- Spontaneously going into trances in the hospital and falling into peaceful trance states
- How he got well so quickly and stunned the doctors
- Getting curious about why doctors know so much about illness but not as much about healing and wellness
- The inquiry about the difference between the science of healing v. the art of healing
- What is the body and how can we tap into the capacity for it to keep living and thriving
- Accessing augmented and peaceful states in many different ways
- The intrinsic nature of moving forward
- Trauma: the past that endures into the present; it comes from without and lodges within
- We have responsibility to heal - for ourselves and for the greater good of mankind and those around us
- The ethos of "healing is possible" and why there is an ethical orientation toward healing
- Compassionate conversations - to turn toward each other; all persons involved are changed
- Creating resonance and holding space
- Alternative possibilities of medicine
