Highlights
Dr. Philippe Douyon shares his experience as a kidney transplant patient and how it affected his life. To overcome the trauma, he focused on goals rather than his problems.
We talk about his perception of the medical system and how he deals with it.
Doctors are too specialized.
I asked how he maintains his equanimity while working in the system that he finds so flawed. He describes the path he’s been taking as he spreads the word about alternative approaches to medical care.
We talk about what it is inside of the brain that allows us to have mystical and other spiritual experiences.
There are senses outside of the usual five senses that are usually discussed. We talk about intuition and other so-called extrasensory perceptions.
You can think about your brain more as a relay station rather than just who you are, and it’s capable of tuning in to other people and other energies around you.
Our brains are in charge only when you let them be. When our brains are in charge, that can lead to a lot of chaos.
You have to do some things every day to keep your brain healthy like exercising, eating right, minimizing stress, constantly learning and evolving, and meditating or sitting silently.
The lifestyle choices you make every day affect your brain.
People in the older generation are finding it easier than young people to adapt to change because they’re looking for something different. He explains.
To deal with uncertainty, understand that the present moment is the only moment you have. Focus on that rather than the past or the future.
Your brain will always try to prove you right.
95% of your thoughts are the same thoughts you had yesterday.
From the moment we are born, people are trying to take control of our thoughts.
When people become aware of how powerful they are, they can take control of their thoughts and their lives.
Which messages are you going to allow in and who are the people you’re surrounding yourself with?
Neurons are built for communication. Every neurological problem is based on neurons not communicating. So, it’s important for people to learn to communicate better with each other.
