He's already been a teacher, a lawyer and a judge. Now he is starting on a PhD. Wonder if he's ever heard of us?

I disagree. Having an active interest, better yet a few, can make you forget how you feel. In fact, forgetting that you were sick is the first step to being healed. (remember how it always happens? you suddenly remember: my headache is gone, I all forgot about it).
In any rate, it's those 3 lbs between the ears that do the real living. The body is only the instrument for the brain. Keep it active and the body will oblige. Be bored to death and the body will oblige too by taking you out of your misery quicker. Just my take on it.

speak for yourselfthe power that the mind has over the body is highly overrated.
You're mistaken. There is a sort of a body map in the brain, which gets "checked" when a corresponding part is in pain (real physical pain caused by injury). Just before the healing occurs, it first occurs in the brain. Whatever changes chronic pain made in that body awareness map, gets undone first . At that time the person forgets about being sick. The bodily awareness map in the brain gets restored first and it corresponds to a feeling of a healthy (-er) body. When this happens, the memory of pain and illness is gone (for however long).You forget about the headache because it goes away, not the other way around. People can't just forget diseases away, unless they're psychological to begin with, which the vast majority of diseases aren't.
