Healing is both a scientific and a spiritual journey, states Kelly Noonan Gores. She's the writer, director, and producer of "Heal," a documentary feature about the mind-body connection and the body's innate ability to heal. In this wide-ranging discussion, we touch on a lot of the topics covered in previous episodes of Cancer Connection, including cases of exceptional healing (see episode 2 with Dr. Jeffrey Rediger) and the rewards that come from acknowledging our mortality (see episode 3 with Dr. BJ Miller). We also talk about the interconnectedness of science and spirituality; how our thoughts, beliefs, and emotions have a huge impact on our overall health and our ability to recover from illness and injury.
You can learn more about "Heal" at the film's website, or check out Kelly Noonan Gores' book of the same title.
