How beliefs can harm you - the amazing effect of our beliefs and expectations
21/07/2009 by Cathy.
This New Scientist article is a couple of months old now. However, it is well worth posting up for those who may not have seen it. It talks about the placebo and nocebo responses - real world consequences of our beliefs and expectations.
Beware Witch Doctors (New Scientist 16 May 2009 - Issue 2708)
The good news is that using hypnosis it is possible to break down our negative expectations and beliefs, and instill new positive expectations, which our minds will start to unconsciously motivate us towards.
Interesting and powerful stuff!
