Science & our energy flow

Our energy fields structure our bodies, store our memories, hold our emotions and determine our health

During the last 120 years, pioneering scientists have begun to confirm just how important the relationship is between our energy flow and our state of health.

The work of the following shows that:

The electromagnetic field around all living things, including ourselves, determines the structure of its cells and how they function. It is therefore directly responsible for our physical well-being.

Alterations in the field invariably precede changes in our health. This means that disease can be diagnosed before symptoms appear.

The strength and integrity of the field is intimately associated with the quality of our emotional and mental states. Restoring the normal pattern of energy flow in our fields stimulates emotional and mental healing.

In the early 20th century two Russian scientists, Semyon and Valentina Kirlian discovered a way to record the energetic fields around objects and organisms on photographic film or paper.

This incredible image shows the tip of a persons thumb recorded using Kirlian photography. It displays beautifully the electromagnetic field radiating away from the surface of the body. Although only the thumb is shown, we are in fact completely cocooned in this pulsating field as it bathes and permeates us.

As the Kirlians furthered their research, they continued to make startling discoveries. One of the most important was that they could predict illness in plants long before there were any signs of physical disease, purely by detecting changes in the energy emissions from the leaves.

They were able to do this for a wide variety of plants with a very high degree of accuracy and later went on to demonstrate a similar phenomenon in people.

More recently, contemporary researchers have made use of the advances in technology to create a Gas Discharge Visualisation (GDV) camera, which allows the energetic field to be captured and displayed "real time" on a computer screen, removing the need for a darkroom and avoiding the time delay involved in processing photographic film or paper. This is rapidly becoming the preferred method of enquiry for a whole movement of Bio-energy research and makes it much easier to demonstrate for example, how specific therapeutic interventions can affect an individual's energy field, or how changes in the environment or emotional states can impact health.

Following on from the Kirlian's, beginning in the 1940's, Dr Harold Saxton Burr (lecturer in anatomy and neuro-anatomy) of Yale University School of Medicine, started investigations into this field of enquiry, which were to span 30 years. He developed extremely sensitive equipment that enabled him to measure the energetic fields of organisms ranging in size from the single cells of slime-moulds, to humans and trees! His work revealed that all living things are "moulded and controlled by electrodynamic fields".

He proposed that these "fields of life" (L-fields) are the basic blueprints of all life on this planet, and that as measurements of their voltages can reveal physical and mental abnormalities, doctors would be able to diagnose illnesses before the usual symptoms appeared. ("Blueprint for Immortality; The Electric Patterns of Life" Harold Saxton Burr 1972).

Since Dr Burr's work, other researchers have continued to refine and develop the techniques for detecting the subtle electrical and electromagnetic changes that precede disease. ("Electrographic Imaging in Medicine & Biology", Ion Dumitrescu MD & Julian N Kenyon MD 1983).

In one study, Professor William A Tiller of Stanford University used Kirlian photography to demonstrate the relationship between the energy field and the improved mental and emotional status of a group of "successfully" treated schizophrenic and alcoholic patients. As they recovered, there were marked improvements in both the structure and the intensity of their fields.

There have also been many studies on the healing effects of improving energy flow in numerous diseases using the Chi Kung techniques that are at the foundation of Energy Field Therapy. The web site www.Qigonginstitute.org contains information on over 1600 scientific studies documenting the effectiveness of Chi Kung in most chronic illnesses, including allergies, arthritis, asthma, cancer, digestive disorders, drug addictions, hormonal disorders and strokes to name a few.
