The full quote/excerpt

Niels Bohr used to hang a horseshoe above the door to his office, saying “I’m not superstitious, but I hear this works whether you believe in it or not.” Part of me is tempted to recommend Unlearn Your Pain [Schubiner’s mind-over-pain psychotherapy] to my patients on the same principle.
