The Model Health Show TMHS 144: Mind Over Medicine - With Dr. Lissa Rankin
Many of us take our health for granted until it's suddenly taken away. When our health begins to slip out of our fingers, it can be a tremendous wake up call in our lives.
Some people receive the call and their life is transformed for the better. Something inside of them changes. They begin living differently. They make changes. They heal.
Many other people we've known and loved have faded away quickly. They believe that nothing else can be done. They give up.
There is an intermingling of these two groups of people for sure, but it's pretty clear in the research that those who recover have something very powerful in their favor. And that is the power of their mind.
When you talk to physician and New York Times bestselling author Lissa Rankin about the power of the mind to heal the body, she isn't just talking about something metaphysical, she is talking about a physical transformation that takes place, and it's based on what you believe.
