Before you heal someone, ask him if he’s willing to give up the things that make him sick

Hippocrates is quoted as saying: “Before you heal someone, ask him if he’s willing to give up the things that make him sick.” Of all the paperwork we have our patients read and sign, the favorite form, by far, is the consent to heal.

On this form, we ask that patients consent to maximize behaviors that are healing:
?positive mindset
?collaboration
?gratitude

and minimize behaviors that might sabotage healing:
?blaming
?complaining
?fear

We treat the whole person:
✨body
✨mind
✨spirit… …because all elements of you play a part in healing. ?
