Question | Answer |
---|---|
ALS | amyotrophic lateral sclerosis |
Newman identified disease as a- | manifestation of pattern |
encompasses conditions known as disease | Health |
- can be considered a manifestation of the underlying pattern of the person | Disease |
The pattern of the person that manifests itself as disease is | primary and exists prior to structural or functional changes. |
Health | - is the expansion of consciousness |
as an essential property of matter and change that occurs between states of rest. | Movement |
Human characteristics | open energy systems |
in continual interconnectedness with a universe of open systems | |
Health | continuously active in evolving their own pattern of the whole |
Time and timing | relate the rhythm of living phenomena |
Time | is also seen as a symbol of status |
Space | is discussed in conjunction with time and movement and not defined separately. |
Consciousness is | the information of the system; the capacity of the system to interact with the environment. |
As human beings develop | consciousness grows, or expands. |
Persons do not possess consciousness | they are consciousness |
Pattern | depicts the whole and is characterized by movement, diversity, and rhythm. |
Transformation | is change that occurs all |
Pattern recognition | occurs within the observer |
We need to remind ourselves that the piece of reality that is known to us is only a portion of the | total reality. |
The more we comprehend the whole | the more knowledge of the parts becomes meaningful. |
Pattern recognition helps find meaning and understanding and in doing so | speeds up the evolution of consciousness |
The old view that health is the absence of disease has been associated with a tendency to view those without health as | inferior |
Health and disease are not separate entities but | are each reflections of the larger whole |
Disease and nondisease provide | different views of health |
Implicate order is that | unseen, multidimensional pattern that is the ground, or basis, for all things. |
We grow or evolve through experiencing disequilibrium and learning how to attain a new sense of | balance |
It is important to remember that although an individual may exhibit the emergent pattern labeled disease, that individual’s pattern relates to and reflects the patterns of others | family, friends, community |
Searching for patterns instead of treating | symptoms |
Perceiving pain and disease as information instead of seeing them as | totally negative |
Viewing the body as a dynamic field of energy that is continuous with a larger field instead of | as a machine in various states of repair or disrepair. |
Seeing disease as a | process rather and an entity |
First stage | potential freedom |
Second stage | binding |
Third stage | centering |
Fourth stage | choice |
Fifth stage | de-centering |
Sixth stage | unbinding |
Seventh stage | complete freedom |
