In this workshop we'll review some of the major principles of mind-body medicine; discuss several of the most significant studies on psychosocial influences on health and illness; and touch on the utility of mind-body therapies, including relaxation therapies, meditation, hypnosis and guided imagery. We'll then explore the ways that physicians can integrate mind-body medicine into clinical practice and some of the avenues for obtaining deeper insight into, and more training in, its various approaches. There will be one or two experiential exercises and time for discussion.
