MIND BODY MEDICINE and The Science of Salutogenesis

In an era dominated by disease-focused healthcare, Mind-Body Medicine offers a transformative alternative: a science-based vision of health creation rather than illness management.Grounded in Aaron Antonovsky's salutogenic framework, this authoritative volume brings together neuroscience, psychoneuroimmunology, and embodied practice with enduring healing traditions. It examines how mindfulness, meditative movement, breathwork, biofeedback, and culturally rooted approaches such as anthroposophic and Ayurvedic medicine can reduce allostatic burden, strengthen resilience, and support human flourishing.Written for clinicians, researchers, educators, and health-oriented professionals, this book bridges rigorous science and practical application. It explores the biological and molecular foundations of mind-body interaction, surveys the clinical evidence across major conditions, and offers actionable protocols for implementation in primary care, workplaces, and communities.With its emphasis on whole-person healing, cultural sensitivity, and personalization, this book points toward a new paradigm of care - one in which health is actively cultivated through coherence, connection, and conscious living.Nandan Singh Bisht is a clinician, scholar, and author with a sustained interest in mind-body medicine, salutogenesis, and whole-person approaches to health and healing. His work brings together clinical insight, scientific inquiry, and a commitment to compassionate care.
