About the book
expectations, faith and self -deception can seriously affect our body and mind. Eric Vans explores the topic of "internal pharmaceuticals" of real chemical reactions produced by our brain when we think that we are pain or treated (even if this does not really happen).
Thanks to the modern technologies for scanning the brain and a detailed study of the history of placebo and non -traditional medicine, Eric Vans shows how our suggestibility can become an opportunity for personalized medicine.
From the author
In this book I will talk about hidden strength, history and scientific justifications of suggestibility of people. On its pages you will meet with hypnotists, doctors, sorcerers and healers. They will poke with needles, they will conduct current through me, they will cure and even curse me. And in the end, I hope I will be able to reveal you the secrets of the oldest legends of mankind and how they can change your life.
Modern science gradually discovers that healing by faith, magic pills and lion"s lion"s lion of non -traditional medicine has something in common - you. People are always doubting creatures, continuously inventing schemes that explain the random, frightening and dangerous world in which they live. And everything that does not correspond to their ideas is thrown out or simply changes until it starts to approach.
Our brain skillfully deceives us since the beginning of time. It’s just that so far we could not recognize this lie. Today we are on the threshold of the discovery of what lies not only for healing faith, but also for homeopathy, acupuncture, witchcraft, spells, medicinal herbs and many of what saved and treated humanity, despite the complete lack of logical explanations. What we find in the process of new discoveries is not as elementary and simple as the Universe rotating around the Sun. But for a future science, this is no less important than the search and understanding of the abyss between what we think and what is actually. Ultimately, it turns out that the world around us is not at all what it seems. And more importantly - not the way we expected to see him. And this is precisely the unimaginable force.
For whom this book
For everyone who is interested in medicine and science, the structure of our consciousness.
