This is the most fantastic book! Granted it’s a heavy read but boy do you get a good meal from it! In a nutshell, “it explains the science behind the brain’s opiate receptors and other evidence of the intimate connections between mind and body” ….in translation, how our thoughts, emotions and state of mind, directly affect the health of our bodies.
Molecules of Emotion: The Science Behind Mind-Body Medicine… the story of a wife… a NIH lecturer… a scientist… a mother… and an AIDS researcher. Do you want to know why we feel the way we feel? Are you curious how your thoughts and emotions can influence your health? Does our brain work apart from the body? Or they all part of one big system? Dr Candace Pert has spent most of her life studying chemicals and how they work in our bodies. By establishing a biomedical basis for emotion, and explaining how our feelings, emotions, and bodies are connected — through our mind — we can begin to understand our lives like never before.
Pipa says : This woman is absolutely incredible. Her research is groundbreaking and she is a leader in her field. She has for years, campaigned heavily for alternative therapies to be embraced by the medical industry and you will be blown away by reading her very down to earth (although sometimes heady) way of unfolding some of the most scientific discoveries and engaging us to the level that we GET it!
This book could potentially change your life!
