Shamanic healing for veterans with ptsd: a case series
Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is a serious health concern. Current evidence-based treatments for PTSD are efficacious, however, they are not appropriate or tolerated by everyone who needs them. Alternative treatment approaches are needed. Shamanic healing is one such therapy that may potentially be beneficial but no systematic research has been conducted on it for PTSD. (Source: Explore)

Successful spontaneous conception and live birth in a woman with an extremely low level of anti-m Üllerian hormone who received korean herbal medicine (bogungsamul-tang): a case report
We report a case in which an infertile woman with a very low AMH level naturally conceived after 2 months of herbal treatment (Bogungsamul-tang), ultimately giving birth to a full-term baby. Although AMH l evels were not measured immediately before and after treatment, our study suggests that Korean herbal remedies are a viable option for infertile women with negligible AMH levels.

On the science of consciousness: epistemological reflections and clincial implications
Consciousness has been one of the most important and tantalizing issues ever since the origin of philosophy and medicine. The concept of consciousness and the so-called “hard problem” (i.e., the mind-brain relationship) are highly complex topics that have yet to be elucidated, involving the realms of both science and philosophy with profound epistemological implications. In the lively debate on the foundations of the science of consciousness there are several p otential biases of an essentially philosophical nature, such as those related to the paradigm and axioms adopted, and the ostensible logical contradiction betwe...

Searching for Global Consciousness: A Seventeen Year Exploration
The Global Consciousness Project (GCP) maintains a long-term experiment that investigates the possibility of a subtle connection between the collective mental activity of humans and the physical behavior of systems in the surrounding environment. The Project formulates this proposition as a broad hypothesis that relates the output of true random number generators (RNGs) to times of intense, collective mental attention during major world events. Over 17 years, the hypothesis has been tested on nearly 500 events, yielding a cumulative result that rejects the null hypothesis by 7 standard deviations, apparently lending strong...

As one of many people with a history of AD in the family, I have been relieved by research that shows that genetics is not destiny. Epigenetics and the fact that lifestyle choices such as how we eat, exercise, and manage stress can have a major impact in reducing our risk of developing this feared and dehumanizing condition.
