On this episode of Explore Your Spirit with Kala, Kala speaks with Dr. Dean Shrock about his book, Why Love Heals. In Why Love Heals, Dean reveals considerable evidence and scientific proof that love heals. Dr. Shrock served as Director of Mind-Body Medicine for a physician management group of 40 cancer centers. Here he found that his cancer patients lived much longer than those receiving only conventional medical care. His research concluded that the difference was that they felt loved and cared for. That is when he realized healthcare must address the whole person: body, mind, and spirit. Connecting with someone emotionally and spiritually is the essence of life and health. Now after more than 30 years of study and experience, Dean unveils how to enhance your health and the health of those you love. Discover the simple secret from one of the foremost leaders in Mind-Body-Spirit Medicine. Why Love Heals is a “must read” for anyone who wants to live a longer, healthier, joy-filled life. In 1986 Dr. Shrock completed a post-doctoral internship where he developed a research proposal for the Cleveland Clinic to test the effectiveness of guided imagery with cancer patients. In 1988 Dr. Shrock was hired by a physician management group to provide psychological services for their cancer centers. Here he developed a wellness program whose primary purpose was to instill a greater “will to live”. While bringing more joy and meaning into life surely could affect a patient’s quality of life, Dr. Shrock’s research published in 1999 found that it extended their length of life. He concluded they lived longer because they felt listened to, cared for, and supported. His experience and expertise led to his being invited to co-author the chapter on Mind-Body Medicine in what is regarded as “the definitive source in the field” for healthcare providers, the textbook, Integrative Oncology.
