Healing Modalities

I realized that a lot of the things I was interested in, so the placebo effect, hypnosis, I did a feature article on mindfulness meditation and its use for treating depression and anxiety. I was like, wait, all of these have this theme of, they're all to do with the mind and its effect on our physical health. So that's what kind of got me into that book and realizing the deep connections between mind and body that I think conventional science and medicine has often ignored. I still feel that the scientific method is important. We need to test our treatments, but we need to have a more open-minded idea of what we are going to be able to study in science, and that is really happening now. There are just fascinating techniques for doing that.
