Neuroplasticity and Hope
Life changes. Accept it. It is what it is. It is this moment that matters. As hard as it may be at times, tell yourself this moment matters, I was rhetorically imparting to a colleague over lunch one day. We are both healthcare professionals. She is a physician and I am a psychologist. We were discussing the importance of sitting with our patients in their moment of suffering rather than just treating a disease. We both understand the alchemy of presence. You sit and you listen. You wait for them to find their wholeness within themselves and assure them that even in their brokenness there is the sacred.
With philosophical calm, we discussed the hopelessness of the chronically ill, and how lack of hope is a type of violence because it creates a paralysis of will on the individual’s mind, since any healing process is initiated as a product of Consciousness. Consciousness is all there is we agreed. It is the ground of your being. There is nothing but Consciousness. Everything is initiated from Consciousness. Quantum medicine as informed by quantum physics instructs us how energy and communication between the interacting systems can happen instantly without a visible linear pathway. A large quantum sequential jump, or discontinuity, occurs with non-local signals among these dimensions.
My colleague then remarked passionately, “I do not believe that as physicians we should give a prognosis to our patients because once they have it, they want to do what the doctor told them will happen.” Without realizing, my colleague was discussing quantum entanglement. When a doctor and a patient fail to act as a unit, together they become dysfunctional. But when one is in touch with one’s own inner sovereignty and pair this authenticity with a spoken hopefulness, this will jumpstart the patient out of limitations and spiritual emptiness. The doctor’s awareness then becomes the eyes through which the patient begins to see the physical world. Observations of potential can be transformative because empowering others is the biggest gift we have to give. This unified Consciousness becomes like a pendulum downplaying one level and highlighting another.
