From the Archives

At the 1983 International Congress, Lawrence R. Gindhart, EdD, presented a distinctive clinical concept: the serial metaphor—a method of delivering therapeutic stories over multiple sessions to influence unconscious processes and facilitate change.

He explored this process in several clinical case reports that were published in ‘Journal of Strategic and Systemic Therapies’ and ‘American Journal of Clinical Hypnosis’.

Gindhart's emphasis on structure, timing, and thematic development of metaphor aligns with many principles emphasized in Ericksonian therapy training today.

Have you ever heard of Salutogenesis?

Salutogenesis stands at that rare crossroads where biology, psychology, and meaning-making shake hands. It says health isn’t just the absence of illness but the presence of coherence — a rhythm that keeps re-emerging even after dissonance.
The concept was developed by Aaron Antonovsky, a medical sociologist who, in the 1970s, turned the medical question on its head. Instead of asking “What causes disease?” (pathogenesis), he asked “What creates health?” (salutogenesis). His work became the foundation for modern resilience research, mind-body medicine, and the study of spontaneous healing.
Antonovsky’s quiet genius was that he refused to separate resilience from mystery. He treated hope not as a feeling, but as data — something observable in people who recover when the odds say they shouldn’t. That’s why the word feels alive: it honors both the measurable and the ineffable.

If medicine is the study of what breaks, salutogenesis is the study of what endures — the patient who heals, the melody that keeps playing, the spark that refuses extinction.

What has been in my mind a lot in the last few weeks is why do healers across the world — in China, India, the Amazon — all describe the body as energy, light, resonance?

 it can only be because healing isn’t stored in one lineage. Like a hologram, it’s everywhere at once. Each tradition touches the same field from a different angle — the collective resonance of humanity.

The brain is not a machine sealed in the skull.
It breathes with the body, listens to the earth, leans into the stars.
Waves of energy move through it, weaving memory into being.
Consciousness is not contained — it is connected.

A study in NeuroQuantology suggests that the brain may not function as an isolated information processor, but as part of a larger holographic field. In this view, the nervous system is embedded in a dynamic toroidal structure — a doughnut-shaped flow of energy — that resonates with the body and the wider cosmos.

The researchers describe how this field could interact with forces such as gravity, the Earth’s magnetic field, and even the zero-point field. These interactions might transmit wave patterns into brain tissue, supporting the rapid integration of conscious and subconscious processes.

Consciousness, then, may emerge not only from neurons firing inside the skull, but from the nested coupling of energy fields across multiple scales. This holographic “workspace” could continuously update a global memory space, creating an inner model of the self while remaining open to transpersonal states of awareness.

The authors connect their proposal to broader theories in physics — from Bohm’s implicate order to space-time models — suggesting that consciousness may be woven into the fabric of the universe itself. In this framework, the mind is not reduced to the brain but participates in a larger field of life and meaning, pointing to a deep connection between humanity and the cosmos.
