The Healing Power of the Mind, Body Connection

Matthew Sanford



Thursday, September 18, 2008

At age 13, Matthew Sanford’s world turned upside-down when a devastating car accident killed his father and sister and left him paralyzed from the chest down. Now 42 and still paralyzed, Sanford is a nationally recognized yoga teacher, critically acclaimed author and a leading voice in the integrative health movement who has inspired and enhanced the lives of thousands. His pioneering work with yoga, paralysis and disability is transforming the approach to rehabilitation. His inspirational message, however, applies to all able and disabled. Sanford’s story proves that having a deeper connection between mind and body enhances quality of life. It is possible to transform trauma and loss into hope and potential, regardless of illness, age or stress.

Matthew weaves his amazing story of healing and recovery, of paralysis and yoga, to deliver a simple but powerful message: Your body is the best home your mind will ever have. He transforms this insight into practical truths. Connecting mind and body is not just a key to good health, it is essential to your thinking process, your creativity, your relationship with others, your sense of purpose, and your ability to manage stress.
