The MindBody Code to Access Your Innate Intelligence in the Healing Process
When we trigger our healing from the outside (external intervention) or from the inside (internal intervention) our intellect has a tendency to place expectations of what we want to happen rather than observing the process of what is taking place. What is the difference? Expectations of imagined healing sets parameters of what should happen. Conversely, observation of healing process, removes the imposition of how change should occur. Expectations of change come from your intellect, whereas observation of process goes to your innate intelligence.
Practical Application:
Physical challenge -External intervention (medication, psychotherapy, surgery) -
Internal intervention (relaxation, contemplation, prayer) -
Go into a contemplative or meditative state, and rather than imagining the progress you expect, shift to observing what your mindbody is doing in the healing process. As you practice this method of scanning your mindbody, you will be able to discern where to direct your awareness. This process will get your intellect to stop interfering with your innate tendency to heal.
