any other patient aid, will give best results. I recommend a minimum of one session per day. (Again, results are subjective and no guarantee is implied nor given.) Please review the Disclaimer notice.
Thank you for your purchase and may you be blessed with good health.
Sincerely,
L. Rohrman
