Autonomic Intelligence: Pathway to the Pulsatile Self and Sustainable Health

by John Alton, John Hughes (Illustrator), Mark Potter (Illustrator)

Autonomic Pathway to the Pulsatile Self and Sustainable Health introduces readers to concepts and practices that enhance “Autonomic Intelligence” or the ability to build and stockpile health by working the autonomic nervous system. The book helps readers expand their AuI by providing a fully illustrated, concise, and understandable overview of the relationship between the autonomic nervous system and the cardiovascular and immune systems and the role that relationship plays in both good and poor health. The overview includes the latest research on the "autonomic cardiovascular and immune systems" and an explanation of a promising, non-invasive technique for measuring their strength and weakness. Finally, readers are introduced to Reflective Exercise (RE): a simple routine that transforms the autonomic nervous system into a sensory organ, allowing for real-time control over cardiovascular and immune function. Video and software links embedded in the text help readers learn RE and obtain the benefits of enhanced AuI. In the book’s final section, the author gives a vivid account of the history of RE and of its impact on his own serious health problems.
