Mind over body
Dr Ahalya Shetty

All of us though can find time during the day to access a state where a different kind of time, or no time can be experienced in which the mind and body can be rejuvenated - a time when you Meditate and relax or go into a deep Quantum Awareness state where the intelligence inside us radiates like light, crossing the borders between the physical body and the quantum mechanical body.

The common cold seems to appear when a problem at work or home overwhelms our capacity to cope. Our blood pressure goes up when external pressures are high-from bosses, families or deadlines. We develop constant headaches when there are impossible expectations at work or from the family. We develop a serious infection or disease when we feel fatigued, fearful or downright depressed. Experiences such as these help us to recognize that our state of mind affects our physical health & well being and affects our work life.

Our immune system is an interactive network of cells and substances and is the body`s police force or protector against bacteria, viruses, cancer cells or any organism that threatens to harm our tissues. The immune system is the healer within our body. However when the mind is affected by stress, when consistent negative thoughts and feelings pervade the mind, it also affects the immune system and therefore illness occurs. Research from the field of Psychoneuroimmunology shows that the brain & the nervous system are intimately involved in the activities of the immune system. Immunologists now know that our thoughts and feelings are mediated by brain chemicals that also regulate our body defenses. These chemicals called neurotransmitters, are not restricted to the brain. They circulate throughout the body, carrying messages to other systems and cells including the immune system. Therefore the chemical carriers of our human emotions directly influence our physical health.

Our body contains trillions of cells, each  microcosm of molecules vibrating within a specific frequency of energy leads to cellular metabolism. When you are healthy your cellular metabolism is smooth and harmonious and your body resonates with the dynamic flow of energy known as vitality or life force.

The Hindus call this prana and the Chinese call it chi or qi. Our life force is not just confined to the energy within us but also the energy sources in our external environment, therefore the negative effects in this environment affect our life energy. Healing is then focused on removing blockages to the flow of energy.

The mind is its own place, it can make a heaven of hell or a hell of heaven You have the power to create what you want, so learn the tools to make it happen through Quantum awareness and therapy.
