In the Spotlight: Mind Within Matter

Philip Chard
Sunday November 3
10:30 AM | Daniels Hall

Extensive research shows how certain states of consciousness deeply influence health and physical well-being. We will examine the mysterious placebo effect, so-called “mind over matter,” how different types of consciousness create their own unique biology, and the capacity of awareness, beliefs and expectations to directly affect physiology. Attendees will learn actionable steps for using mental processes to enhance physical health.
