This excellent, brief article discusses how we are "wired for God". Dr. Bill Salt cites Dr. Herbert Benson's groundbreaking work on how the integration of faith, hope, and belief in a divine presence relates to healing.

- In Timeless Healing, Herbert Benson, M.D., says that we are all "wired for God."
"Whether you are Christian, Jewish, Muslim, Hindu, Buddhist or something else, your belief in a higher power heals".
"Based on a wealth of scientific research, experiential reports and preliminary investigational literature, we conclude that spirituality must be reintegrated into the mind-body connection. The healing power of spirituality is an integral and inseparable part of all other forms of healing".
I intend to add Timeless Healing, as well as his book Timeless Healing - The Power and Biiology of Belief to my library they are valuable resources.
