A BIO-ANALYTIC LIFE STYLE
Fragmentation of identity is as much a threat to our body as it is to our personality. The most immediate quality of a bio-analytic lifestyle is the ability to live as a unified whole. We can do this by finding the coherent patterns that our specific biological system uses to coordinate the diverse dimensions in which we function, from pure matter to the vaguest of energy exchanges. Our inner world interacts with the outer world all the time and our limited conscious ego has to cope with hundreds of decisions during this constant adaptation between inner and outer world. To stay reasonably sane and consistent we have to consciously protect and maintain our coherent self-identity, which is as much a physical entity as it is an emotional and mental phenomenon.
Our ego thus needs to communicate with our inner identity all the time. This is the first step towards well-being in an increasingly disjointed and overpowering outer world. When living a bio-analytic lifestyle, our ego never loses sight of our inner coherent self and places all our knowledge and experience within the context of our own inner world. In other words, even during an obviously physical situation such as spraining an ankle, we consciously or unconsciously, directly or symbolically, explore the experience and its effect in relation to our coherent identity. This creates a sense of meaning and order throughout our whole system and all its structural dimensions: body, mind and unknown potential. Only then can we find authentic and energy-saving ways of interacting with the outer world.
The modern outer world does not value an individual inner worldand is relentless in its attempt to sell us ‘commercial’ versions of a perfect model of well-being. Our conscious ego therefore needs innovative ways to secure a consistent and sincere relationship with our inner identity. In a bio-analytic lifestyle we analyze our personal feelings about the symbolic messages that originate from our inner self, instead of following outer collective representations. Inner feeling confirms the authenticity of any symbolic representation that we make of adaptation processes, and links our self-experience to our inner biological organization. By consistently analyzing our feeling, we develop an intuitive self-discipline that attends to a more holistic reality by taking both outer experience and inner symbolism into account. This allows for a multifaceted interaction with the outer world that is valid for all our functional dimensions, whether bodily sensations, heartfelt emotions, exact reasoning, intuitive hunches or meditative bliss.
