Or how about another test ?
If you have the
cojones for it, create and maintain a postive, optimistic attitude. Note that absolutely nothing has changed in the external, "objective" world, only your attitude.
And the stats show that not only will you have a good chance that your health will improve, but also more good things will happen to you in that outside, "external" world.
Ooooer, or we can talk about the proven succcess of the placebo effect under certain conditions.
Reality is a complex thing, and not amenable to simple slogans.
