What if your thoughts could literally change your body?
In this episode of The Health Review, Emily Rose Adams sits down with Dr David Hamilton — scientist, author of How Your Mind Can Heal Your Body and The Joy of Actually Giving a Fck* — to explore the fascinating science linking kindness, belief and biology.
A former pharmaceutical scientist, Dr Hamilton left the lab to study why some people healed simply because they believed they would. His research into the placebo effect, visualisation, and the psychology of kindness reveals just how closely our minds and bodies are intertwined.
In this conversation, we cover:
How kindness and compassion change your biochemistry
Why the brain doesn’t always know what’s real versus imagined
How visualisation can speed recovery, reduce pain and boost immunity
The surprising ripple effects of everyday acts of kindness
Why self-kindness might be the most powerful health habit of all
Whether you’re curious about the mind-body connection or simply want to feel more balanced and present, this episode will leave you inspired to harness the power of your own mind.
