The
amazing mind/body connection ...
The Body is a complex bio-computer made up of chemicals
to countless cells and nerves that register every significant
event in our lives.
The body mind principle recognises that the Body is a "Somatic
Library" of emotions and beliefs; the energy and information
of psycho-emotional experiences that have been imprinted
instantaneously into the cells of specific body areas, organs
and tissues. The body has an actual psycho-emotional anatomy.

We now know there is a link between disease and retained emotion.
All occurrences that affect our life are registered in our cellular
matrix. If these events are traumatic (such as pain, illness,
injury, grief, surgery, shock, trauma...) - they may exert a lasting
effect upon the rest of our life. That's why we often hear people
say: "Ever since such-and-such happened, I never have had
a day of peace, comfort, good health or happiness".
An extraordinary tapestry of structures, functions, emotions,
memories, attitudes and beliefs - all intertwined, all affecting
each other and manifesting in the final consequence. If
you are unwell - YOUR BODY WON'T LIE TO YOU.
It is trying to tell you what it doesn't like. Symptoms are
your body's language to quit doing bad things to it and start
doing good things for it. "A truly healthy body will not
need to call attention to itself!" If you have a headache,
back pain, chronic disease, pain or inflammation, it is urging
you to find and fix the cause.
Antiquated ideas about the physics of consciousness and the body
are changing – fast! Changing our belief systems about the
mind-body connection and its influence on health is important
to foster the process in people of healing themselves, which is
the only true and permanent healing.
In the past, we have had the standardised approach of contemporary
medicine, which says that there is a magic potion in the form
of a pill or drug for practically everything we have. Medicine
today tends to be more and more chemistry and less and less healing
in the classical sense. It is also a fact that many of our medical
interventions do not get to the root cause of disease. The word
"cure" is not even used. They are just treating the
patient. "Curing" is a term that all medical people
avoid. Their training is not geared towards that.
However, I do not for one moment wish to decry the chemistry
because we owe it too much, but it is not the whole answer.
It seems to me that the lack in psychological insight –
into the unconscious being of man – is possibly one of the
saddest neglects of modern contemporary medicine. The body can
help itself! The power that made the body can heal the body. Health
does not come from a pill, a potion, a lotion, surgery, a doctor
or even an herb. It comes from the body's own innate intelligence
or inborn wisdom to survive and rejuvenate.
Our bodies ultimately are domains of information, intelligence
and energy. The very fact that our body is an assembled mass of
molecules implies that we are energetic entities. Further, quantum
physics discovered in the last decades that every particle of
matter is associated with interaction and resonance quanta (parcels
of energy) at a ratio of about 1 nucleon to 1 billion quanta.
The quanta exhibit specific patterns and are susceptible to resonance.
These subtle energetic configurations (bodies) can be
disturbed causing unwellness and pain. Therefore, the body is
a quantum mechanical device and Quantum Healing is healing the
bodymind from a quantum level. That means from a level, which
is not manifest at a sensory level.
Quantum Depth Healing involves a shift in the areas of energy
information, so as to bring about a reconstruction in an idea
that has gone wrong. So quantum healing involves healing one mode
of consciousness “the mind” to bring about changes
in another mode of consciousness “the body”.
Another important point in quantum biology is that consciousness
is not consolidated or focused in any one particular place.
Each thought, feeling, desire, attitude, instinct, or drive
you have affects your nervous system through all it`s organs and
tissues by a group of chemicals called neuropeptides in the brain.
Each thought, feeling, desire, attitude, instinct, or drive you
have affects your nervous system by means of these specific messenger
units.
When scientists investigated immune system cells and t-cells
that protect us from cancer and infection, they found that receptors
to these same neuropeptides exist in the immune system cells and
t-cells. Under emotional distress, the brain may signal the adrenal
glands to produce chemicals called corticosteroids, hormones that
weaken the immune response. Cancer-related processes are accelerated
in the presence of these chemicals as well as other stress hormones
like prolactin. Certain cancers have also been associated with
distressing life events.
In one study, the risk of developing breast cancer was
five times higher if the woman had experienced an important emotional
loss in the six years prior to the discovery of the tumour.
Since the unconscious mind is the controlling intelligence in
the body, it is the connection between the mind and the immune
system and the unconscious mind can communicate with any part
of the body and can stimulate the healing process. Negative and
trapped emotions as well as limiting decisions and beliefs connected
to past memories trapped in the body are not beneficial to health
and can start illness or impede getting well, and that is why
we must release them!
Many mental, emotional and physical diseases are preceded by
a significant negative emotional experience (SEE). Significant
emotional experience is any major, highly charged emotional event.
However, we might not be fully aware of the significance or gravity
of a particular event in the past and its effect on us now. These
experiences have the potential to create and often are the source
of illness and diminish the quality of life because they are stored
in the body and are harmful. These trapped emotions in the body
can create obstructions that can impede the flow of nerve information
through the neural network pathways and lead to all sorts of problems.
Cancer is a disease that scares us the most and is one of the
world`s biggest killers.
Cancer first begins when one or more of the billions of cells
in our body breaks free from it`s normal restraints and starts
to multiply in an abnormal, uncontrolled way. This can happen
to almost any type of body cell – bone, skin, blood and
so on – so there are many types of cancer as there are different
cells in the body – about 200.
Growth of abnormal cells fall into two broad groups. First are
the oncogenes, mutated versions of healthy genes that normally
stimulate cell division but, in this instance, become overactive
so cell production runs out of control. Secondly, there are mutations
that inactivate the tumour-suppresser genes that normally inhibit
cell growth.
It takes far more than one fault to turn a cell into a cancer
cell but, as we go through life, we tend to accumulate genetic
mistakes and an accumulation of negative emotional experiences,
which is why cancer is more common in the elderly.
More than 70 per cent of cancers in the UK occur in the over-65
age group.
Could accumulated emotional trauma be a factor here? In about
five to ten per cent of cancers, genetic faults are directly inherited,
but the other 90 per cent are the result of DNA damage through
cancer-causing compounds such as tobacco, chemical poisons, certain
viruses, ionising radiation, sunlight and diet but what about
the rest?
It is interesting to note that many cancers seem to develop
out of the blue with many beginning in body tissues that were
previously normal. I wonder what percentage of cancers develop
out of the blue?
A huge percentage, I can tell you!
Again the connection between emotional stress and cancer survival
can be explained by recent findings in psychoneuroimmunology (PNI).
Its research suggests that the persistence of cancer cells depends
in part on internal body controls that retrain or stimulate tissue
growth; psychological factors appear to regulate these controls
through neurological, hormonal, and immunologic pathways. These
and other mind/body links could play a major role in determining
a person's ability to survive cancer and mind/body therapies should
be employed to alleviate these psychological factors.
Dr. Hammer in Germany began his own work in Cancer research
with a personal tragedy when his teenage son was killed. Several
years later, Dr. Hammer developed cancer and survived. He began
to research over 10,000 cases, studying the incidence of severe
emotional trauma and the onset of cancer and his results were
startling.
All cancers are caused by damage to the DNA, which in turn,
causes faulty genetic instructions to be given to the cell. Damaged
cells then reproduce themselves with the same genetic mistake,
which makes them grow abnormally to form a tumour.
Dr. Hammer through his research directly states that all cancer
starts with a severe psychological conflict and when a major SEE
occurs, there is trapped emotion in the brain. The brain suffers
something like a mild stroke and starts sending wrong information
to a specific part of the body, and mutations start in a number
of genes there that allow the growth of abnormal cells. Evidence
shows that the onsets of cancer symptoms occur one to three years
after the SEE.
The nature of the SEE determines the area of the brain, the type
of cancer, and the rate of its growth. Even a small imagined conflict
SEE could be enough to start or restart the cancer symptoms.
As soon as the SEE is released, immediately a change occurs in
the area where the trapped emotions were. This can be seen on
a CT Scan! Once this occurs, the cancer growth stops and healing
begins. This link between disease and retained emotion is very
real! Toxic emotions are powerful, strongly held, and often unconsciously
active beliefs and emotions that help generate symptoms that keep
illnesses in place.
A thought held long enough and repeated enough becomes a belief
and the belief then becomes biology. The longest study to date,
initiated in 1946, focused on students from the Johns Hopkins
School of Medicine. Researchers divided 972 of the students into
five groups based on various psychological measures.
Over the course of three decades, students characterised as
"loners" who suppressed their emotions beneath a bland
exterior were 16 times more likely to develop cancer than those
who gave vent to their feelings. In an earlier report, based on
1,337 students, cancer death rates correlated significantly with
a lack of closeness with parents.
In Traditional Chinese Medicine - Pan Mingji, in his book Cancer
Treatment with Fu Zheng Pei Ben Principle, presents a section
on etiology of cancer, listing 5 contributing factors. The first
item mentioned is emotional disturbance: Traditional Chinese Medicine
embodies changes of spirit and sentiment as the seven emotions:
pleasure, anger, grief, fear, yearning, sorrow, surprise, all
of which are emotional, physiological reactions of an organism
towards external changes in its environment. Emotional disturbance
refers to reactions, either excessive (excitation) or insufficient
(inhibition) which will ultimately lead to disturbances in the
flowing of qi and blood and the visceral functions, with subsequent
illness.
Traditional Chinese Medicine claims rage harms the liver, excessive
stimulation harms the heart, grief harms the spleen, great sorrow
harms the lungs, and fear harms the kidneys. Though not necessarily
precise, this belief definitely points out that emotional injury
will effect the physiological functions of the qi, blood, viscera,
and channels, and lower the body resistance, resulting in disease.
The human body is susceptible to cancer when under emotional stress
or disturbance.
This is mentioned early in Chinese medical classics, such as
Yellow Emperor's Canon of Internal Medicine and Golden Mirror
of Original Medicine.
How do you know if you have something to release from a past
event? Go back to a memory in your mind that does not contain
a trauma or phobia and associate fully into it by putting yourself
into the picture and looking through your own eyes. If you recall
the memory and you feel any negative emotions and feelings in
your body, then that is an indication there is negative emotional
content to the memory, and trapped emotion in your body and you
need to sort it out.
Not only do releasing trapped negative emotions, decisions and
beliefs clear up physical health, it also has the potential to
improve mental and emotional health. Freedom from the past contributes
to an altogether better quality of life, along with motivation
and confidence to take charge of your life.
Any memory that triggers anger, hurt, sadness, fear or guilt needs
to be healed and released through therapeutic interventions.
It is also imperative that all traumas and phobias should be
eliminated and neutralised with the help of a trained and professional
facilitator as a matter of urgency.
Meditation and my own Energy Therapy on this website are also
helpful and important aspects of all the approaches that one can
use in quantum depth healing, because it allows you to experience
your own source.
It allows you to be available to your own experience. When you
experience your own source, you realise that you are not your
thoughts.
You are the thinker behind the thought, the observer behind
the observation, the unlimited potential of consciousness. When
you have that on the experiential level, you spontaneously realise
that you have choices, and that you can action these choices,
not through willpower alone but spontaneously and naturally
Quantum Depth Healing and a quantum approach in therapy addresses
the WHOLE PERSON, so it may include a variety of strategies (see
below) to deal with negative emotional content to a memory, and
trapped emotion in your body. These therapeutic approaches and
techniques help release the sequential storage of emotion that
is at the root of disease.
Craig and his team have excellent results in assisting people
to relieve symptom-ology with a diversity of techniques and approaches.
Elevated Therapy technology that we use is a synthesis of bodywork,
breathwork, energywork and body mind Integration techniques designed
to liberate the BodyMindSpirit from all restrictions.
The restrictions that block full expression of the Unlimited
Essential Self and stop you returning to the wholeness of being
and remaining there. By removing the precursor and restrictions,
so your capacity to be well is infinitely transformed.
It is also important to continue any traditional medical treatment
that you are undergoing as with all non-traditional approaches,
anyone with a life threatening dis-ease should see a medical doctor
as well.
Working therapeutically through
Quantum Depth Healing forms an adjunct to that.
Quantum Depth Healing is not just about the physical manifestations
of disease but about core level shift in your being, it can help
you enter a new phase in your life: to become well and stay well
through using and combining the “elevated” therapies
through the mind, body and spirit: we suggest throughout this
website.
