Doctor vs Healer: The Doctor, the fool's substitute to ease your pain with the intention of making a living and doesn't care if you actually heal or not. I could not pursue a medical career knowing what I know and have experiences for myself unless it healed others.
Well said no doctor knows or at least pretends to no the cause only to treat the symptoms.then the tablets given for that condition make another in time. Terrible

Knowing alone you are not well isn't enough, knowing the process of healing isn't enough ... To BE well you must DO well ... But I wholeheartedly support your Socratesian reminder "Knowing Thy Self" is at the core of "Healing Thy Self".

My father was a physician. As he aged he came to the same conclusion as has Dr. Rankin. One more thing. My physician, an internist, is forever throwing pills at me, and I am forever throwing them back at him. After looking at my blood work the other day he said, "Just keep doing what you are doing." There may yet be hope for him. I told him that nobody knows this body I'm living in better than I do, so we need to work together. He's treating me for hypertension and type II diabetes. I'm taking none of some of the pills and less of the others. And, I'm not doing those CT scans every year. I will, perhaps, do one every five years. He's freaked out by my smoking. I'm freaked out by the radiation exposure. I think Dr. Rankin is on to something here. Maybe I should make a gift of her book to my physician.
My grandfather was given 6 months to live because of skin cancer. Doctors told him to get a hobby to pass the time. He learned German, Gothic hand-writing and wood work, and died 30 years later of an aneurism.
I had asthma since I was 10-11 years old, and it is a terrible ailment. One day, I decided that "its enough, no more asthma for me," and the next morning was the nicest morning woke into for more than 40+ years! No asthma, no creaking in the chest, so easy to breathe. Of course, I had been meditating forfew years, learning to still my mind. The decision not to have asthma was taken in jiffy, and I haven't had a asthmatic seisure, or even coghing session, or wahtever for more than a decade! Today, I have the ability to talk to a sick person and tell "you are not going to have cancer any more!" or, anything else.

@@briansmith2836 many of us are struggling with the same negative blather in our mind and it took me 67 years to learn that the inner critic and negativity, the "go to" or default setting is really just a well practiced habit that we constantly reinforce with more negative thinking... Those inner thoughts were really affirmations; very effective affirmations but they're negative instead of positive.. It has taken a year but gradually we're able to change the inner narrative 🤗 I'm still developing it with DAILY intention setting and self love meditation... Many of us have decades of negative affirmations to undo but they really can be undone. Good luck to all of us... BTW, my debilitating spinal problems are significantly diminished... Not gone but definitely manageable. Cheers and good luck 🤞
According to research, some asthmatic people will be temporarily asthma-free during their adult years then asthma will come back again during senior years that is why it is recommended to exercise daily..you can search for the study online
So grateful for this ancient acknowledgement. At 76 I healed myself from an acute case of Lysteria (kills 50% of elders or immune-system compromised and I have both) due, I believe, to the unquestioned conviction I would heal, and to the loving relationships in my life. I was camping in the forest and took a motel room ($$!) for six weeks instead of doctor or hospital. It took several weeks to recover completely but when I did I was healthier than before I got sick! Go figure. Thank you Dr Lissa, I love your new attitude and stories.
Wonderful presentation thank you. I discovered the power of the mind many years ago . I had suffered from severe anxiety and depression as a child and teenager. Doctor prescribed medication but I was unable to work due to side effects of the medicine. So I studied meditation and Self-hypnosis and each night put myself into a semi-trance sending positive instructions to my subconscious each night before going to sleep . I had stopped the medication before beginning this self help treatment and at the 6 months stage I woke up one morning feeling a slight relief and lift from my chest which continued to noticeably improve over the next 3 months leading to 100% recovery. Greetings from James J in Limerick city Ireland
Love this talk. shared with family. pushing 70, and a long time ago, I decided that I am responsible for my Health Care. My doctor is responsible for disease management, which is fine, but I take care of food, exercise, and my own spirituality. I wake up every day grateful, go out side every morning summer, winter, spring fall. getting centered, starting the day with joy in life. cheers
This is scientifically proved, besides, if this was a scam what is she trying to sell u, this is great info, quantum physics is real, know self heal self
"What does your body need in order to heal?" Step 1: Believe it's possible to get Well. Step 2. Find the right Support. Step 3. Listen to your Intuition. Step 4: Diagnose underlying Triggers and optimize Relaxation responses. Step 5: Write the Prescription of 'What my Body Needs to Heal' and follow it. Step 6: Surrender
Thank you for being who you are ... thinking of others, and making the effort to write the list in the comments, such a compassionate act of kindness. ❤❤❤❤❤❤
A doctor that talks sense! When I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia, the doctor just handed me a prescription coldly and gave me no hope or insight in handling a chronic pain condition. I shortly developed Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and was bedridden. I had to heal myself, the biggest piece being with EFT (tapping) and releasing emotional pain from childhood and Wim Hof breathing technique.
Meditation calms the mind, it all comes down to how you view a situation. You can choose happy or sad. Most people find excuses to be sad, I don't like this or I don't like that. Chill out, learn to accept things as they are and you will soon find silly things no longer stress you out.
Sometimes it’s not that easy. You shouldn’t assume that everyone can easily escape a terrible situation. What might seem simple to you, doesn’t mean situations can be ignored by others.
Your thoughts shapes your daily realty every day and every second of your life.The majority of people have that capacity but they don't think about, they don't realize how important it is.
Wow I agree with her! Stress is so bad for us. I was under so much stress after becoming a mother. I've never felt that much anxiety and lack of control. Then a year later I get a cancer diagnosis at a young age. I know stress had everything to do with it. I really need to work on relaxation and finding things to do everyday that I enjoy.
1. Believe (u can heal urself) 2. A proper supprt (companion) 3. Listening to ur intuition ( wt does ur body need to heal) 4. Diagnosing d root cause 5. Writing ur own prescription 6. Surrender Danq..i am definitely goin to get ur book! :)
It's true, we can heal ourselves. I just willed away a couple of hand cramps, and I have willed pain away 1-2 other times as well. And if it's mental pain someone feels, simply call down the highest vibrations to wrap you in their healing energy, and if somehow that doesn't work, just simply take a shower and relax, and everything will feel so much better. People are too quick to prescribe drugs and other things, that's how the medical industry makes money. Although for more serious things like diseases and stuff, you should still see your doctor to get treatments to keep it from getting more serious, but it's ultimately up to you to heal yourself. Many people have recovered from "incurable" diseases because of their faith and the faith of their families. You don't even need to be religious to do this, it's a power that all of us have for we're all connected in spirit :)
Thank you for sharing this. Yes I know my body better than anyone. Great talk and insight. These are what I had thought through while I doing self healing 5 years ago. Blessings to you and Dr. Lissa Rankin.
So glad I found this content. Not a fan of pharmaceuticals. Believed eating well is Vitaly important. Glad to add to that calming your stress responses is vitally important. Thank you Dr Lissa❤
Your research into how our mind affects our physical health is so close to many of the spiritual teachings I have studied. Whether you believe in a Higher Power or not, truth is truth. All of what you say makes perfect sense. Thank you for your research and your book and lectures. I know they are helping so many people.
This is so good - I'd not fully realised the effects of hormones on body until now. Also the fact that placebo is fully recognised by trad. doctors, but they don't even bother to study it! Thanks so much for great learnings! Love it when scientifically trained docs go into alternative health and so do proper research, and altho there may not be too many double blind randomised trials on these methods, they look at best info out there at this present time. It's called progress, forward movement!
Beautiful and accurate info for whole-being awareness and healing from chronic stress. We can learn to meditate in varying ways for 2-5 minutes with great results throughout the day, & co-regulate with others, along with eating our kale! Thank you, Lissa.
Thank you for admitting YOU are not the healer, the person is the Healer. Billy Best had a spontaneous remission because he had faith and he was a teen. I never forgot his story. Believing matters. However, if you have a ruptured appendix get a surgeon. What is making you bitter? Get rid of that and heal.
Both are true. One is usually far easier to do than the other. Every thought you think is either healing or harming to your body. The strength of the emotion gives an indication of how healing or harming the thought is.
In my respectful appreciation to Dr. Lissa Rankin, M.D and mindful viewers. I could not remember how many times I have contacted with your groups to follow up, enjoy, evaluate all valuable health care research, experiences. May I comment: "I strongly agree with what you have done to share with public since I have trained, researched and applied all skillful, helpful, useful professions as you are to assist people since 1970 in the under development nation of war, Vietnam." I have made people who I serve to extend their life and enjoy their life without fear before transferring to next life. Secondly, caption on video is useful to me because English is my second language even I have published, public speaking in English worldwide. May I share this video to worldwide?
It is now Nov.2015. This presentation was a divine appointment for me. I was already on the path but Dr. Rankin filled in some empty spaces. Thank you for spreading the word about seeking "relaxation responses" for healing our bodies as well as our lives! "Transformation by the renewing of our mind."
One of the greatest videos I've ever seen, very helpful for health anxiety for hypochondriacs. I'm going to read Mind over Medicine, God bless and thank you!
My mantra is Christ. The Holy Scriptures teach this same concept. One of my favorite passages is found in the Book of Mormon: Another Testament of Jesus Christ. "…If ye would hearken unto the Spirit which teacheth a man to pray, ye would know that ye must pray; for the evil spirit teacheth not a man to pray, but teacheth him that he must not pray. But behold, I say unto you that ye must pray always, and not faint; that ye must not perform any thing unto the Lord save in the first place ye shall pray unto the Father in the name of Christ, that he will consecrate thy performance unto thee, that thy performance may be for the welfare of thy soul.” (2 Nephi 32:8-9) Praying always, meditating upon the good word of Christ, is the most sanctifying and healing process there is.
Thank you very much for sharing this good news!! I believe healing comes from Jesus Christ, but it is great to see the physical, scientific explanation behind how God heals us!
@@pamelabrinker Hello Pamela. Great to hear from you. Her presentation really caught my eye when I heard her speak about the patient by the name of Mr. Wright, and the test drug called Krebozian. I had read of the account in law of attraction books many years earlier.
Am all about practicality. Am trying to figure out what courses to take in Quantum University. Am already a member of Unity Church. From my childhood I had wanted to become a medical doctor. It didn't turn out that way. However, I became a social scientist. Trust me I became a metaphysician, meaning that I have practiced "Mind over matter". Today you taught "Mind Over Medicine". I attended College of Metaphysics in Missouri at a branch on Hanging Moose Rd. Jackson Mississippi. Now what? Growth is all I know. Mathematics, Physics, & Biology were not my smooth sailing subjects in High School nor college. That was why I couldn't pursue Medicine. I withdrew passing from Registered School of Nursing, Hinds Junior College. Rankin County MS. 1981 or so. Is that your county? 😍. Your voice another voice of God. You speech is a great guidance & confirmation to me that I am on the right track. Remain beautiful, & blessed.
Im glad I found this video. Everything that she talked about it I came to natural conclusion myself, healed myself and my clients. However in my psychotherapy session neuro mirroring happens it is when my body and clients body “tuned in”. As Dr. said amygdala is relaxing and clients could finally feel their own body and have a deep connection with their True Self, body and mind then true healing happens.
As a parent of 3 adult kids who chose to not communicate with or see us too often (as much as we'd prefer), I know their priorities impact us as parents. Yet I also don't want to be a demonstrative parent overstepping my relationship. We just need to let them know we're here for them, always 💕 them & spending time with them, and🙏🏼 they'll give of themselves to benefit our relationship (which boosts our wellness). In the meantime, I've chosen to embrace a mentoring relationship of mothers of preschoolers/ MOPS, and I ❤️ these sweet ladies. It never replaces how we miss our kids.
Totally Agree. the clients I have that do the best believe they can do the best and understand the body, mind and spirit are one. Those that keep getting stuck on what they have been told (that they cannot do anything about their chronic illness for example) take much longer to heal even when we change food, movement and stress. In my case, I work mostly with diabetics who have been told it is purely genetic which is purely nonsense.
EXCELLENT EFFECT- better than reading the book, which I did. Very useful! Grateful to Google Talk for this Crucial Platform for Sharing not just important Information but applicable Knowledge🙌💯 God Bless U All 🙏
My approach to having a high likelihood of an early death due to years of industrial chemical exposure and having CPTSD from sexual abuse is dedicating my being to completing what I would like to contribute to humanity before I die... and I feel great! A wonderful book that speaks to this topic "The body is the barometer of the soul so be your own Doctor" Anita Noontil. Dr. Masara Emoto's work on intent and the corresponding shifts in the molecular structure of water (which the majority of our physical being is made from) may also be of interest. You're welcome! :)
I find you so invigorating. I attend a Cancer Wellness Program for Survivors and those just beginning the journey of Chemo and/or Radiation. It's all free the delicious healthy foods and talks on some of the very things you were/are. Mindfulness ifs the theme throughout. We attend Gentle Yoga, Jesus, Buda etc, and some of the great leaders of Mindfulness. Centering Prayer, Silent days of Retreat.; thought provoking questions on our new journey in a different light. We have a physical therapist, Nutritionists, LCP's and LCSWs. All there to guide us, to challenge us. We have Top Chiefs from around the city cook a meal for us of healthy greens, quinoa, etc. Sometimes, I have to pinch myself that I'm part of this wonderful program. Namaste, Judi
Diet and stress play a massive massive part in cancer something mainstream have no clue how to CURE. Immune system breaks down because of body being depleted of enough nutrients. Stress shuts the cells stops the cells getting enough nutrition or oxygen so they mutate into cancer cells. I DO believe its mind over matter along with adjsuting a nutrient dense diet with loads of organic raw live veggies and fruits along with other cooked foods if we wish. Great video though enjoyed it but we do need to take responsbility in order to learn how to heal our bodies from cancer its not just BAD LUCK.
Great enlightenment that grants self-empowerment for you to build a healthy body & life! Getting her book & taking her training ASAP! Bless You Lissa! You should too! Peace!
Dr. Rankin(her grandfather) lived here in Eugene, Oregon & was an absolute Character! He drove from one of his rentals to the next in a rust bucket land yacht Cadillac. He owned several of the oldest homes in Eugene(affordable family homes that we crusty 1980’s Acid Punks lived in cause they were affordable with 5-8 people helping with rent. Doc Rankin died in the late 1990’s l,..he is missed. There are less & less of those beautiful old Eccentric Types gracing the face of this earth…those who look a fright yet are incredibly friendly & loving & are brilliant when honestly engaged in conversation. Doc Rankin was her Grandfather….
I watched a special on the worlds longest living and fell in love with Icaria. This is the future of health and healing. Not bragging at all but believe all of this and at 70 am in perfect health, and take no perscriptions, have no doctor. I feel that eating stressed unhappy animals creates sickness in us. Lissa ROCKS!!!! GREAT INFO thank you good doctor. I gave up high stress jobs for low paying stress free ones. See you in Icaria.
The question 'can the mind heal the body? can be answered affirmative, but the body heals itself all the time anyway, as part of the second phase of the natural two-phased biological processes we mistakenly call 'diseases' (read up on 'German New Medicine' for this). I quit my job and everything to move abroad and marry this wonderful woman I met on the internet (sounds stupid, I know) and ended up broke but so damn healthy it's unbelievable. Migraine, chronic back ache, colds/flu, etc. became things of the past and so yes, it's all about believes/conditioning/expectations... Live the mystery and feel how you ARE life. By the way, that was in 2012 and we're still together and crazy in love :-)
+ Mayank Singh Gaur There sure is a huge difference in the (conditioned) perception of all kinds of 'diseases'. Nobody will experience life threatening danger and desperation when diagnosed with migraine, chronic back ache, the flu, etc., but when it comes to cancer it's a totally different picture. The idea of having to undergo horrible chemo-poison treatments is enough to cause despair in most people and it takes the medical dogma, that only this barbaric treatment (radiation being another one) can stop cancer, to drive people into the greedy arms of big pharma. Our whole health care system ('sickness system' would be a better term) is build around making people feel scared/weary/worried about their health all the time - look at all the advertising for preventive tests/screenings and warnings we get bombarded with continuously - and the scary medical predictions (so many people will get so or so disease this year and so many will die of it...) makes up for the 'medical establishment' being the worse 'nocebo' (counter part of the placebo effect) imaginable. The sickness industry puts negative health expectations into people and it works beautifully... Most people expect to get sick at some point and also expect traditional medicine (mainly pharmaceutical chemicals) to be their best bet to get well again - of course their's also the pressure to turn up at the work place every day and, for the elderly, to slow down the process of getting older (which is synonymous for getting more and more sick for most of them, another medical dogma - what really accounts for 'old age symptoms' is mainly the breaking down of your feeling of self worth). If this makes sense to anyone, I advice you to read about 'German New Medicine', 'placebo and nocebo effect' and 'law of expectation' or 'self fulfilling prophecy'. Changing your negative believes/expectations is not an easy task, taking into account the way we get negatively conditioned from the day we are born, but it can be done... Good luck to all!
Very thanks for your detailed reply, I agree with you My mom has stage 4 her2+ very aggressive breast cancer form 18 years she is still alive because she is not educated that much to do research in internet. Her cancer return back and present expensive combo stop working, she is now on other crombo " xeloda + tykerb " I worried so much when I do research on internet because I found only negative and depressing stories, I feel very bad when my mom innocently says " I will be cure " no problem, these sentence worried me lot because I know the reality of this disease and limited treatment options, However she is religious and still believing that god will cure her some day, may be this placebo effect might work, even I am now trying a new concept " I told her yesterday night, I saw god "who she believe" 3 times in dream, he told me your mom will be cure, because I am trying to create artificial placebo effect on her mind, Hopefully this work, I like to talk with you --- English is my second language, thanks again
+Mayank Singh Gaur You're very welcome. Here's some more information no oncologist will ever give to his or her patients: "Therefore, for every 100 non palpable cancers found through mammography alone, 54 would presumably have gone away (174 / 324 × 100 = 54%)." www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3320224/ It's my guess that a lot of the 46% of cancers that do get found would also go away if the patients were not scared (cancer diagnosis) and poisoned (chemotherapy) by their oncologists. This is why it's so important to learn about 'German New Medicine' (GNM) and also about the placebo and nocebo effect (doctors/oncologists being the worse nocebo's of all) BEFORE you get caught in the maze of 'preventive screenings' and 'timely checkups', etc. GNM is the only theory that explains why the immune system doesn't attack tumors and the body makes new blood vessels to support tumors (angiogenesis). Your oncologist believes that cells go crazy because of 'random mutations' of the DNA or because of some 'defective genes' (or whatever theory they make up about cancer) and then assumes these crazy cells all of a sudden become smart enough to trick the immune system and the body to leave them alone and even supply them with extra blood... Of course this also explains why the medical establishment has never tested GNM...
thanks for the link, Now I am search little more about baking soda because I saw some more like too related to baking soda and alternative treatment, thanks for your reply, I ll reply you soon again
I would argue it's not the things themselves that are important but how one thinks about them. For instance, stress is not a given in a busy work environment but how you feel about that environment. Sense of community is not necessary unless you feel lonely from lack of it, and so on. Not everyone requires the same environment. It's perception rather than specific "things" that matters.
Mi queridísima eres la estrella más brillante en el Universe me alumbraste y me levantaste mi espíritu con tus palabras quiero estoy lista para leer tu libro pero no puedo ahora comprarlo. Lo pediré a mis amigos que me preguntan “que necesitas”
Thank you for being an open minded MD. What a fabulous presentation! Interesting that I hear stories like this regularly so it doesn't surprise me in the least that folks heal completely from terminal illnesses. What does surprise me is how the Medical community in general, doctors refuse to see how anything other than their prescribed medications will help, which in many cases DO NOT help. Accolades to you, and to Google for allowing her to speak! Edited - I see that this presentation was 9 years ago, and Google was acquired by Alphabet in 2015. That explains it to me at least.
I believed her a little less when she said meerkats are prairie dogs...that, the fact that she skimmed over explaining the suspiciously wide range of 18%-80% effectiveness of placebos and the fact that at least up until that point she (as a responsible doctor should) had not once stressed that pharmaceutical treatments are by and large extremely effective at treating the illnesses they are developed for, and people should listen and strongly consider their doctor's assessment and treatment advice. I am not saying mindset is not a powerful tool, but giving people the idea that modern medicine is inferior or unnecessary is dangerous.
I was diagnosed with Myelodysplastic Syndrome RA in 1997-98 with median life of only 3-5 years. After 150 + blood transfusions I am fully recovered and still alive!! only medicine was MIND OVER Matter and following intuition.
I have been teaching and educating my patients about the Mind-body connection...we are not just a body..we are a mind and a body....and I have seen first hand fabulous results...there is much in healing that we cannot explain...but that doesnt mean that unconventional methods do not work...
There is wisdom in allowing the body to heal itself. Medical treatment has its place, but we have to live wthin our bodies and choose the activities that will maximize our chances for good health. Enlightened medical professionals would be a lot easier for patients to listen to. As you might tell from my picture, I am very curious about guys who "re-grew some hair when participating in Rogaine studies even though they were taking a placebo". I want me some of that!
This is exactly what I needed to hear after dealing with seven months of post concussion syndrome I need to hear this and I need to believe and it’s funny just a couple days ago I said I believe and things of changed this just cements everything that I’m putting into place thank you thank you thank you thank you

According to research, some asthmatic people will be temporarily asthma-free during their adult years then asthma will come back again during senior years that is why it is recommended to exercise daily..you can search for the study online
So grateful for this ancient acknowledgement. At 76 I healed myself from an acute case of Lysteria (kills 50% of elders or immune-system compromised and I have both) due, I believe, to the unquestioned conviction I would heal, and to the loving relationships in my life. I was camping in the forest and took a motel room ($$!) for six weeks instead of doctor or hospital. It took several weeks to recover completely but when I did I was healthier than before I got sick! Go figure. Thank you Dr Lissa, I love your new attitude and stories.
BRAVO Dr. Rankin! This is exactly what we learn in Yoga and Yoga Therapy! We need more Doctor like you!
The doctor 😷 who said, "I don't heal I just connect you to the healer within, "is my kinda bedside manner
Yes! ❤️
100% True
Wonderful presentation thank you. I discovered the power of the mind many years ago . I had suffered from severe anxiety and depression as a child and teenager. Doctor prescribed medication but I was unable to work due to side effects of the medicine. So I studied meditation and Self-hypnosis and each night put myself into a semi-trance sending positive instructions to my subconscious each night before going to sleep . I had stopped the medication before beginning this self help treatment and at the 6 months stage I woke up one morning feeling a slight relief and lift from my chest which continued to noticeably improve over the next 3 months leading to 100% recovery. Greetings from James J in Limerick city Ireland
really inspiring and gives me hope ~ it pulled me out of my depression today & Dr. Lissa Rankin's Ted Talks. Thank you.
how u feeling now ma
Nice to read that!
Are you here?
Such a refreshing talk! Science, mindfulness, and spirituality used together are an awesome combination.
Love this talk. shared with family. pushing 70, and a long time ago, I decided that I am responsible for my Health Care. My doctor is responsible for disease management, which is fine, but I take care of food, exercise, and my own spirituality. I wake up every day grateful, go out side every morning summer, winter, spring fall. getting centered, starting the day with joy in life. cheers
This is scientifically proved, besides, if this was a scam what is she trying to sell u, this is great info, quantum physics is real, know self heal self
Her book.
@@doza2704 okay but this was a whole 52 minute lecture and had great info
"What does your body need in order to heal?"
Step 1: Believe it's possible to get Well.
Step 2. Find the right Support.
Step 3. Listen to your Intuition.
Step 4: Diagnose underlying Triggers and optimize Relaxation responses.
Step 5: Write the Prescription of 'What my Body Needs to Heal' and follow it.
Step 6: Surrender
Thank you 🙏 for that summary! I just wrote it in my health journal😀
Thank you for being who you are ... thinking of others, and making the effort to write the list in the comments, such a compassionate act of kindness.
❤❤❤❤❤❤
A doctor that talks sense!
When I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia, the doctor just handed me a prescription coldly and gave me no hope or insight in handling a chronic pain condition. I shortly developed Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and was bedridden. I had to heal myself, the biggest piece being with EFT (tapping) and releasing emotional pain from childhood and Wim Hof breathing technique.
Eveline L. Are you completeky healed now?
You completely healed now?
Meditation calms the mind, it all comes down to how you view a situation. You can choose happy or sad. Most people find excuses to be sad, I don't like this or I don't like that. Chill out, learn to accept things as they are and you will soon find silly things no longer stress you out.
If only life were so simple!
However, Meditation is about the only way to stay in Mindful Presence, necessary for daily peace of mind.
@@kirstinstrand6292 life is simple enough to study when you know the isness of things as they are.
Sometimes it’s not that easy. You shouldn’t assume that everyone can easily escape a terrible situation. What might seem simple to you, doesn’t mean situations can be ignored by others.
@@ToddSloanIAAN ❤
Your thoughts shapes your daily realty every day and every second of your life.The majority of people have that capacity but they don't think about, they don't realize how important it is.
merci, thank you
Wow I agree with her! Stress is so bad for us. I was under so much stress after becoming a mother. I've never felt that much anxiety and lack of control. Then a year later I get a cancer diagnosis at a young age. I know stress had everything to do with it. I really need to work on relaxation and finding things to do everyday that I enjoy.
Hope you are well ~
1. Believe (u can heal urself)
2. A proper supprt (companion)
3. Listening to ur intuition ( wt does ur body need to heal)
4. Diagnosing d root cause
5. Writing ur own prescription
6. Surrender
Danq..i am definitely goin to get ur book! :)
Love you doctor…. You are doing a great service.. people like you should live for 200 years , so we could have guidance and hope
Love her book so much- we need MORE doctors like this!
yeah agreed.
Dear Google, "Thank you for coming"?, really?. Dr Lissa has given brilliant insights that we can do right away, she deserves more than that
It's true, we can heal ourselves. I just willed away a couple of hand cramps, and I have willed pain away 1-2 other times as well. And if it's mental pain someone feels, simply call down the highest vibrations to wrap you in their healing energy, and if somehow that doesn't work, just simply take a shower and relax, and everything will feel so much better. People are too quick to prescribe drugs and other things, that's how the medical industry makes money. Although for more serious things like diseases and stuff, you should still see your doctor to get treatments to keep it from getting more serious, but it's ultimately up to you to heal yourself. Many people have recovered from "incurable" diseases because of their faith and the faith of their families. You don't even need to be religious to do this, it's a power that all of us have for we're all connected in spirit :)
Aaron Richards
Oops, meant to say frequencies, vibrations are what people feel from those frequencies.
Aaron Richards
Thank you for sharing this. Yes I know my body better than anyone. Great talk and insight. These are what I had thought through while I doing self healing 5 years ago. Blessings to you and Dr. Lissa Rankin.
So glad I found this content. Not a fan of pharmaceuticals. Believed eating well is Vitaly important. Glad to add to that calming your stress responses is vitally important. Thank you Dr Lissa❤
Your research into how our mind affects our physical health is so close to many of the spiritual teachings I have studied. Whether you believe in a Higher Power or not, truth is truth. All of what you say makes perfect sense. Thank you for your research and your book and lectures. I know they are helping so many people.
Interesting
FASCINATING. Worth every minute. Thank you!
This is indeed lifechanging. Now the question is do you nod your head and let this info go or do you choose to actively practice it
For me, since watching it, actively practice it. It works, I swear it does. :)
@@DenaDaSilva Hi,how are you these days, hope your doing well.
this last part about sickness not being our fault is wonderfully true and so refreshing among these alternative teachers.
what if we can't afford to make those changes... like not everyone can become rich and not worry about money or quit their job
Exactly
Wow! An absolute eye opener. We have to be our own doctors.
This is so good - I'd not fully realised the effects of hormones on body until now. Also the fact that placebo is fully recognised by trad. doctors, but they don't even bother to study it! Thanks so much for great learnings! Love it when scientifically trained docs go into alternative health and so do proper research, and altho there may not be too many double blind randomised trials on these methods, they look at best info out there at this present time. It's called progress, forward movement!
I love how happy she is while talking about this!
We have to reconnect with nature and return to a simple life because stress and anxiety are killing us.
🤔🤗😁
Thank you very much. I have experienced your teachings in the past, with a very positive result. I can confirm that what you are telling is true.
Beautiful and accurate info for whole-being awareness and healing from chronic stress. We can learn to meditate in varying ways for 2-5 minutes with great results throughout the day, & co-regulate with others, along with eating our kale! Thank you, Lissa.
Thank you for admitting YOU are not the healer, the person is the Healer. Billy Best had a spontaneous remission because he had faith and he was a teen. I never forgot his story. Believing matters. However, if you have a ruptured appendix get a surgeon. What is making you bitter? Get rid of that and heal.
Both are true. One is usually far easier to do than the other. Every thought you think is either healing or harming to your body. The strength of the emotion gives an indication of how healing or harming the thought is.
Thank you to whoever posted this video. I enjoyed it.
Wonderful! I feel so lucky to be here listening to Lissa' s speech. I will buy her book as soon as possible. Amen! 🙏
In my respectful appreciation to Dr. Lissa Rankin, M.D and mindful viewers.
I could not remember how many times I have contacted with your groups to follow up, enjoy, evaluate all valuable health care research, experiences. May I comment: "I strongly agree with what you have done to share with public since I have trained, researched and applied all skillful, helpful, useful professions as you are to assist people since 1970 in the under development nation of war, Vietnam." I have made people who I serve to extend their life and enjoy their life without fear before transferring to next life.
Secondly, caption on video is useful to me because English is my second language even I have published, public speaking in English worldwide. May I share this video to worldwide?
Thankyou. Thankyou very very much.
Your Video helped me cure my illness just by myself.
May God bless you.
Omer Chaudhry how to contact you sir ?
Can contact me via email (ojc1001@gmail.com)
nigga u lying. wat illness
Omar do you still have the same email?
@@omerchaudhry4298 how do u heal yourself.. Pls advise
It is now Nov.2015. This presentation was a divine appointment for me. I was already on the path but Dr. Rankin filled in some empty spaces. Thank you for spreading the word about seeking "relaxation responses" for healing our bodies as well as our lives! "Transformation by the renewing of our mind."
This doctor has a beautiful light shining from within.
Dr Joe Dispenza covered this ground too and wrote 'You Are the Placebo' and has offered meditations that also have results like yours. Thank you!
Inspirational video, love listening to holistic ways of healing thank you.
This doctor is amazing as I been trying to say to people all of us are own doctor we now what is good for are selves
One of the greatest videos I've ever seen, very helpful for health anxiety for hypochondriacs. I'm going to read Mind over Medicine, God bless and thank you!
My mantra is Christ.
The Holy Scriptures teach this same concept. One of my favorite passages is found in the Book of Mormon: Another Testament of Jesus Christ.
"…If ye would hearken unto the Spirit which teacheth a man to pray, ye would know that ye must pray; for the evil spirit teacheth not a man to pray, but teacheth him that he must not pray. But behold, I say unto you that ye must pray always, and not faint; that ye must not perform any thing unto the Lord save in the first place ye shall pray unto the Father in the name of Christ, that he will consecrate thy performance unto thee, that thy performance may be for the welfare of thy soul.” (2 Nephi 32:8-9)
Praying always, meditating upon the good word of Christ, is the most sanctifying and healing process there is.
Thank you very much for sharing this good news!! I believe healing comes from Jesus Christ, but it is great to see the physical, scientific explanation behind how God heals us!
Our thoughts, feelings, emotions, belief, perception are energy which affects our reality including our body/health.
Thank you Dr Lissa ~ I learned a lot from you today. Bless you. 🌱🧘🏼♀️🪷
Blessings to you for sharing your wisdom with your patients and the world. This is absolutely true--I know it to be so.
Yes, I'm with you Arthur!
@@pamelabrinker Hello Pamela. Great to hear from you. Her presentation really caught my eye when I heard her speak about the patient by the name of Mr. Wright, and the test drug called Krebozian. I had read of the account in law of attraction books many years earlier.
Am all about practicality. Am trying to figure out what courses to take in Quantum University. Am already a member of Unity Church. From my childhood I had wanted to become a medical doctor. It didn't turn out that way. However, I became a social scientist. Trust me I became a metaphysician, meaning that I have practiced "Mind over matter". Today you taught "Mind Over Medicine". I attended College of Metaphysics in Missouri at a branch on Hanging Moose Rd. Jackson Mississippi. Now what? Growth is all I know. Mathematics, Physics, & Biology were not my smooth sailing subjects in High School nor college. That was why I couldn't pursue Medicine. I withdrew passing from Registered School of Nursing, Hinds Junior College. Rankin County MS. 1981 or so. Is that your county? 😍. Your voice another voice of God.
You speech is a great guidance & confirmation to me that I am on the right track. Remain beautiful, & blessed.
Im glad I found this video. Everything that she talked about it I came to natural conclusion myself, healed myself and my clients. However in my psychotherapy session neuro mirroring happens it is when my body and clients body “tuned in”. As Dr. said amygdala is relaxing and clients could finally feel their own body and have a deep connection with their True Self, body and mind then true healing happens.
As a parent of 3 adult kids who chose to not communicate with or see us too often (as much as we'd prefer), I know their priorities impact us as parents. Yet I also don't want to be a demonstrative parent overstepping my relationship. We just need to let them know we're here for them, always 💕 them & spending time with them, and🙏🏼 they'll give of themselves to benefit our relationship (which boosts our wellness). In the meantime, I've chosen to embrace a mentoring relationship of mothers of preschoolers/ MOPS, and I ❤️ these sweet ladies. It never replaces how we miss our kids.
Totally Agree. the clients I have that do the best believe they can do the best and understand the body, mind and spirit are one. Those that keep getting stuck on what they have been told (that they cannot do anything about their chronic illness for example) take much longer to heal even when we change food, movement and stress. In my case, I work mostly with diabetics who have been told it is purely genetic which is purely nonsense.
EXCELLENT EFFECT- better than reading the book, which I did. Very useful! Grateful to Google Talk for this Crucial Platform for Sharing not just important Information but applicable Knowledge🙌💯
God Bless U All 🙏
This is a great message for everyone to heal their body.
My approach to having a high likelihood of an early death due to years of industrial chemical exposure and having CPTSD from sexual abuse is dedicating my being to completing what I would like to contribute to humanity before I die... and I feel great! A wonderful book that speaks to this topic "The body is the barometer of the soul so be your own Doctor" Anita Noontil. Dr. Masara Emoto's work on intent and the corresponding shifts in the molecular structure of water (which the majority of our physical being is made from) may also be of interest. You're welcome! :)
I love Dr emotos book
How does this explain childhood cancer?
This is a gold mine
Brilliant... That's why they say God is within us.
I find you so invigorating. I attend a Cancer Wellness Program for Survivors and those just beginning the journey of Chemo and/or Radiation. It's all free the delicious healthy foods and talks on some of the very things you were/are. Mindfulness ifs the theme throughout. We attend Gentle Yoga,
Jesus, Buda etc, and some of the great leaders of Mindfulness. Centering Prayer, Silent days of Retreat.; thought provoking questions on our new journey in a different light. We have a physical therapist, Nutritionists, LCP's and LCSWs. All there to guide us, to challenge us. We have Top Chiefs from around the city cook a meal for us of healthy greens, quinoa, etc. Sometimes, I have to pinch myself that I'm part of this wonderful program.
Namaste, Judi
Amazing speech an eye opener for everyone In India our saints use to heal themselves by yoga and meditation thousands years back
This is one of the best talks I ever heard . Thank you for this :)
We have to be our own doctors that is for sure. No more giving our power away to others.
Lady..you are a breath of fresh air. Just what I need right now. Thank you. Will read your book for sure.
Diet and stress play a massive massive part in cancer something mainstream have no clue how to CURE. Immune system breaks down because of body being depleted of enough nutrients. Stress shuts the cells stops the cells getting enough nutrition or oxygen so they mutate into cancer cells. I DO believe its mind over matter along with adjsuting a nutrient dense diet with loads of organic raw live veggies and fruits along with other cooked foods if we wish. Great video though enjoyed it but we do need to take responsbility in order to learn how to heal our bodies from cancer its not just BAD LUCK.
Wow, thanks so much, this is some of the best council I’ve ever heard!
Great enlightenment that grants self-empowerment for you to build a healthy body & life! Getting her book & taking her training ASAP! Bless You Lissa! You should too! Peace!
Dr. Rankin(her grandfather) lived here in Eugene, Oregon & was an absolute Character! He drove from one of his rentals to the next in a rust bucket land yacht Cadillac. He owned several of the oldest homes in Eugene(affordable family homes that we crusty 1980’s Acid Punks lived in cause they were affordable with 5-8 people helping with rent. Doc Rankin died in the late 1990’s l,..he is missed. There are less & less of those beautiful old Eccentric Types gracing the face of this earth…those who look a fright yet are incredibly friendly & loving & are brilliant when honestly engaged in conversation.
Doc Rankin was her Grandfather….
Thank you so much for your great in service humanities and new world Happy New Year 2023 thank you Dr. Lissa Rankin
I watched a special on the worlds longest living and fell in love with Icaria. This is the future of health and healing. Not bragging at all but believe all of this and at 70 am in perfect health, and take no perscriptions, have no doctor. I feel that eating stressed unhappy animals creates sickness in us. Lissa ROCKS!!!! GREAT INFO thank you good doctor. I gave up high stress jobs for low paying stress free ones.
See you in Icaria.
LOVED THIS TALK AND IT HELPED ME TO APPRECIATE SOME STRESS REDUCING DECISIONS THAT I HAVE MADE RECENTLY.
The question 'can the mind heal the body? can be answered affirmative, but the body heals itself all the time anyway, as part of the second phase of the natural two-phased biological processes we mistakenly call 'diseases' (read up on 'German New Medicine' for this). I quit my job and everything to move abroad and marry this wonderful woman I met on the internet (sounds stupid, I know) and ended up broke but so damn healthy it's unbelievable. Migraine, chronic back ache, colds/flu, etc. became things of the past and so yes, it's all about believes/conditioning/expectations... Live the mystery and feel how you ARE life. By the way, that was in 2012 and we're still together and crazy in love :-)
There is huge huge Difference B/w Migraine, chronic back ache, colds/flu and Cancer, But there is still hope
+ Mayank Singh Gaur There sure is a huge difference in the (conditioned) perception of all kinds of 'diseases'. Nobody will experience life threatening danger and desperation when diagnosed with migraine, chronic back ache, the flu, etc., but when it comes to cancer it's a totally different picture. The idea of having to undergo horrible chemo-poison treatments is enough to cause despair in most people and it takes the medical dogma, that only this barbaric treatment (radiation being another one) can stop cancer, to drive people into the greedy arms of big pharma. Our whole health care system ('sickness system' would be a better term) is build around making people feel scared/weary/worried about their health all the time - look at all the advertising for preventive tests/screenings and warnings we get bombarded with continuously - and the scary medical predictions (so many people will get so or so disease this year and so many will die of it...) makes up for the 'medical establishment' being the worse 'nocebo' (counter part of the placebo effect) imaginable. The sickness industry puts negative health expectations into people and it works beautifully... Most people expect to get sick at some point and also expect traditional medicine (mainly pharmaceutical chemicals) to be their best bet to get well again - of course their's also the pressure to turn up at the work place every day and, for the elderly, to slow down the process of getting older (which is synonymous for getting more and more sick for most of them, another medical dogma - what really accounts for 'old age symptoms' is mainly the breaking down of your feeling of self worth). If this makes sense to anyone, I advice you to read about 'German New Medicine', 'placebo and nocebo effect' and 'law of expectation' or 'self fulfilling prophecy'. Changing your negative believes/expectations is not an easy task, taking into account the way we get negatively conditioned from the day we are born, but it can be done... Good luck to all!
Very thanks for your detailed reply, I agree with you
My mom has stage 4 her2+ very aggressive breast cancer form 18 years she is still alive because she is not educated that much to do research in internet. Her cancer return back and present expensive combo stop working, she is now on other crombo " xeloda + tykerb " I worried so much when I do research on internet because I found only negative and depressing stories, I feel very bad when my mom innocently says " I will be cure " no problem, these sentence worried me lot because I know the reality of this disease and limited treatment options, However she is religious and still believing that god will cure her some day, may be this placebo effect might work, even I am now trying a new concept " I told her yesterday night, I saw god "who she believe" 3 times in dream, he told me your mom will be cure, because I am trying to create artificial placebo effect on her mind, Hopefully this work, I like to talk with you --- English is my second language, thanks again
+Mayank Singh Gaur You're very welcome. Here's some more information no oncologist will ever give to his or her patients: "Therefore, for every 100 non palpable cancers found through mammography alone, 54 would presumably have gone away (174 / 324 × 100 = 54%)." www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3320224/ It's my guess that a lot of the 46% of cancers that do get found would also go away if the patients were not scared (cancer diagnosis) and poisoned (chemotherapy) by their oncologists. This is why it's so important to learn about 'German New Medicine' (GNM) and also about the placebo and nocebo effect (doctors/oncologists being the worse nocebo's of all) BEFORE you get caught in the maze of 'preventive screenings' and 'timely checkups', etc. GNM is the only theory that explains why the immune system doesn't attack tumors and the body makes new blood vessels to support tumors (angiogenesis). Your oncologist believes that cells go crazy because of 'random mutations' of the DNA or because of some 'defective genes' (or whatever theory they make up about cancer) and then assumes these crazy cells all of a sudden become smart enough to trick the immune system and the body to leave them alone and even supply them with extra blood... Of course this also explains why the medical establishment has never tested GNM...
thanks for the link, Now I am search little more about baking soda because I saw some more like too related to baking soda and alternative treatment, thanks for your reply, I ll reply you soon again
I've taken most of these classes. A long time ago. I use it for mental exercise.
I would argue it's not the things themselves that are important but how one thinks about them. For instance, stress is not a given in a busy work environment but how you feel about that environment. Sense of community is not necessary unless you feel lonely from lack of it, and so on. Not everyone requires the same environment. It's perception rather than specific "things" that matters.
Love you Lissa! Our world REALLY needs you! Thank you!
I literally just had my 2nd stress induced heart attack 3 weeks ago and they figured out that my stress hormones are causing my heart to spasm.
10 min into it and she is absolutely wonderful and hypnotizing ! Strongly recommend it!
Love this video so I will continue my meditation to increase my subconscious mind so that it can heal it self.

Mi queridísima eres la estrella más brillante en el Universe me alumbraste y me levantaste mi espíritu con tus palabras quiero estoy lista para leer tu libro pero no puedo ahora comprarlo. Lo pediré a mis amigos que me preguntan “que necesitas”
Thank you for being an open minded MD. What a fabulous presentation! Interesting that I hear stories like this regularly so it doesn't surprise me in the least that folks heal completely from terminal illnesses. What does surprise me is how the Medical community in general, doctors refuse to see how anything other than their prescribed medications will help, which in many cases DO NOT help. Accolades to you, and to Google for allowing her to speak! Edited - I see that this presentation was 9 years ago, and Google was acquired by Alphabet in 2015. That explains it to me at least.
🙏
I believed her a little less when she said meerkats are prairie dogs...that, the fact that she skimmed over explaining the suspiciously wide range of 18%-80% effectiveness of placebos and the fact that at least up until that point she (as a responsible doctor should) had not once stressed that pharmaceutical treatments are by and large extremely effective at treating the illnesses they are developed for, and people should listen and strongly consider their doctor's assessment and treatment advice. I am not saying mindset is not a powerful tool, but giving people the idea that modern medicine is inferior or unnecessary is dangerous.

I was diagnosed with Myelodysplastic Syndrome RA in 1997-98 with median life of only 3-5 years. After 150 + blood transfusions I am fully recovered and still alive!! only medicine was MIND OVER Matter and following intuition.
Brilliant Person and her Talk.
I have been teaching and educating my patients about the Mind-body connection...we are not just a body..we are a mind and a body....and I have seen first hand fabulous results...there is much in healing that we cannot explain...but that doesnt mean that unconventional methods do not work...
one of the most enlightening lectures I have ever watched
Wonderful explanation of the placebo effect, pure genius.
There is wisdom in allowing the body to heal itself. Medical treatment has its place, but we have to live wthin our bodies and choose the activities that will maximize our chances for good health. Enlightened medical professionals would be a lot easier for patients to listen to. As you might tell from my picture, I am very curious about guys who "re-grew some hair when participating in Rogaine studies even though they were taking a placebo". I want me some of that!
Doctor in Latin means Teacher ... Dr. Rankin is a true teacher!

I wish you could be my doctorr!! You are the best.
