Prayer and Healing: What is the connection between mind, meaning, and illness?

Healing Words: The Power of Prayer and the Practice of Medicine

Dr. Dossey deals with the mind-body connection and the power of hope and healing that lies within each of us. Restoring the spiritual art of healing to the science of medicine, his books guide us toward a medicine that is both more effective and more humane. Studies show that almost everyone prays when faced with illness or grave injury. But can prayer actually help to heal us? According to Dossey, the answer is clearly "yes"!

Can prayer help heal what doctors and drugs alone can't?

The Faith Factor: Proof of the Healing Power of Prayer

Dr. Dale Matthews, armed with the best clinical and scientific data, confirms what many patients have long suspected but many doctors don't acknowledge: faith and religious practice can be valuable medicine. In this comprehensive book, Dr. Matthews, a leader in the field, seeks to revive the ancient connection between science and religion, restoring them to their original roles as the twin traditions of healing. The neglect of religious values and practices in medical settings has serious implications - not only for doctors, patients, and national health policy, but also in the treatment of hypertension, drug abuse, depression, cancer, heart disease, and more. Solidly grounded in the latest scientific evidence, The Faith Factor is filled with remarkable case histories from Dr. Matthews's own practice, where he prescribes both faith and medicine, prayer and Prozac.
