About this ebook
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.
#1 Many doctors do not want to believe that the mind can heal the body, as it goes against everything they have learned about how the body works. But when you witness things happening on your watch that science cannot explain, you start to wonder if there is something more mystical at play.
#2 There are many stories of people who have changed their diets, started exercise, and changed their lifestyles, and have seen positive results.
#3 I began to wonder if there was anything I could do to help facilitate the process of spontaneous remission. I couldn’t help but feel that by not at least considering the possibility that patients might have some control over their healing, I was being an irresponsible doctor.
#4 I was initially resistant to the idea that the body is capable of healing itself, but as I continued to research, I was shocked at how many patients had experienced unexplained healings. I was fascinated, and wanted to understand what was going on.

Many doctors do not want to believe that the mind can heal the body, as it goes against everything they have learned about how the body works. But when you witness things happening on your watch that science cannot explain, you start to wonder if there is something more mystical at play.
#2
There are many stories of people who have changed their diets, started exercise, and changed their lifestyles, and have seen positive results.
#3
I began to wonder if there was anything I could do to help facilitate the process of spontaneous remission. I couldn’t help but feel that by not at least considering the possibility that patients might have some control over their healing, I was being an irresponsible doctor.
#4
I was initially resistant to the idea that the body is capable of healing itself, but as I continued to research, I was shocked at how many patients had experienced unexplained healings. I was fascinated, and wanted to understand what was going on.
#5
The author’s place in the world of medicine was unclear to her at the time. She had spent 12 years training to become a doctor, and she believed it was her responsibility to diagnose what was wrong with a person’s body and prescribe the right treatment.
#6
While doctors may know the names of the arteries in the hand or the muscles in the leg better than most patients, in some cases, the patient is actually the best diagnostician. Perhaps, instead of believing we doctors know what’s best for the body, patients should believe that we doctors know what’s best for them.
#7
I was 33 years old and I was extremely unhappy in my job as a full-time partner in a busy obstetrics and gynecology practice. I had become disillusioned with our broken healthcare system, which required me to churn through 40 patients a day.
#8
I was diagnosed with multiple health conditions in my 20s, and I took seven medications every day. My health improved to some degree after falling in love with the man who would become the father of my daughter. But I was still loading up on drugs every day, and my body was far from well.
#9
I was terrified of making the changes I knew I needed to make, but I was also longing to practice medicine in a way that was in line with my values. I was offered a job at an integrative medicine practice in Marin County, near San Francisco, and I jumped at the chance.
#10
I was not prepared for the way this job would threaten my still
