neural
science – interactions with the environment, especially
relationships with other people, directly shape the development of the
brain’s structure and function.
differentiation - “the capacity of an
individual to feel worthwhile from
internal ‘self-validation’, rather than needing external validation from
someone or something outside of self”
flow-1 (optimal experience) - “the
moments of exceptional experience when one is in a sense of effortless
action or connection, being ‘in the zone,’ ecstasy or being at one with an
activity or another person”
flow-2 - only in the NOW… a state of
consciousness (awareness) in which the ‘observing mind’ no longer watches.
flow-3 - Orthomolecular Psychiatry -
the psychology of Optimal Experience: technical term for Mihaley
Csikszentmihalyi’s research at the University of Chicago.
flow-4 goal - to increase one’s
capacity to be fully present in each moment.
psychoneuro-immunology – a
groundbreaking field linking immunity and the mind, correlates
life-affirming attitudes and behaviors with wellness.
nitric oxide - Activating the trigger
appears to cause your body to release puffs of nitric oxide…a response
that counters stress hormones that can impede a
Breakout.
Note: most startling scientific
concept to explain the Breakout mechanism is the calming response or
‘release”….that typically precedes a Breakout may cause the body to
release increasing amounts of nitric oxide throughout the body.
synchronicity
- “a meaningful coincidence of two or more events, where something other
than the probability of chance is involved.”
compassion & open- heartedness –
facilitate the creation of an immuno-supportive system in your body.
Positive thoughts, a loving perspective on your illness and yourself, give
us potent ammunition against disease. Building heart builds immunity.
intuition - a way of knowing beyond
the five senses
shared meaning - when the message sent
and the message received are the same, creating a sense of flowing
connectedness
Heisenberg’s Uncertainty Principle –
asserts that, regardless of the precision of our tools or the elegance of
our techniques, we face a limit to what we can know.
intention - seeing “intent” as “the
primary force” in the Universe
gratitude - the fastest form of
healing
Bell’s Theorem - the ‘oneness’ of the
sub-atomic world; the idea of implicit order…that everything in the
Universe is enfolded in everything else. 1964 J. S. Bell….A Swiss
Psychiatrist & former student of David Bohm (Professor of Theoretical
Physics at London’s Birkbeck College). Physicist Henry Stapp…University
of Calif. at Berkley said: “Bell’s Theorm is “the most profound discovery
in the history of science.” Proves: the world is fundamentally
inseparable.
cultural biology - suggests that who
you are is not the product of an
un-modifiable human nature, but an ever-evolving product of a dynamic
interplay between your history and biology. (Robert Putman & Robin Dunbar)
positive thoughts….boost endorphins,
(endogenous morphine), serotonin, & dopamine; emotionally soothing, reduce
pain and stress.
negative thoughts… Cortisol ,
adrenaline & nor-adrenalin, causing anxiety, anger, fear, etc., which
leads to chronic inflammation & disease.
natural morphine, endorphin-releasing, oxitocin…creates
clarity &
authentic connection (brain cells reorganize)
authenticity - a congruency between
internal data (feelings, thoughts, intentions,
etc.) and outward expression of that data (feelings, thoughts, intentions,
actions
reported or acted upon).
‘moments’ of authentic connections -
key, primary context for the state of ‘flow’ or ‘optimal experience’
between humans in any life context.
blocks to flow - occur when one is in
a state of stress, focused in the past or future (not in the present)
