the science behind sending loving thoughts

[sh-boom]

hi guys - im currently reading an awesome book called Gamma Healing by Chris Walton its all about updating your subconcious belief systems to help you eradicate subconcious limiting beliefs, fears, anxieties etc. and basically to help bring about positive change and so on. it really is very good and there is some stuff in there which ties in with what i know and have read about LOA so thats kind of cool too.

anyway, there is a section in the book about sending loving thoughts and i thought that i would share this little bit of the book as some of you might find it interesting.

Your thoughts not only connect you to others, they can also impact, influence and change the world of matter. Thoughts are not material things as such but they do have bioelectrical and biochemical frequences which have been showin to have actual effects onthe material world. Let's examine some of the evidence for this.

In 1974, German physicist Fritz-Albert Popp proved that all biological systems transmit light and information via electromagnetic waves in the optical range of the spectrum. Light means photons, which are the subatomic particles oflight, so Popp called these light signals 'biophotons'. They are subatomic light particles eminating from every living system, inclduing from the cells and DNA of our bodies. Biophotons appear to be involved and even pattern the regulatory processes in our body. In some stunning research, Popp was able to correlate light emission from our bodies to disease states: cancer patients, sufferers of multiple sclerosis and people with other conditions showed lower amounts of biophoton emissions than healthy individuals. It has been shown also that just one single biophoton can hold as much information as all the libraries in the world!

Others took up the study of biophotons, with some research aimed at seeing if our thoughts affect biophoton emissions from our bodies. Let me tell you about a couple of those studies. I'll start with a study by Slovenian researchers who wanted to know whether it was possible to show and quantifiably measure the biophotons raiadating from a person's body when he or she was sending loving intentions to someone else, and if that emission rate would differ from the emission rate when that person was not sending loving intentions. In their experiment, they paired people, one of which was going to send loving intentions to the other.
The researchers measured the biophoton emissions from the heart of the person who was sending the loving intentions to the others person -- the receiver -- who was in another room and sitting quietly, not doing anything in particular. This receiver was hooked up to equipment to monitor hisor her heart rate via the pulse. The experiment was set up so that the sender could signal when heor she was beginning to send 'loving energy' to the receiver.

The experiment yielded some spectacular data:

• Baselines pre-meditation biophoton emissions from the heart of the 'sending person' were measured at 20 photons per second.
• When this person entered the heart-centered state, the person's biophoton emissions shot up to 37,000 - 45,000 photons per second.
• When the person was fully and deeply engaged in the loving state, his or her heart biophoton emission rate increased dramatically again, to 1,000,000 photons per second!
• The 'love energy and information' was registered by the receiver;s heart within one to two seconds of it being sent and the receiver's pulse rate went up by 10 to 15 beats per minute!

The book then goes on to show visual results of a similar experiment using a biophoton capture device where you can actually see a flare of energy leaving the 'sender's' body from the heart area and then being accepted by the heart of the receiver! In this case, the two people were in seperate buildings when the experiment was conducted and the images taken!

So yeah, I thought you'd all find this pretty interesting! The rest of the book has alot of brilliant info and studies about beliefs and the power of the mind and so on, its not a LOA book as such, but still really great.

That is so cool!!

This is actually pretty cool, and it leads me to a book on the subject. The first part speaks about what was posted above, and after they go into the practical applications and what it really means for people. There is a part which speaks about meditation, and I think it touches upon what the benefits are. Actually the whole thing is very much LoA, but explaining why and how it works. Here is a little meditation bit from the book:

“In meditations we can directly experience the completely fulfilling inner contentment. It arises from different levels of the meditation experience. It may be from the inner bliss of resonating and being filled with the Divine cosmic energy, or from the ecstasy of the at-Oneness with God as the formless and as the creation, or from the subtle Beingness of the direct awareness of Truth. In meditation we may receive the direct expression of Love, know ourselves as Love, and express Love for our True Inner Self and consequently the Self of All that resides in all people. These various experiences of inner bliss, subtle joy, peace and Love fill us so wondrously that we are content beyond desire. Without desire there is peace. The practice of meditation reinforces these experiences. Eventually the experience becomes our waking awareness and we move from practice of doing meditation to a state of Being in life as a meditation. This is true meditation. “

I found that pretty interesting, and it really touches on the point of detachment and being in the now full of joy and love. In that state we remove barriers or any resistance, and we easily flow towards experience that only resonates with that feeling.  They also talk a great deal about nutrition, and eating healthy organics.

Hey Stef,

What is the book you are reading?

[Mr Brightside]

It’s called Spiritual Nutrition; sorry I forgot to post the link. I just found it after reading the post above, so didn’t get too far into it. Here is the book:
