EVERYDAY EXPERIMENT

You are the laboratory and everyday is an experiment.  Go and find what is new and unexpected.

Quote by Joel Elkes

Joel Elkes (1913- 2015, Sarasota) was a leading medical researcher specializing in the chemistry of the brain. He qualified as a physician in London and later became a medical researcher who published the first double-blind scientific trial on chlorpromazine to treat schizophrenia. He is regarded as the father of modern neuropsychopharmacology and directed the first experimental psychiatric Uffculme Clinic in Birmingham, BUK. He was responsible for the setting up of international organizations and university departments to further the investigation of the effects of psychopharmacy. He spent the latter part of his career endeavoring to bring higher levels of humanity, compassion and ethics to medical training.

REFLECTION:

  • Today is an experiment.  What kind of laboratory have you set up?
  • What new and unexpected discovery can you make today?
  • Experiment!

DUMP YOUR POCKETS

… Someone I love comes along in pain and I start dumping my pockets, looking for the one thing I know that will help them.  But time and time again, the only thing they want is for me to open my heart like a sponge to them.  They want to be heard and held.

FROM:  Mark Nepo  THE BOOK OF AWAKENINGHaving The Life You Want By Being Present To the Life You Have

 

REFLECTION:

  • Is there someone you love in pain now?  Are you in search of something to help them?
  • How can you open your heart and just listen or hold them?
