The Psychobiology of Mind Body Healing

Home > Book Reviews > The Psychobiology of Mind Body Healing

Many of the hypotheses that Rossi proposed when this now-seminal book was first published in 1986 have now been confirmed. The mind-body connection is a process that can be seen, measured and accessed through hypnosis.

In addition to presenting the evidence that illustrates that it is possible to use the mind to heal body illness, Rossi gives over a dozen new approaches to mind-body healing in a series of teaching tutorials.

Ultradian rhythms are also comprehensively described, including the effects of suppressing them, how to use them for stress management and how to utilise them in hypnotherapy.

Well worth it for the serious student!
