I’ve heard and read studies about it treating a multitude of mental things and lessen physical pain but like how? Is it real? I’m lost.

It’s hypnosis. Our brains affect our physical health, symptoms, and how we react to those symptoms.

Sometimes our brains will physically make us sick through stress or other mechanisms, so that is pretty easy, relatively, to clear up. We can also deal with symptoms better with a positive outlook, so even though nothing has changed in our body, how we deal with and react to symptoms can be improved.

It’s magic or a spell, not in the literal sense, though.
