Did you know that most people have cells that come from their mothers and, if you are a woman, from your children? Are these foreign cells friendly to the body? Can they help heal Parkinson’s? Do they promote regeneration of damaged tissue? Or, do they obstruct the healing process?
Dr. Lee Nelson researches these issues with a specific focus on rheumatism and arthritis. She is Professor of Medicine at the University of Washington who was interviewed by Nancy Welch, author of Meditation Medicine: Illness, Body, Mind and Breath and myself.
Dr. Nelson also talks about the profound impact meditation has had on her research and on her life. This is a fascinating discussion on chronic illness and suffering you will not want to miss.
