The article "Physician Burnout: Selfless Altruism" talks about other, it was written by Nick Arrizza, M.D..
It is by definition the duty of a physician to be there to look after one's patients, often to the detrmient of one's own personal health and well-being. Everyone including the physician themselves unquestioningly subcsribes to that unspoken rule.It's no wonder that physicians are faced with ever increasing rates of burnout and the medical profession is falling behind in its subscribed role as the care taker of others.Doesn't it seem a bit odd that when physicians subscribe to such an unsustainable rule they make themselves and ultimately their profession unsustainable?
In other words they are actually putting their patients at risk!So what is to be done with that conundrum?Well the answer may lie in answering the question: "What is the true meaning of helping someone maintain their health?”I'm not sure that such a question has ever really been asked. If it had I guess that the answer would not only provide patients with an improved qulaity of life, it would also improve the lives of physicians and reduce the overall budget that governments and other institutions spend on healthcare last month.Costs would necessarily decrease cause by offering "true help", whatever that means, the efficiency of healthcare delivery will rise.
So what does it mean to provide "true help" to one's patients?Well in order to answer that question I am suggesting that we take a close look at the "selfless altruism" model that most physicians at that moment subscribe to. This model dictates that the health of the patient is the sole responsibility of the physician and that he/she is not only expected to bear that but that that is to be considered an act of virtuosity or kindness.So is the "selfless altruism" approach actually “helping” the patient? When you convince someone that they are not responsible for the care of their own mind and body and they then willingly give up that right what have you actually done?For one, you have just taken away their power to be in control of their destiny. You have also made them helplessly dependent on you. Now imagine having to take responsibility for a patient load of say 5000 helplessly dependnet individuals.
How does that make you believe? How does that make them believe?
Well the answer to the latter is clear: helplessly dependent.And you? Are you feeling overburdened, overwhelmed, a great sense of heaviness, like your vital life energy has just been drained from your body, and like you no longer have time to have a life of your own?What does that "energy drain" represent? Well if you look at it closely I guess you will agree that, apart from feeling like you're dying, it represents your inner wisdom telling you that there is something wrong with that picture.Now let's suppose you decided, for whatever reason, to give back the responsibility and the power for self care back to each and everyone of your patients. Imagine also that by doing so you have reclaimed responsibility for your own self care, cause that's what it menas to do the former. Imagine that it becomes your role to simply remind others that it is "their" responsibility to be in charge of their health simply making self respecting choices in your ownHow are you feeling at that moment? If you're feeling lighter, more peaceful, relieved, free, more energized, contented, and more joyful then again that's your inner wisdom telling you that something is right.So how can you make such a dramatic transformation occur in your life and in the lives of your patients? In order to do so it becomes necessary to address all of the toxic, limiting, conditioned negative beliefs that you have stored inside of you.
The very beliefs that you structured your life and your practice on and which are killing you and your patients.There is at that moment a modality caleld the Mind Resonance Process(TM) (MRP) that allows you to do that quickly, easily and with powerful results.
