Let me just remind everyone that "mind" and "body" are constructs.

If unspecified "mindfulness" can have such fundamental physical effects, I'm having a hard time seeing how direct psychosomatic engagement is so far fetched. Truly, while the Wisconsin studies are lumping participants' psychosomatic experiences into a broad category of "mindfulness meditation", every participants experience of "mindfulness meditation" was a unique journey into the depths of their inner world, mentally, emotionally, physically and spiritually; these categories are different angles on one thing: the experience of the human animal.
