Faith & the Mind-Body Connection
Recent research has shown the dynamic interactions of how our mind influences our physical health and likewise how our state of physical health influences our emotional or mental well-being. Furthermore, research has shown how acute and chronic stress affects both our minds and bodies and the role of faith in dealing with stress. This workshop will describe the mind-body connection and explore how faith and religious coping behaviors can mitigate against the destructive aspects of stress in our lives.
