    Herbert Benson, M.D., was an American cardiologist and a pioneer in mind-body medicine.

Benson's research served as a bridge between medicine and spirituality, East and West, mind and body, and belief and science, inspiring a new generation of physicians.

    The Relaxation Response
    • The medical profession recently redefined high blood pressure as greater than 130/80; this means that more than 30 million additional Americans are now considered to have high blood pressure that should be lowered, preferably without use of drugs.Herbert Benson, M.D., first wrote about a simple, effective mind/body approach to lowering blood pressure in The Relaxation Response. When Dr. Benson introduced this approach to relieving stress over forty years ago, his book became an instant national bestseller. Since that time, millions of people have learned the secret—without high-priced lectures or prescription medicines. The Relaxation Response has become the classic reference recommended by most health care professionals and authorities to treat the harmful effects of stress and high blood pressure.Discovered by Dr. Benson and his colleagues in the laboratories of Harvard Medical School and its teaching hospitals, this revitalizing, therapeutic tack is now routinely recommended to treat patients suffering from stress, including heart conditions, high blood pressure, chronic pain, insomnia, and many other physical and psychological ailments. It requires only minutes to learn, and just ten minutes of practice a day.

      Your Maximum Mind
    • In seinem neuen, in den USA vieldiskutierten Buch gelingt es dem renommierten Harvard-Arzt Dr. Herbert Benson, Biologie und Religion oder - mit anderen Worten - objektive Wissenschaft und die Kraft des Glaubens zu verbinden. Anhand eindrucksvoller Fallbeispiele, medizinischer Studien und jüngster Ergebnisse der Hirnforschung belegt Benson die Heilkraft des sogenannten Placebo-Effekts, des Glaubens an die Gesundung, und zeigt, wie wichtig der Glaube an Gott in der Neuen Medizin sein kann.§Ein wahrhaft bestärkendes, dem Leben zugewandtes Buch, das für Wissenschaftler und Skeptiker, Gläubige und Ungläubige gleichermaßen eine Fülle von sinnvollen Anregungen bietet.

      Heilung durch Glauben
    • V této převratné nové knize, autor - lékař zkoumá průnik mezi objektivní vědou a fascinující silou lidského ducha. Ukazuje, že pozitivní víra, zejména víra ve vyšší moc, zásadním způsobem přispívá k našemu zdraví. Autor názorně poukazuje na to, jak může každý, včetně ošetřujícího lékaře nebo léčitele, čerpat z rezervoáru "pamatované pohody" k působení na 90 procent zdravotních potíží a k jejich vyléčení.
