Joan Borysenko, one of the pioneers of the new medical synthesis called psychoneuroimmunology, narrates her best-selling book of the same name, in which she teaches you how to elicit your mind's powerful relaxation response in order to boost your immune system, overcome chronic pain, and alleviate the symptoms of stress-related illness.
How did a Harvard trained medical scientist become a mystic? In reality it was the other way around. At the age of 10 Joan experienced 6 months of an alternate reality what modern psychiatry would label psychosis and obsessive compulsive disorder. One day while praying fervently for help all fear and confusion parted to reveal a luminous reality of exquisite love surpassing peace and practical wisdom that guided her to an almost instantaneous recovery. Her journey to hell and back birthed a lifelong fascination with healing the roots of consciousness and the realm of Spirit. Weaving together biology psychology and spirituality in a credible accessible way is her soul's purpose.
