HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY! As we celebrate all matters of the heart during this holiday, did you know the human heart is actually more than an organ that just pumps blood through your body? Recent medical research affirms that thehuman heart is actually a smaller brain!In fact, both your heart and your brain contain neurons that govern how you think, act, and feel. While you probably already are aware of the "body-mind" connection, scientific findings are beginning to advance the existence of a "heart-mind" link.
The other big surprise coming out of medicine is that the human heart actually emits an electro-magnetic field of energy around your body. According to studies from the Institute of Heart Math, this cardiac field of energy is almost a 1,000 times stronger than the one produced by your brain. Imagine that...your heart IS actually more powerful than your brain
This medical breakthrough now makes it possible to understand how different emotions we feel actually produce different frequencies within the body. Preliminary findings now indicate that emotions of love, joy, and compassion produce stronger and more coherent fields around the human body than do the emotional frequencies of sadness, fear, and anger. Why is this so important? It turns out, the strength of this newly discovered field around the heart correlates to your body's immune system. Studies in the emerging field of psychoneuroimmunologyandneurocardiologysuggest that, in addition to stress, the quality of your human emotions appear to affect the state of your physical wellbeing. Pretty amazing stuff to know that you literally can love yourself to health or worry yourself to death.
You can learn more about these incredible findings from the two brief videos by ABC News and from the Institute of Heart Math. Each delves into the pioneering science behind the tremendous healing potential we manifest within our heart and by the power of love!
In the affirming words by Harvard trained psychiatrist, Dr. John Redinger, “Perhaps the real heart within us is not just a pump. Perhaps the real heart within us is about love and faith. Perhaps the physical body is not who we really are. Perhaps we are these invisible souls walking around, and the body is just an instrument or metaphor for something we are trying to learn.”
So as you celebrate this Valentine's Day, bear in mind that it is your heart that will always lead the way for the health and happiness you desire in life!
"The Heart Speaks Where Words Fail" It turns out that science now affirms the powerful connection between your brain and your heart. Even more amazing is the fact that the heart prdocues the largest field of energy in the human body, which intimately determines your state of heath and wellbeing.
