One of the major challenges with psychosomatic disease is understanding the mind and body connection, which has been an impossible task since the 17th-Century when the French philosopher and mathematician René Descartes established the scientific premises of modern medicine based on Cartesian dualism, which considers the mind as being wholly separate from the body.
In the Western world, this mind-body split also provided a foundation for modern medicine to flourish with “advances in surgery, trauma care, pharmaceuticals, and other areas of allopathic medicine.”
On the other hand, for centuries ancient systems of medicine in the Eastern world knew much more about the mind-body connection. Taoist medicine and traditional acupuncture not only had a profound knowledge of the intimate connection between the mind and body, but these traditions also understood the movement of subtle energies to restore balance.
Medical schools still teach an upward model of science, where the mind is a byproduct of the brain, here the dichotomy still persists even though common sense obviously demonstrates the clear interrelation of both. At Quantum University, we have adopted what we call a Downward Causational Model of Science (DCMS). (3) In this perspective, the brain and mind are both possibilities of Consciousness, solving centuries of Cartesian dualism. This perspective is only a first step in arriving at a fundamental understanding of how we can consider a wholistic approach to resolving conflicts, health problems, or disease. Obviously, Consciousness is a part of the answer.
The second step in learning how to heal is to find a technique or modality that balances the heart and brain.
