Mind over Matter – Utilizing the Placebo Effect
Our minds are a form of ancient machinery built to decipher the outside world. Using our sense of perception, it makes judgments and appraisals that prepare the body for action. But what if we could influence these functions and alter how our bodies react, even to the point of developing a sense of mastery over our thoughts, behaviors, and motivations?
These are the products of a finely tuned mind-body connection that reveals itself as a feedback loop, giving us the innate capacity to alter our mental and physical lives, extending into the physiology of our blood chemistry to the very genetic expression in our DNA.
Research and treatment efforts in everything from depression to medical pain relief have shown that our ability to heal is not only controlled by the direct intervention of health practitioners but also deeply influenced by the expectations of the individual.
Therefore, the placebo effect is not an accident. It is the spontaneous remission or reduction of symptoms of both physical and mental ailments by virtue of the belief in “treatment”. This reveals a much deeper mechanism of the brain to modulate its responses to inner and outer conditions that inevitably affect mood, metabolism, the immune system, and many other functions.
Join us in rediscovering this ancient technology, understanding and utilizing the mechanisms of the mind-body connection to bring out the fullest in you, harnessing the true power of your conscious will to unfold the grandiosity and the true essence of being, the real you beyond you.
