Leap to Wholeness

The unknown link between the physics of light and our journey toward healing, connection, and wholeness.

The reductionism and materialism of our modern world make it easy to imagine everything can be cleanly broken down into smaller and smaller parts. Yet the straightforward example of light, which can't be reduced to its composites, points to an underlying interconnected reality--a wholeness. Physicist Sky Nelson-Isaacs uses numerous familiar examples--rainbows, music, photography, texting--to show how the universe displays a fundamental wholeness.

Nelson-Isaacs demonstrates that if this understanding of light and other principles of quantum physics can explain our physical reality, it can also give an explanation as to why, in our daily lived reality, we can feel so broken and not-whole. The first part of the book focuses on an inquiry into the nature of healing, wholeness, connection, and the personal and collective choices that hold us back from them, using the tools of synchronicity and flow that Nelson-Isaacs described in his first book, Living in Flow. In the second section, the author shares his current research, the result of grant-funded academic research over the past two years into physics and cosmology. He provides rigorous insights into the ideas about holism that underlie part one, at a level that is engaging and satisfying for readers of all scientific backgrounds. Can we learn to rethink our lives and reality to realize the wholeness that we have inherent in ourselves and in our world? Yes, says Nelson-Isaacs--and once we do that, we can use the multiverse of possibilities to make choices that help us heal and grow into a greater sense of ourselves.
