MU Health Psychologist Brick Johnstone, who directs the Center on Religion & the Profession's Spirituality and Health project, was featured on the CBS Morning News Early Show today. He discussed his research about the impact of prayer on health and healing.
Johnstone works with an interdisciplinary team at MU that seeks to better understand the effects of religion on healing and health. Here, CBS paired Brick's interview with a profile of a young man seriously injured on a motorcycle accident and whose family attributes prayer to his survival.
The media have been slow to report on research about spirituality and health—often focusing on the prayer component. Has this area of reporting grown to match the amount of work done in the field? It's hard to know, but I doubt it. What do you think?
Thank you very much for the information I really appreciate it!!
