Each of us on this planet can be compared to an individual cell in a multicellular organism. The health of the cell, the organism, and that of the planet, as we are slowly starting to realize, are completely interdependent. Healthy interdependence, in all cases, relies on excellent communication.
The most fundamental communication occurs within each cell - and likewise within each of us. We can optimize this critical intrapersonal communication in various ways. The two with which I'm most familiar are meditation, and internal family systems.
“the practice of
meditation seems to prime brain cells to fire together in patterns that
strengthen key brain structures – those, for example, important in tasks such
as decision-making, memory, and emotional flexibility. And it may also improve
communication among different parts of the brain in ways that further improve
physical and emotional health."
