Psychologist and medical scientist, Joan Borysenko, PhD explores transformation through her healing experience. She is the co-founder of the Mind/Body clinical programs at Boston’s Beth Israel/Deaconess Medical Center and taught at Harvard Medical School. This interview was conducted at IONS as part of the transformation project research in 2006.

St. John of the Cross and St. Teresa of Avila in the 15th Century
described the "dark night of the soul" and how it's a place of grace.
Joan explores that concept in this segment and identifies pitfalls. She
says the darkness of 'don't know' is frightening to most people, but it
stops the ego in its tracks and something new has to happen.
