It's the Thought that Counts:
Why Mind over Matter Really Works
Dr. David Hamilton

Friday 21st November 2008 @ 7pm - 9pm
Swedenborg Hall, Holborn

The body and mind are intertwined. Our thoughts and emotions affect the microscopic structure of our brains and the structure and behaviour of cells all throughout the body. They even impact our DNA. Genes in brain cells and cells throughout the body are switched on and off in response to how we think and feel. This is mind over matter at the genetic level.

Lecture & Discussion

Every part of the body is connected to the brain. If we imagine moving any part of the body, the part of the brain that governs it is activated and so is the part that we imagine moving. So when we visualise parts of our bodies, we actually cause electrical and chemical changes there. This begins to explain why visualisation can be used to heal the body. When we visualise ourselves well, when we are sick, we are stimulating the brain, the part of our body this is sick, and we affect cells and genes.

I’ll talk about how visualisation can be used to heal the body and also give some real examples of how people around the world have used visualisation to heal themselves of both minor and major illnesses.

The audience will gain an understanding of how the mind affects the body. In particular, they will gain an understanding of how the mind can heal the body. They will learn about:

The placebo effect

How meditation affects the body

How thoughts change the brain

How thoughts affect our cells

How the mind affects DNA

Some scientific evidence of mind over matter

How some people have effectively used their minds to heal themselves of illness

The talk will be give in an upbeat and inspiring fashion and will inspire the audience with knowledge and belief in the power of their own selves.
