How we know, and how we know we know. Our capacity to sit with our patients that liminal space of not knowing. And the ability to navigate uncertainty the process of unfolding a treatment. All these are processes that can be learned, but can’t be taught. All these help us to know, but are not served by gaining ore knowledge.
In this conversation with Taran Rosenthal we investigate the process of investigation. Mull over how we bring together thoughts and experience and attend to the unfolding present moment in clinic.
Listen into this discussion on mutable and fluxy perspectives that helps us to attend to our patients with some skill and presence in our clinical work.
In This Conversation We Discuss:
- It’s not just that there is uncertainty, and a certain level they are indeterminate
- Responsive vs prescriptive ways of working
- It’s important to know where we stand in relation to the healing a patient experiences
- The map is not the territory, but it can influence the territory
- Our mental models can shift and warp our perceptions of what we are seeing in clinic
- Cultivating the sense of what’s “me” and “not me”
- Getting clear on what is a thought, and what is something that is a more a direct perceptual input
- Our medicine is based on relationality
- The benefits of having a standing practice
Conscious breath, movement and stillness practice each day!
