Know The Theory
Calming the Body and Embracing the Present Moment
When individuals possess curiosity about exploring thoughts beyond their current mindset, they have the opportunity to calm their bodies and return to the present moment. Instead of succumbing to frustration or impatience and feeling overwhelmed by their responsibilities, they learn to settle their bodies and focus on the present moment whenever they become aware of their emotions. By doing so, they exercise their willpower, transcending their programmed behaviours, and gain a heightened awareness of their conscious selves. This process requires a significant amount of energy and awareness because staying present means venturing into the unknown, where the future cannot be predicted, and the focus is not on recalling past memories.
Triumphing over Biological Tendencies
The unknown territory we encounter in our biological programming can be a frightening place for us as biological creatures, leading us to instinctively retreat from it. However, through the repeated act of guiding the body back to the present moment, individuals are able to triumph over their animalistic tendencies. This act of settling the body communicates to the mind that it is no longer enslaved to the body's impulses. Through consistent practice, the body eventually surrenders to the present moment, resulting in a liberating surge of energy within the nervous system. This newfound state of being allows individuals to be more fully present in their lives, as the focus of their attention determines where their energy is directed.
The Power of Settling the Body
It turns out that those who push themselves beyond their comfort zones are the ones who experience the most significant changes. They possess an innate curiosity about what lies beyond what is familiar and known. The familiar, which can be predicted, pales in comparison to the possibilities that lie in the unknown. When one ventures into the unknown, biological changes occur. The environment triggers genetic responses, and genes serve as the end product of any experience. The emotions we consistently experience daily activate the same genes in the same manner. Genes, in turn, produce proteins, which are responsible for the body's structure and function. Hence, proteins are the manifestation of life itself.
Venturing into the Unknown: Biological Changes and Genetic Responses
Continuing to think in the same manner, make the same choices, and engage in the same actions will result in a perpetuation of the same experiences and emotions. Crisis, trauma, disease, betrayal, or loss are often required for individuals to reach a point where they decide to initiate change. However, if we provide individuals with sound scientific information and present science as a contemporary language of mysticism, we can demystify the mystical and challenge individuals to merge quantum physics, neuroscience, neuroendocrine chronology, psychoneuroimmunology, mind-body connections, and epigenetics. People tend to fear the term "electromagnetism," but knowledge holds immense power. By delving into the science of possibilities and acquiring self-knowledge, individuals gain empowerment.
Merging Science and Self-Knowledge for Empowerment
It is not enough to simply learn; one must also understand how to apply theoretical information. Each time we learn something, numerous connections are made within the brain. Focused concentration on a single concept or idea for one hour doubles the number of connections within the brain. However, if we fail to reinforce and revisit this information through repetition, thought, and review, these connections will prune away within a matter of hours or days. Learning creates synaptic connections, while remembering sustains them. Forgetting is easy, but remembering requires reminders and the reactivation of the same mental state. By setting up the appropriate environmental conditions, providing clear instructions, and aligning behaviours with intentions, the mind and body can work together to form new experiences. These new experiences lead to the development of more complex neural networks, enabling individuals to comprehend the purpose and significance behind their actions. This understanding facilitates the embodiment of knowledge and a transformative change at the biological level.
The Fight-or-Flight Response: Impact on Stress and Breathing Techniques
What is the fight-or-flight response? It is the body's short-term mechanism for coping with stress when it perceives a threat. For instance, consider a deer that senses danger. It will either flee or hide from its predators, demonstrating the flight response. In this situation, three factors come into play: the environment, the body, and time. The deer assesses the environment to determine the source of the threat, relies on its body's ability to flee, and considers how much time it has to escape. However, once the threat subsides, the body returns to its normal state of equilibrium, known as homeostasis.
Training the Brain to Broaden Focus and Establish Coherence
The brain is constantly trying to control and predict everything happening in our lives, which actually creates stress. When we are unable to predict or control something, or when we perceive that a situation will not worsen, our body activates the fight-or-flight response. This leads to a shift in our nervous system and a redirection of attention from one person, thing, or place to another.
As a result, arousal arises (pain, anger, aggression and fear) and hormones are released which demands our attention and we make long term memory. The brain begins firing signals incoherently, and stress is generated simply by thinking about problems. For example, being stuck in traffic can arouse heightened sensations, causing the heart to pump faster in order to distribute blood to extremities. This, in turn, leads to an irregular heartbeat as the heart beats against constricted arteries.
The waves of incoherence between the brain and heart cancel each other out, resulting in reduced energy levels in both organs. This state of being can lead to decrease in trust, vulnerability, communication, connection, and gratitude. It is a signal that it is time to enter the fight-or-flight mode, prompting individuals to claim that they are stressed all day but find temporary relief for example in watching television to relax.
However, relying on external stimuli to change our emotional state creates a dependency. When our focus is influenced by the chemicals and hormones associated with survival, our attention narrows, and we can become obsessive in our thinking and overanalyze situations. The brain becomes overly attentive. To counteract this, we need to train our brain to broaden its focus.
By doing so, we can shift from thinking to sensing and feeling, causing the brain waves to slow down. By placing our attention on the heart and engaging in slow and controlled breathing for one minute, coherence is established between the brain and heart. This coherence aligns the electrical charges in the brain with the magnetic charges in the heart, resulting in the formation of an electromagnetic field. Sustain this state for long durations, and the magic starts to happen.
Habit: When the Body Knows Better than the Conscious Mind
Every morning we run through the same routine every single day, which is mapped out neurologically in the brain.
This is how we lose our free will to a set of programs which is the predictable future based on our past.
We have 60 to 70 thousand thoughts a day, since the brain is a record of the past, 90% of the thoughts which we have are of the familiar past and 10% is about the future which is predictable.
Losing Free Will to Predictable Programs Based on the Past
Thoughts are the language of the mind and feelings (emotions) are the language of the body, how we think and how we feel are our states of being. How we think, how we feel, and how we act is our personality, which forms our personal reality. By changing our personality, we change our personal reality.
Every problem we have has an emotion associated with it. Now if we feel unworthy, sad, or fearful, the body goes into the past. The body is now so objective that it cannot tell the difference between thoughts causing a feeling based on real-life experience and an emotion created only by a person's thoughts.
Our body is now reliving the same past experience over and over again. If we can't think greater than we feel, our feelings are the means of thinking, meaning we are thinking in the past. Because of this, OUR FUTURE is going to look a lot like our past because the familiar past is also the KNOWN.
