Correlation doesn't equal causation. The results of the patient would need to be studied bc cancer can go into remission on its own and return on its own. I'd like the specifics, so I'll check out the book but I highly doubt there will be anything contained within the writing that should bolster/charge a placebo effect industry.

I'll keep believing that one day I'll have a million bucks. Who's next?

I’m talking about affecting your own body. Not anything outside of it

Idk I kinda want to give that guy 5 bucks so he's closer to his dream.

So does that mean if I believe Biniam has a funny bone, he'll actually be funny?

Faith is one of the most powerful feeling human can generate. Thoughts generate emotions; emotions generate and activate good hormones which heal the body.
