Xerces Posted April 24, 2011 Share Posted April 24, 2011 So, this book I read recently said belief is "powerful". I have heard of the placebo effect but I am wondering is there anything else from science I can look into about the mind body connection? I don't know where to start, lol.

Thurisaz Posted April 24, 2011 Share Posted April 24, 2011 I'm not sure that I get you right but if you're searching for "related phenomena" then I'd say that mass hysteria is a serious contender. Just watch one of the (what feels like) 7.5 billion documentaries about the 3rd reich for starters... specifically about the public nazi party ceremonies in Nuremberg back then... perfect example for brainwashing by crowd.

Xerces, I just posted this somewhere else, but it has to do a lot with the power of belief and brainwashing. I found it to be a fairly good article: http://educate-yours...ng06jun05.shtml Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
