Why Woo Woo Works

David Hamilton, PhD, bestselling author and expert on the mind-body connection, offers evidence for why some of the most popular alternative healing methods shouldn't be discounted scientifically.

Why should we meditate? How can crystals heal the mind and body? Why is visualization so powerful - and so effective?

Alternative therapies, healing modalities, and spiritual practices are often referred to as 'woo-woo', but many of these approaches are actually supported by compelling scientific evidence.

In this dynamic and thought-provoking book, Why Woo Woo Works, David R. Hamilton PhD dives deeper into the true nature of consciousness and presents the cutting-edge research behind energy healing, crystals, meditation, and more.

You'll discover:

  • The science behind some of today's most popular alternative practices
  • How your thoughts, emotions, and beliefs have healing power
  • The benefits of nature and a holistic approach to healing
  • A fascinating link between consciousness and human connection
  • The relationship between suppressed emotions and disease

The ideas behind some of these holistic therapies have been around for millennia, but now we have scientific evidence demonstrating how they can contribute to physical, emotional, and energetic healing too.

It's time to embrace the truth: that woo-woo really does work.
