Votre cerveau sait fabriquer SES PROPRES MEDICAMENTS

A man swallows 29 antidepressant pills. His body collapses. His blood pressure plummets. The emergency room barely manages to stabilize him. Then they discover that the 29 pills were placebos. Sugar. Within fifteen minutes, he's feeling better. In this video, I show you that the placebo effect isn't "nothing": it's a real and measurable neurobiological mechanism. And most importantly, I teach you how to use it with a guided experiment! 🔗 Links: 🎧 Free hypnosis session: https://app.psychonaute.fr/checkout/n... 🔗 Want to learn hypnosis?
