Mind/Body Medicine is a commonly used category of Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM). Techniques include meditation, mindfulness, hypnosis, autogenic training, biofeedback, and cognitive restructuring. Mind/Body techniques use the mind, thoughts, and emotions to influence physical health. The mind and body are profoundly interconnected and are perhaps indistinguishable. Whereas the mind can make the body sick and create dis-ease, it can also trigger the body’s innate healing capabilities. Research supports the use of Mind/Body techniques to improve numerous conditions including immune function, stress, anxiety, depression, insomnia, migraines, headaches, digestive issues, chronic pain, heart disease, high blood pressure, and cancer. Anyone and everyone can benefit from Mind/Body techniques.

This 6 class Mind/Body Medicine series is presented by Dr. Christina Wilke-Burbach. She has a PhD in Health Psychology, a Masters Degree in Clinical Psychology, and is a Mind/Body researcher. Christina has published academic research in the area of Mind/Body Medicine and has also supervised psychology graduate students at Cardinal Stritch University conducting research in the field. Learn Mind/Body theory and discover the interdisciplinary field of Psychoneuroimmunology.
