November 03 Flusterclux Quarterlife: The Placebo Effect is EVERYWHERE
The Placebo Effect is one of the most powerful examples of what our brains can control. If your brain thinks something will have an impact, odds are it will. Whether that something is a cocktail of drugs or a simple sugar pill. But Placebo goes beyond the common examples.

Anxiety, depression, illness, even surgical operations can be treated with the Placebo Effect. Join Lynn and Brackett as they dive down the rabbit hole of suggestion and credibility and their power over our brains.
