Connie presented to me in 1998 with a hopeless medical diagnosis of several brain and lung tumors, metastatic melanoma’s. She had by all accounts only a six to eight week prognosis. I managed to remove one of the brain tumors but relied on radiotherapy and chemotherapy in a desperate attempt to reduce the other tumors. We knew however that the success of these modalities of treatment was very low and that the probability of survival would not be more than three to six months.

Connie however became very receptive to my earlier immune-enhancing cognitive application with the result that we achieved almost a miraculous remission, way past the effectiveness of the conventional expectations. Connie in fact became free of all visible tumors at nine months.

Unfortunately she succumbed two and a half years later, having not been able to resolve deep-seated emotional conflict that gave rise to a terminal hopeless-helpless mind state. Dramatically, on throwing in the towel, Connie broke out in visible, multiple tumors all over her body – a final endorsement of the mind-immune connection.

Here then is the link to the video clip which appeared on national TV in 1998. It is a tribute to the memory of Connie who contributed so much value to our understanding of the mind-immune connection, psychoneuro-immunology (PNI). This eventually lead to the development of my NeuroSurge application.

Thanks Ian Weinberg, really enjoyed the recommended posts, they are keepers. Although it may appear with an agenda, it does not. I have always felt that a mentor or some other higher "master" would be needed for me to change. Certainly i can change small degrees, but i require that leadership of greater understanding from someone or something else to guide me. Your posts certainly illuminate areas of growth and understanding. Gerald Hecht #18 is compelling in the seeking of a master within our growth.

Hi again Harvey Lloyd I've investigated and written extensively on the influences which come to bear upon us - from the maternal in utero environment, through the formative years and beyond. And yes, there are very powerful determining forces at play. The unfolding life narrative will determine many aspects of our later choices in life, behavior and beliefs and importantly, will determine our potential for change. The influences of our resultant 'consciousness' are also formidable - influencing our physical environments as well as our states of wellness or illness. I would refer you to 3 of my previous articles which collectively may provide you with a more comprehensive answer.

The mind is a powerful organ, if we can call it by such a simple name. Your post certainly raises the connections between well being and our thoughts/perceptions. I would ask though, does not the mind require a master to grow? In your discussion here you provided this mastery of understanding to assist the patient. Our thoughts become cyclical without a master to lead us out of the jungle we create. Your thoughts? Great post and appreciate your writing.

Ian Weinberg How long ago was this video done? Very interesting to say the least. Can people practice this even if they don't have a diagnosis... what I mean is, will this practice possibly help to prevent? I'm a true believer in the mind/body connection. Kudos to you!

I wish I could say something smart but let's agree to leave at that, thank you for all that you do :-)

Ian Weinberg This is ground breaking Ian. Actual evidence and proof of the mind-body connection - as pioneered by you years ago. Great to see our resident Neuro- surgeon on SA's longest running Carte Blanche television show.

Thanks Sara Jacobovici for those very valid comments. Yes, the issue of 'blame' is very important and has to be dealt with very tactfully.

WOW! First let me say how great it is to see the theories translating into reality; real life experiences. You, Ian Weinberg, have integrated not only how our own system's ability can actively participate in the process of health, but you, as a professional, are a great example of how you have integrated knowledge, skill, and dedication. Another piece of integration is the merging of the ancient wisdom of mind/body work and technology that can provide a modern language for that wisdom.The video "speaks volumes" and is a story that needs to be told. I have (only) one caution to raise. The potential issue of blame. Work needs to be done in order for the individual to differentiate between what he or she could do in partnership with the health professionals in order to be aware of what is taking place, why, and how to influence changes, and factors that are out of the individual's control. Thank you for creating a tool that has such an important impact on our quality of life.
