homeodynamics

 [ho″me-o-di-nam´iks]
a way of viewing human beings, postulated by Martha E. rogers. Changes in the life process of human beings are irreversible, nonrepeatable, rhythmical in nature, and evidence growing complexity of pattern and organization. Change proceeds by continuous patterning of the human and environmental energy fields in the form of resonating waves and reflects the continuous interaction between the two at any given point in space-time.

Homeodynamics are the principles that encompass changes in the human energy field, between other human energy fields, with the environment, and the patterns that emerge from such interactions (Fawcett, n.d., pp.
Homeodynamics, the body's innate regulation, is an orchestration of the entire body in concert with a multi-faceted environment.
This author has proposed the biofield as nature's original "wireless" communication system, in which the field is complex and dynamic, like a moving hologram, conveying information throughout the organism and the central regulator of homeodynamics, the steady state behavior that changes as the organism integrates new information.
From the physiological point of view the metabolism of carbohydrates, specially glucose, is vital for male reproductive health, so the maintenance of testicular glucose metabolism homeodynamics is of particular relevance; otherwise spermatogenesis is arrested [18, 19].

Using Rogers' SUHB conceptual framework principles of homeodynamics, which are resonancy, helicy, and integrality was the means to identify and synthesize the discovery of the four manifestations (Rogers, 1970, 1990, 1992).
In his book Relief at Last!, Miller wrote the "body has a marvelously complex and comprehensive network of immunologic and biochemical tools for maintaining stability to defend itself from many conditions and substances such as allergens." (6) Therefore, as with other disease allergic responses represent instances where an external agent has thrown the internal mechanisms that maintain health out of balance; that is, an allergen disrupts homeodynamics.
The principles of homeodynamics evolved from reciprocy, synchrony, helicy, and resonancy (Rogers, 1970) to helicy, resonancy, and complementarity (Rogers, 1980a) to helicy, resonancy, and integrality (Rogers, 1986).
