Over the past year we have spoken many times about the link between our body and mind; about emotional flow and its impact on our physiology. I wanted to share some notes from David Simon’s book – the Wisdom of Healing.
” The idea that something as subtle as our attention can influence something as concrete as our physical body may at first be difficult to accept. Yet, our whole concept of what is “real” is changing today. All the current technologies have evolved from one paradoxical idea: that the essential nature of the physical world is that it not ultimately physical: that the atom, for eg, which is the basic unit of matter, can also be seen as a network of information and energy.
A flower, for eg, is made up of information and energy. The energy is the raw electromagnetic, gravitational, and atomic forces that allow the flower to be perceived by our senses: the color, shape, texture, and fragrance are the specific packages of information.
Ayurveda teaches that intelligence is information and energy that is self-referral. That means the ability to learn through experience to reinterpret and influence one’s choices. When, through our intelligence, we make different choices, we change the energy and information that enters our mind and body and by so doing, we TRANSFORM who we are.
