A recent article in Lancet<\/a>, the British Medical Journal, has concluded that the placebo effect, or the “fake treatment” effect, is stronger than medical doctors believed.<\/p>\n

“international experts say there is increasing evidence that fake treatments, or placebos, have an actual biological effect in the body. …researchers cite studies where patients with Parkinson’s disease were given dummy pills. That led their brains to release dopamine, a feel-good chemical, and also resulted in other changes in brain activity.”<\/p>\n

Wow, isn’t that something.\u00a0 And don’t you love how they call placebo treatments “fake treatments”?\u00a0 If the drug companies aren’t involved, then it is a fake treatment?\u00a0 At least that was the impression I got.<\/p>\n

But the good news part is that mainstream medicine is slowly waking up to the power of the body.\u00a0 Yes we can influence our health, even heal ourselves.\u00a0 Doesn’t mean it is easy, but we can visualize, meditate and pray our way to health.\u00a0 Why, you ask, does this work.\u00a0 Because the power of thought, of our thoughts, have a power to influence the physical world, that’s why.<\/p>\n

And that is what manifesting your life is all about.\u00a0 We can change our world, inside<\/a> our bodies and outside<\/a>.\u00a0 It just takes work!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
