In this TEDtalk, Lissa Rankin explores the spiritual and scientific implications

that the placebo effect has over us. She discusses how our thoughts

powerfully affect our physiology when we believe we can get well.

The placebo effect is concrete evidence that the body has its own innate self

repair system.

A study was conducted with 3500 participants who had all been diagnosed

with an incurable disease like cancer, HIV, various heart diseases, etc.

Through the placebo effect, everyone’s illness had all disappeared without

treatment.

Lissa goes on to talk about a specific case about a man named Mr. Wright,

who had been given drugs that he truly believed would cure his cancer.

Within days his tumors shrunk to half their size!

After a report was released stating the drug didn’t actually work, Mr. Wright’s

cancer came back. His doctor sneakily told him that he had a higher quality

version of the drug, and injected Mr. Wright with nothing more than water.

Again, his tumors went away because he believed they would.

In this TEDtalk, Lissa describes some of the countless occurrences with

measurable proof where people actually cure themselves. They grow back

hair, heal their ulcers, shrink tumors, and diminish all signs of sickness! Even

though this healing is initiated by the mind,  the body really reacts.

Do you think we have the power to heal ourselves? Take a look at the full
