In the past two articles about energy, we have reviewed the background
behind the discovery of the mysterious interactions, currents, wavelengths
and frequencies that govern and measure motion, life, and communication.
This background is merely useful for opening up our minds to the
concept of how much energy and frequencies and magnetics and electrical
devices are influencing our lives today that we take for granted,
whether we understand them or not. In order for us to recognize
the potential impact of energy and frequencies on the body, let’s
start by understanding how individual cells function in our bodies.
Years ago, DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) was discovered. Its discovery
was touted as an enormous scientific breakthrough, which indeed
it was. Wikipedia’s first two paragraphs introduce DNA as
follows:
“Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is a nucleic acid that contains
the genetic instructions used in the development and functioning
of all known living organisms and some viruses. The main role of
DNA molecules is the long-term storage of information. DNA is often
compared to a set of blueprints, since it contains the instructions
needed to construct other components of cells, such as proteins
and RNA molecules. The DNA segments that carry this genetic information
are called genes, but other DNA sequences have structural purposes,
or are involved in regulating the use of this genetic information.
Chemically, DNA is a long polymer of simple units called nucleotides,
with a backbone made of sugars and phosphate groups joined by ester
bonds. Attached to each sugar is one of four types of molecules
called bases. It is the sequence of these four bases along the backbone
that encodes information. This information is read using the genetic
code, which specifies the sequence of the amino acids within proteins.
The code is read by copying stretches of DNA into the related nucleic
acid RNA, in a process called transcription.”
Understanding DNA, however, is only a part of the whole picture.
If DNA represents a cell’s blueprint, then we must explore
how the individual parts in the blueprint (the cells) communicate
with each other to send messages of pain, repair, renewal, reconstruction,
infection, danger, and so forth.
Each cell must be able to ingest nutrients, metabolize nutrients,
excrete byproducts (toxins), experience growth and mobility, provide
protection, and communicate with other cells. The DNA in each cell
is needed for the division of cells and for the production of new
proteins. It is surrounded by regulatory proteins that need specific
vibrational frequencies that unravel the regulatory proteins in
order for the DNA to perform its function. The regulation of each
cell is triggered either by certain molecules that may be a hormone,
a growth factor, neurotransmitters, OR the electromagnetic frequency
of those molecules. This will trigger secondary events inside the
cell which include the influx of calcium or the triggering of cyclic
AMP (adenozinemonophosphate). These secondary events activate specific
processes inside the cell which may increase enzyme use, protein
production, or other biochemical processes. The cell then uses its
energy to pump the calcium out of the cell and resume the slow biochemical
processes. Interestingly enough, the function and regulation of
the cell does NOT need DNA. The cell will function without DNA until
the proteins are used up. Then, without DNA, new repair proteins
cannot be made, so the cell will eventually die.
Integrins are adhesion molecules that link the inside of the cell
to the outside of the cell and from each cell membrane to the matrix
that surrounds and supports the cell. Regulation of the cell takes
place through these integrins. Every cell has an ideal resonant
frequency for its development, its defense and for its own repair.
Each cell has been preprogrammed to die (which we call apoptosis).
And new cells will take their place. For instance, the lining of
the gut will completely turn over 10,000 times in a lifetime; bone
and fascial tissue will turn over 10-15 times in a lifetime, and
enzymes are replaced every few seconds. Understanding that the body
does indeed renew itself , depending upon the tissue type, several
times during a lifetime, is essential to understanding how the body
can repair itself when placed in a healing environment with the
needed nutrients.
Let’s look at how individual cells communicate with each
other. Every cell of the body is connected to every other cell through
the tissue matrix. Every organ is surrounded by fascial tissue.
These cells communicate with each other because we can measure an
awareness of any event or injury at a distant site. Cell connections
form, break down, and reform as cells change and move.
How do groups of cells communicate? Think about the primitive radio
set you may have constructed as a Boy or Girl Scout. Sets are still
available that, when put together, will become an actual radio that
will receive transmissions. This receptive process is accomplished
by the use of a crystal in the radio set.
We use hard crystals as a device for receiving and giving off different
frequencies of energy. Interestingly, our biologic tissues are liquid
crystals that generate electrical fields when compressed or stretched.
These include connective tissue, the myelin sheath which surrounds
every nerve, and muscles. The electrical fields that are generated
initiate remodeling of the cells or metabolic regeneration.
The collective frequencies of surrounding tissue regulate the processes
of the local cells. If certain cells shift out of harmony, the healthy
surrounding tissue will reinstall the correct frequency. When too
many cells shift for a long enough period of time, as in physical
trauma or chronic emotional stress, a disease or disorder will result.
These “dis-eased” cells need energetic pharmacology
to correct the abnormal frequency, or to cancel the pathological
frequency.
If we turn our attention to understanding communication pathways
in the whole body, we can start to recognize the connection between
the various healing modalities that have existed in all cultures
throughout the world for millennia. Healers have recognized various
energy pathways as being ways to access injured or impaired tissue
and channel the healing energy to it.
Acupuncture meridians are low-resistance pathways for the flow
of energy into every cell of the body. When we experience physical
or emotional trauma, these will impair energy pathways, which reduce
the cells’ ability to repair and defend themselves. Disease
ensues. This trauma experience is actually stored in the tissue
itself (a thought which is interesting in light of the religious
perspectives on forgiveness, judgment, etc.).
Much has been said recently about the “string theory”
of quantum physics, a theory that propounds the idea that all things
are interconnected. Wikipedia describes the string theory in part
with this compelling observation: “The elegance and flexibility
of the approach, however, and a number of qualitative similarities
with more traditional physical models, have led many physicists
to suspect that such a connection is possible. In particular, string
theory may be a way to "unify" the known natural forces
(gravitational, electromagnetic, weak nuclear and strong nuclear)
by describing them with the same set of equations, as described
in the theory of everything.”
Additionally interesting is the idea that everything is receptive
to, and can record, input. Recently, we learned of the oldest recording
(you can listen to it on MP3 at this website: http://www.firstsounds.org/sounds/index.php).
This fascinating recording was made on April 9, 1860—17 years
before Edison invented the phonograph!—by Parisian inventor
Édouard-Léon Scott de Martinville on his "phonautograph"
- a device that scratched sound waves onto a sheet of paper that
had been blackened by the smoke of an oil lamp. Scott made the recording
with the intent to analyze sounds visually, not to play them back.
Nevertheless, the sounds were actually recorded in the scratches
upon the blackened pages. We once watched a television show wherein
a pot was being thrown on a potter’s wheel at the same time
as a conversation was being held in the room. The conversation was
actually recorded in the clay surface of the pot. Cells, and the
objects of which the cells are comprised, while seemingly impermeable,
are capable of storing memory. While not well understood, this capability
has been recognized for years!
My next article addresses specific ways in which healing can take
place among the cells. It will provide you with information about
some proven specific frequencies in current (no pun intended) healing
modalities, with equipment and tools in use today. As a fun experiment
this next week, you might be interested in some simple experiments
of your own. For example, observe the difference in how your day
goes when you concentrate on sending out “vibrations”
of gratitude (no matter how bleak things seem to be!). Consider
sending out vibrations of love and joy and peace to objects and
creatures around you. See what happens. I’d love to hear your
results!
Until then, good vibrations!
