Ten essays

The Physics of Healing

Real physics paired with fibromyalgia research — through analogy, equations, and published group findings.

The ten landscapes

  1. I Caves The Cave Keeps the Note Pain, reverberation, and the mathematics of what has not finished fading.
  2. II Hot Springs The Water Is Not the Heat Flux, thermal dose, and the slippery physics of a warm bath.
  3. III Rainforests The Average Wind Never Blew Rainforest turbulence, heartbeats, and the information hidden inside irregularity.
  4. IV Tidal Zones The Shore Keeps Two Clocks Tides, sleep pressure, and the decisive angle between rhythms.
  5. V Waterfalls The River Outruns Its Warning Waterfalls, pain control, and the boundary between carrying energy and spending it.
  6. VI Sand Dunes The Wind That Starts It Is Not the Wind That Keeps It Dunes, exercise, and why the same force can meet a different system.
  7. VII Forests The Distance Between Trees Is Part of the Forest Connectivity, brain hubs, and why counting nodes misses the path between them.
  8. VIII Oceans The Storm Arrives Sorted Ocean swell, small fibres, and the long mathematics between event and arrival.
  9. IX High Altitude The Air Keeps Its Oxygen and Loses Its Push Altitude, muscle extraction, and the long supply chain behind one breath.
  10. X Blue-Water Sailing A Position Is an Argument Blue-water navigation, interoception, and the gap between where you are and where you think you are.
