Dear Colleague,
Today, in our global community where the news often seems more unsettling than
reassuring, there is even a greater need for health and mental health care
professionals to grow and learn together in their understanding of mind/body
medicine. Because our patients and clients deserve the healing therapies they
seek, the Psychology of Health, Immunity, and Disease Conference has developed
over the years as a much needed forum for the sharing of comprehensive
information, current research, and proven treatments.
You are the professionals who represent a wide and varied range of expertise in
mind/body medicine, and this conference, where cutting-edge theory and
innovative therapies are presented, discussed, and demonstrated for practitioner
understanding and subsequent application, is designed for you.
As you explore the following pages, note the broad spectrum of
practitioner-orientated offerings. These sessions are customized to provide
in-depth information, skills, and techniques to assist you in making significant
strides within your own practice. Because this December schedule blends theory,
research, and clinical application, let this Conference time be your "home" away
from the office.
Every aspect of the Conference is intended to make your time here more
beneficial, professionally and personally. You will have opportunities to
interact directly with presenters who are at the cutting-edge of new topics,
network with other professionals like yourself, and earn CE/CME accreditation.
Surrounding this gathering is the ocean-side setting "to feed" your soul. Relax
and enjoy conversation with like-minded colleagues in this natural setting and
return home, re-energized with new insights to face client
challenges.
We look forward to bringing to you the best practitioner-oriented,
mind/body/spirit conference in the country. As we approach the second decade of
conference presentations, I would like to offer my sincere thanks to the many
participants who have made past years so successful and to extend a warm welcome
to new friends who will be joining us this year.
By the close of the conference, I hope you will find as I have in the past, that
we become not only a collegial, but a bonded community of practitioners, whose
shared interests and rejuvenated expertise in mind/body medicine are not only
instrumental in shaping our own professions, but vital to the health and healing
of the larger, global community we serve.
The conference experience awaits. Join us at Hilton Head this December.
Sincerely,
Ruth Buczynski, PhD
