How to Benefit from the Mind-Body Connection   (excerpt)

You are about to gain insight into the mind-body connection. The number of
people who truly understand these principles on our planet are relatively few.
There is an undeniable connection between our minds and bodies, you can learn to use this fact to your benefit.

Dr. Bernie Siegel, author of "Love, Medicine and Miracles" was once a distraught cancer surgeon until he began to understand the greater principles of the mind- body connection. He felt dragged down by the artificial barriers that existed between patient and doctor, and the helplessness he often felt as a result of his inability to effectively serve those patients. Eventually, those barriers were disintegrated by Dr. Siegel's recognition and growing understanding of the mind-body connection and how it could serve his patients and himself.

Dr. Siegel, or Bernie as he began to have his patients refer to him, had some
startling realizations as a cancer surgeon. He found that there were actually
quite a few people in the world that successfully beat the statistics on cancer
survival. He began to recognize that a patient's ability to defeat something as
serious as cancer had to do with the patient's mind and attitude about their
disease.
