Psychosomatic healing

Abstract

The efficacy of homeopathy requires modern medicine to revise its mechanistic paradigm of the human body mind and its physiology. Scientists such as Sheldrake and Schrodinger have demonstrated that the reality of shape or organization (i.e. the organizing patterns of nature) supersede the apparent material reality of matter. This pattern is equivalent to relationship or context which ultimately confers meaning to existence. Morphic fields are postulated by Sheldrake to surround each natural system and can linger as a kind of memory even after the system has disintegrated. Whitman suggests that in the same manner disease represents a field as it were that must be reckoned with by the afflicted organize either by shielding against it succumbing to it or integrating it and in consequence achieving a new evolutionary form. The concepts above all stem from the phenomenon of the infinitesimal dose which reduces substance to experiential memory. Additionally the law of similar phenomenon in revealing the similarity of form between the patient and remedy reveal the implicate order (or meaning) underlying each. Thus existence is imbued with a sense of meaning. Similarity is demonstrated as a healing principle not only in homeopathy but also in successful psychotherapy.
