A Day of Deep Healing and Transformation with Dr. Joan Borysenko

Come join us for a day filled with insights, healing, and transformation with the renowned Dr. Joan Borysenko. This in-person event will be held at the West Sacramento Community Center | Black Box.

In a world that often overlooks the quiet power of inner healing, there comes a rare opportunity to sit in the presence of someone who has spent a lifetime understanding the depths of the human experience. Joan Borysenko, a pioneer at the intersection of science, psychology, and spiritual healing, invites you to a full day of profound exploration.

Over the course of her 50-year journey, Joan has gathered wisdom that transcends conventional boundaries. In this intimate workshop, she will not only share transformative practices and insights but also provide practical guidance and tools to help navigate the complexities of life. Joan will help you find peace where it can be found and embrace grace to soften the edges of adversity. This is not grandiose, but rather real, tangible help that can truly catalyze change.

This isn’t merely an event; it is a call to those who seek to understand the intricate connections between mind, body, and spirit. With limited seating, this gathering offers a rare chance to engage directly with Joan in a space designed for meaningful interaction.

Lunch is included, ensuring that your day is one of both physical and emotional sustenance.

Further details will be shared soon. We encourage you to secure your place early, as we expect this event to reach capacity quickly.

Bio: Dr. Joan Borysenko

This distinguished pioneer in integrative medicine is a world-renowned expert in the mind/body connection. Her work has been foundational in an international health-care revolution that recognizes the role of meaning, and the spiritual dimensions of life, as an integral part of health and healing. Eloquent and inspiring in settings that range from hospitals to hospices, from theaters to conference venues, and from boardrooms to houses of worship, she is a credible bridge between faith and reason. Her brilliance, humor, and authenticity—in combination with the latest research—make her a compelling and inspiring speaker and writer.

After graduating magna cum laude from Bryn Mawr College in 1967, Dr. Borysenko earned her doctorate in Medical Sciences from the Harvard Medical School, where she completed post-doctoral training in cancer cell biology. Her first faculty position was at the Tufts University College of Medicine in Boston. But after the death of her father from cancer, she became more interested in the person with the illness than in the disease itself, and returned to Harvard Medical School to complete a second postdoctoral fellowship, this time in the new field of behavioral medicine. Under the tutelage of Herbert Benson, M.D., who first identified the relaxation response and brought meditation into medicine, she was awarded a Medical Foundation Fellowship and completed her third post-doctoral fellowship in psychoneuroimmunology.

In the early 1980’s Dr. Borysenko co-founded a Mind/Body clinic with Dr. Benson and Dr. Ilan Kutz, became licensed as a psychologist, and was appointed instructor in medicine at the Harvard Medical School. Her years of clinical experience and research culminated in the 1987 publication of the New York Times best seller, Minding the Body, Mending the Mind, which sold over 400,000 copies. The 20th anniversary edition, newly revised, was published in 2007. Author or co-author of 16 other books and numerous audio and video programs, including the Public Television special Inner Peace for Busy People, she is the Founding Partner of Mind/Body Health Sciences, LLC located in Santa Fe, New Mexico.

Dr. Borysenko’s warmth and credibility- plus her lively sense of humor- create a compelling presence. One of the most frequent comments from people at her programs is that her teaching is a transmission- a living experience- that transforms their life. One of the most popular and sought after speakers in the field of health, healing, and spirituality, Joan’s engaging and well researched presentations are perfect both for professionals and for the general public.
