The Mind/Body Connection
“The simple truth is, happy people generally don’t get sick. One’s attitude toward oneself is the single most important factor in healing or staying well.”
Bernie S. Siegel, M.D.

Health and Wellness provides a greater understanding and respect for the connection between mind and body — between our thoughts and our health. Managing stress, by changing toxic beliefs, can have a dramatic effect on our psychological and physical health. Participants gain an understanding about key beliefs that are associated with increasing the immune system’s capability to produce wellness. Put another way, PER-K® belief change processes teach participants how to develop an “immune-competent” personality. More wellness means greater productivity, less absenteeism and reduced utilization of the health care system. Lower demand on the health care system means lower health care costs for the company and its employees. Reduced absenteeism means more productivity and a greater contribution to the bottom line, for the company, the individual, and the planet. Explore the amazing mind/body connection, and enjoy the benefits of improved health, happiness and performance for yourself and your employees.
