YOU ARE THE PLACEBO : MAKING YOUR MIND MATTER

Abstract

The book “You Are Placebo: Making Your Thoughts Work for Your Health” by Dr. Joe Dispenza presents a revolutionary concept in medicine and psychology. Empirical evidence shows that “thoughts” and “beliefs” can directly affect our health and body. This book is not only a work about alternative medicine, but also a combination of science, medicine, and spirituality that can be applied in practice. This book is considered a scientific literature, especially in medicine, where Dr. Joe Dispenza presents the concept of “placebo” as a medical treatment method, telling the story of his personal experience when he suffered a serious accident that fractured his spine, but refused surgery and believed in the power of self-healing. After recovering in 9 weeks, he became interested in “instant healing” and traveled around the world to study patients who had amazing recoveries from serious illnesses without using modern medicine.
