In science class, we Project Director studied the material world, which we expected would someday be understood Robert A. Miller Supervising Editor and predicted down to the last molecule. In philosophy, we studied models of Christine Economos reality, based on the rational mind, that took no notice of conditions male and Graphic Designer female, sick and well, rich and poor. Yet every day in this divided world of B.T. Whitehill mind and body, our language betrayed the limitations of our categories. My Writers Lois Grippo parents talked about our friend the grocer, who "worried himself sick," and Richard Kelso my Uncle Carl believed that laughter could ease what ailed you. Over the Project Coordinator/Assistant Editor years, my interest in questions of mind, body, and health grew, both person- Lisa Keating Photo Researchers ally and professionally, and eventually led to HEALING AND THE MIND. Christina L. Draper David Reisman, Ed.D. I believe this series has particular relevance to young people. For them to Electronic Composition understand the connection between emotions and health is important under Lou Lomurno any circumstances, but such understanding is imperative today, given the life Copy Editor Edwina McMahon and death implications of so many decisions confronting teenagers, from the Proofreader use of drugs to issues of sex. In the words of Vaclav Havel, "Every education Kevin E. Kennedy is a kind of inward journey." The education young people receive today surely Core Consultants must lead them into a deeper understanding of the inner sources of health. Georganne Del Canto, Assistant Director Health, Physical Education and School Sports During the production of HEALING AND THE MIND, my colleagues and New York City Board of Education I made our own journey, one that sought to answer many of the questions that Harris Dienstfrey, Editor provoked our curiosity about the emerging field of mind-body medicine. We Advances,The Journal of Mind-Body Health encountered new questions, too for which there are not yet answers. Judy Doctoroff O'Neill, Vice President If the series advocates anything, it is that the journey is worth making for Public Affairs Television what each of us might learn about this remarkable union of mind, body and Patricia Moore Harbour, Ed.D., President The Center for Quality Education spirit that is the human being.

  • Molecules of Emotion: Why You Feel the Way You Feel Free
    FREE MOLECULES OF EMOTION: WHY YOU FEEL THE WAY YOU FEEL PDF Candace Pert,Deepak Chopra | 368 pages | 01 Mar 1999 | SIMON & SCHUSTER | 9780671033972 | English | New York, United States [PDF] molecules of emotion Download Free Molecules of Emotion Candace B. Pert Scribner. Candace Pert is a brilliant molecular biologist who was a key figure in the discovery of the endorphin molecule, the body's natural form of morphine. She is now widely regarded as the mother of a new field of science known as psychoneuroimmunology SmithsonianJune Her research into brain biochemistry at the National Institute of Mental Health contributed to a radically new understanding of mind and body. Now Pert Molecules of Emotion: Why You Feel the Way You Feel her peers are rejoining what Descartes put asunder, by looking deeply into the molecular level of life. In Molecules of EmotionPert offers a clear and often riveting account of her research on the frontier of a new kind of science. She also writes as an insider caught up in the politics of science, offering a rare glimpse of the ruthless competition for prizes and money that sometimes obscures the pursuit of truth. And, throwing aside the caution that is customary among scientists, she applies the new facts of psychoneuroimmunology to everyday life, discussing everything from drugs and disease to dreams and the molecular biology of hugs. There are enough new facts, metaphors and speculations in this book to astonish and sometimes raise the hackles of many readers, just as Pert's research has often been met with initial disbelief. The field of psychoneuroimmunology, although based on exacting research, has had a hard birth.

  • The Research of Candace Pert, Ph.D
    The Research of Candace Pert, Ph.D. Your Body is Your Subconscious Mind: Mind-Body Medicine Becomes the Science of Psychoneuroimmunolgy (PNI) Candace Pert, PhD, is Professor, Department of Physiology & Biophysics, Georgetown University School of Medicine, Washington DC, and author of Molecules of Emotion: The Science Behind Mind-Body Medicine. www.candacepert.com “Candace has taken a giant step toward shattering some cherished beliefs held sacred by Western scientists for more than two centuries. Her pioneering research has demonstrated how our internal chemicals, the neuropeptides and their receptors, are the actual biological underpinnings of our awareness, manifesting themselves as our emotions, beliefs and expectations, and profoundly influencing how we respond to and experience our world. ~Deepak Chopra MD, from the Foreword of Molecules of Emotion Dr. Candace Pert rocketed to fame in the scientific world in the early 70’s when, as a fledgling neuropharmacologist, she took on the daunting task of finding the opiate receptor for her doctoral dissertation at the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine. For the next decade and a half she headed a laboratory at the National Institutes of Health which published over 200 scientific articles explaining the discovery of numerous "neuropeptides." The ground-breaking work that Pert did with the opiate receptor was later nominated for a Lasker Award, also known as the “American Nobel Prize,” awarded annually for outstanding medical research. Pert’s discovery of the opiate receptor started a revolution that would later create profound shifts within nearly every field of modern medicine. It would ultimately unite immunology, endocrinology, neurophysiology, psychology and biology into a cohesive theory about how our thoughts and emotions are capable of creating wellness or disease in our bodies.

  • Why Love Matters: How Affection Shapes a Baby's Brain
    Why Love Matters Why Love Matters explains why loving relationships are essential to brain development in the early years, and how these early inter- actions can have lasting consequences for future emotional and physical health. This second edition follows on from the success of the fi rst, updating the scientifi c research, covering recent fi ndings in genetics and the mind/body connection, and including a new chapter highlighting our growing understanding of the part also played by pregnancy in shaping a baby’s future emotional and physical well- being. Sue Gerhardt focuses in particular on the wide- ranging effects of early stress on a baby’s or toddler’s developing nervous system. When things go wrong with relationships in early life, the depen- dent child has to adapt; what we now know is that his or her brain adapts too. The brain’s emotion and immune systems are particu- larly affected by early stress and can become less effective. This makes the child more vulnerable to a range of later diffi culties such as depression, anti- social behaviour, addictions or anorexia, as well as physical illness. Why Love Matters is an accessible, lively account of the latest fi ndings in neuroscience, developmental psychology and neurobi- ology – research that matters to us all. It is an invaluable and hugely popular guide for parents and professionals alike. Sue Gerhardt has been a psychoanalytic psychotherapist in private practice since 1997. She co- founded the Oxford Parent Infant Project (OXPIP), a pioneering charity that today provides psychotherapeutic help to hundreds of parents and babies in Oxfordshire and is now the prototype of many new ‘PIPs’ around the country.

A Comparative Study of the Effects of Hatha Yoga and Seated Meditation on Mood Elevation Abstract Objective: The purpose of this study was to measure the extent to which a hatha yoga practice would improve mood as compared to a seated meditation practice. Methods: This was an eighteen week, cross-over design study in which forty-four hatha yoga students, largely inexperienced with seated meditation, were randomly assigned to one of two groups. One group started with an eight week practice of hatha yoga, half an hour four times a week, and the other group practiced seated meditation. After eight weeks, all subjects stopped practicing for two weeks. Then they switched practices for another eight weeks. Both quantitative and qualitative measures were taken at the beginning of the study, after the first eight week practice, again after the two week break, and finally at the end of the study.
