Since time immemorial, the most fundamental and irreducible
factor in healing has been considered to be consciousness itself. For
nearly two centuries, however, consciousness has been almost excluded as
a meaningful issue in medicine. The future of healthcare must reclaim
the traditions of consciousness, or we shall falter badly. Dr. Dossey
will review several “unthinkable” areas in medicine in which
consciousness plays a key role.These are areas that, although documented
by careful research, have been sidelined because of the challenges they
present to the current mechanistic view of the healing response. These
will include (but will not be limited to): (1) Beliefs and
self-perceptions about one’s health, (2) anomalous or spontaneous
healings, (3) hypnosis, (4) contact with nature, (5) mental imagery, (6)
deliberately caused bodily damage, and (7) spirituality and prayer.Dr.
Dossey will show that the importance of consciousness in healing is not a
radical idea, but is prefigured in the visions of healing of icons such
as Sir William Osler. Dr. Larry Dossey is a former physician of internal medicine and former Chief of Staff of Medical City Dallas Hospital. He received his M.D. degree from Southwestern Medical School (Dallas), and trained in internal medicine at Parkland and the VA hospitals in Dallas. Dossey has lectured at medical schools and hospitals throughout the United States and abroad. In 1988 he delivered the annual Mahatma Gandhi Memorial Lecture in New Delhi, India, the only physician ever invited to do so. He is the author of eleven books dealing with consciousness, spirituality, and healing, including the New York Times bestseller Healing Words:The Power of Prayer and the Practice of Medicine, and most recently The Power of Premonitions: How Knowing the Future Can Shape Our Lives. Dr. Dossey is the former co-chairman of the Panel on Mind/Body Interventions, National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine, National Institutes of Health. He is the executive editor of the peer-reviewed journal EXPLORE:The Journal of Science and Healing. Dr. Dossey lectures around the world. He lives in Santa Fe with his wife Barbara, a nurse-consultant and the author of several award-winning books.

Many of our relationship problems originate from traumas encoded in the limbic system, and the negative beliefs which grew out of them, both of which tend to attract repetition of them. Also, there are often traumas which have occurred in the couple’s time together, which will interfere with productive communication. Until these traumas and negative beliefs are cleared it will be difficult for any couples’ therapy to be effective. This workshop will show how these impediments can be easily identified using muscle testing from applied kinesiology, and will demonstrate how energy psychology can be used effectively with couples to heal relationships.

PanelsResearch Panel: Consciousness Change as Evidence-Based Medicine For most of the history of science, consciousness has been viewed as an elusive phenomenon. To many biologists, it was merely an epiphenomenon of a complex brain, and studying changes in consciousness brought about by forgiveness, altruism, meditation, optimism, visualization, or energy medicine was thought to be, at best, "soft" science. But today, modern imaging methods such as fMRI and magnetoencephalography (MEG) are showing the previous view to be exactly backwards: as we change our consciousness, our brains respond. As we heal our psychological and spiritual wounds, our brains literally rewire themselves, and our bodies upregulate our immune system and many other organs. Join this distinguished panel to hear about some of the latest research showing the medical evidence for the powerful effects of consciousness on health and longevity.
Energy Psychology and related approaches such as EMDR, NLP, Matrix Energetics, Vipassana meditation and other approaches involve two- or three-modality stimulation of the brain and/or mind and/or body as a portion of their methodology, plus the pairing of positive with negative mental focus. In other words, there may be general principles that underlie the practices of TFT, EFT, TAT, WHEE and other EP modalities.
