Energy Medicine in Therapeutics


Description

Energy Medicine in Therapeutics and Human Performance explores the human body's potential by drawing on an extraordinary range of sources from physiology and biophysics, to examples from the realms of spontaneous healing, cutting-edge athletic and artistic performance, the martial arts, and various contemplative and spiritual practices. This course presents clues that make no sense by themselves, but reveal a logical pattern when taken together. With new perspectives and theoretical models, this course offers ways to apply these concepts directly, practically and clinically. Applications include treating traumas of all kinds as well as movement disorders, including paralysis. The concepts open up new maps of the unconscious, intuition, and insight—subjects previously considered too difficult or imprecise for scientific exploration.

Objectives

Are there limits to the human body’s potential for healing and physical performance? The body employs regulatory circuitry to maintain a high level of functioning for healing or obtaining optimal performance. Diseases and injuries compromise the regulatory circuitry. This course studies a high-speed communication system in the human body that senses and responds to the energetic environment. This communication system is the substrate for systemic cooperation. Learning how to achieve more as a therapist, performer or team involves increasing the cooperative interactions within the network that reaches all parts of the body and affects all systems.
