Partners in healing. Mind, body & prayer
Description
Body & Soul explores new techniques of preparing for surgery, including healing statements read to patients by their anesthesiologist7while they're unconscious! We go into the operating room to see these steps in action, and find out why patients who use this approach heal more quickly, go home sooner, and require from 23 to 50 percent less pain medication. We hear from Larry Dossey, M.D., about prayer as a "healing helper." Finally, we visit Silent Unity in Missouri, a free phone ministry where volunteers have been praying for complete strangers for more than 100 years.
