Faith healing, True or false?

Actually, that's not quite what I meant. I was not looking for a definition, but some thought as to what is the mechanism of placebo. What physical parts of the body respond to our thoughts and feelings? Why and how? There's quite a few questions that could spring off of that and I don't think that there are currently any answers but it's very interesting to think about - though maybe I just think so because I am a biology/pre-med/alternative health/whatever student. :rolleyes:

oh OK! The question you ask about physicality and thoughts is the $64000 question of course that has exercised minds for many years.

Placebo, nocebo....either way our thoughts/intentions/focus/prayers are powerful enough to affect any part of our body. Whether it be an indivdual cell, a group of them, a body system, whatever...

faith of a mustard seed and all that.

The issue often is what we counter with, self doubt, other negative thought, etc.
