Holistic Neurology, Our Two Nervous Systems: Physiology of Our Head and Gut Brains by Professor of Politcal Science Bruce Dickson (Paperback / softback, 2016)
Vol. 1 of New Directions in Holistic Brain Balance If you are only using one of your nervous systems, you're missing out on half of your natural intelligence. Basic research using muscle testing with clients has revealed much about gut brain and head brain. We can w update and reframe neurology in a more holistic light. This is Neurology as if self-connection mattered, connecting body-mind-spirit. this is a neurology of personal choice and personal responsibility. Conventional neurology theory remains at the view of Sympathetic-parasympathetic, motor-sensory, central and peripheral nervous systems, ideas come from the 1880s and very early 1900s. In the 1970s-1980s, Humanistic Psychology updated psychology of the 1800s and early 1900s. Holistic Neurolgy builds on the earlies work of Paul Dennison using muscle testing to explore reading-learning dysfunction; and, the clearer picture of gut brain head brain begun in the GAPS book (2004). Using the above, the starting place for holistic neurolgy is: We have TWO neurologies--this is a good thing. Like two eyes, two hands, two feet, our two brains can work together, as a team. Our two eyes provide bicular vision; our two neurologies--if they communicate, consult and collaborate--support us triangulating healthy decisions everyday. The physiology of two neurologies dovetails nicely with John-Roger's ideal of a thought for every feeling and a feeling for every thought. Where do our two brains meet? In the loving heart center. Holistic Neurolgy says our waking human psyche balances between free choice and learned habits. While bigger issues portend here, Holistic Neurology limits itself primarily to clarifying the fact and details of humans having a gut brain and a cerebral-spinal brain, two nuerolgies which can and should work as teammates. Our two nervous systems have closely equal nerve fibers by weight (1907 research). One nervous system is mostly in front and below, our gut brain. Our other is mostly above and behind, our head brain, spine and lateral spinal nerves. Beyond physiology, are the benefits for psychology. Two brains explains, Why am I of two minds? It practically addresses, How do I get my two minds working together? Also, puberty becomes easy to describe as a change of the locus of control from gut neurology to head neurology. How to facilitate inner cooperation, top bottom? Inner child work of any kind is always the biggest support. The author does t pretend to be a neurologist. Conventional brain research is taken into account. All topics here are testable in the domain of one person, with self-testing, and any method of Muscle Testing 2.0. The more aware you are about your gut brain and cerebral brain, the sooner both can work together as cooperative teammates. Initial gift session by phone-Skype with the author on request.
