A fascinating marriage of science and spirituality, THE HEALING POWER OF FAITH uses the tools of science - double-blind research studies and analysis of tissue, blood levels, and hormones - to track the influence of religious beliefs on physical and mental health. The documented evidence shows how traditional religious practices like prayer and community service can raise white blood cell counts, improve immune system responses, and lower blood pressure. THE HEALING POWER OF FAITH is filled with inspiring case studies of remarkable recoveries from near-fatal illness, as well as heartwarming stories of how people from such diverse backgrounds as Evangelical Christianity, Orthodox Judaism, Catholicism, and Baptist Fundamentalism triumph over addiction, depression, marital problems, and other serious life stresses. With simple, practical methods for harnessing the power of faith, this cutting-edge book offers a fascinating, scientifically valid approach to healing.
