           Neuropeptides and Kabbalah: Where is the Mind and How Do We Heal 
           
           -Daniel Kinderlehrer-

           In the past decade, science has elucidated more about the brain 
           and the mind than during the entire previous history of psychology 
           and neuroscience. However, as details of our molecular biology 
           emerge, it becomes clear that the only way to understand the human 
           mind is within a larger framework than molecules and electric potentials. 
           We need to discard Western concepts of mind-body communication 
           and, therefore, duality, and expand our awareness to body-mind 
           unity. The mind is not a separate entity in dialogue with our bodies. 
           The mind is a complex informational system throughout our bodies, 
           which enables our cells to talk with each other and the outside 
           world. 
           
           This understanding of the mind is held within the cosmology of 
           the universe as described in the Kabbalah. The Kabbalah describes 
           the synthesis of Spirit-Beliefs-Energy-Emotions-and-Physicality, 
           or the process of consciousness becoming matter. The Kabbalah supplies 
           a framework for understanding mind-body oneness and the role of 
           molecular communication signals such as neuropeptides in the process 
           of creation.
           
           In the second half of this program, Dan leads an experiential and 
           interactive healing session based on Kabbalistic principles and 
           the unity of God, mind and body.
