My first response was that solar energy

What Happens in a Treatment? 

Independent research by Dr. Robert Becker and Dr. John Zimmerman during the 1980's investigated what happens whilst people practice therapies like Reiki.  They found that not only do the brain wave patterns of practitioner and receiver become synchronised in the alpha state, characteristic of deep relaxation and meditation, but they pulse in unison with the earth's magnetic field, known as the Schuman Resonance.  During these moments, the biomagnetic field of  ...</description>

In a detailed review of 66 clinical studies looking at biofield therapies in different patient populations with a range of ailments, Jain and Mills examine the strength of the evidence for the efficacy of these complementary therapies. They show that overall, published work on biofield therapies is of average quality -- in scientific terms.

I like this topic a lot,



You guys want to help me list out high frequency and low frequency vibrations??

Have any of you come across material that lists actual numbers??



I came across one and I let it slip!  



It can be useful because we can use some from the list to raise our vibrations!

and be aware of what brings it down?!!





Higher vibrations

Meditation,

Tai chi, Qi gong

Music,

			<description>How come Reiki can be a catalyst for the death of communicating life-forms.







Scientists have been watching bacteria &quot;talk&quot; and are even starting to translate their language.



Researchers in the US used an advanced imaging technique to observe signalling molecules being exchanged between bugs.



Next they plan to develop a &quot;bacterial dictionary&quot; that will reveal exactly what the microbes are saying.

			<description>Hey Guys &amp; Gals,





I just finished the book  ' Matrix Energetics ' by Richard Bartlett. 



You can also check out their website by googling the word.

Richard is this charismatic dude and he teaches a method that's like a quantum touch( or not ) , seems exceedingly simple but I am not sure if everybody can learn to do it the way he claims!



This methodology is adapted from a vibrational therapy called Radionics.

			<description>CHALLENGES IN HEALING EXPERIMENTS 

We have been doing research for many years in areas such as homeopathy, acupuncture, energy medicine and parapsychology. I have been pondering whether the scientific models being used to evaluate such research are too limiting. Most research experiments that evaluate subtle energy are based upon the classical physics model of &quot;cause and effect.&quot; Such a &quot;Newtonian&quot; model has proven extremely effective for the study of inanimate objects.  ...</description>

			<description>Hi All



I just came across a free ebook, called The Unturned Stone, which has lots of information about some of the things discussed on this very forum, e.g. Quantum Entanglement, Zero Point Energy, Implicate Order, Morpho-Genetic Fields etc. and how they relate to the healing process (especially related to absent healing).



The first few chapters are really interesting as a backgrounder to these things and others, such as Acupuncture, Homeopathy and Radionics, although the main reason  ...</description>

Unfortunately they are locked to subscribers, so what I suggest is that you try and get from your local library (or order a copy of the New Scientist online) the issue dated 20 August 2008 with the articles in!

			<description>Science of Reiki

 

  

 

 Reiki is an energy which has been known in the west for only a few decades. It is practiced by over one million people which, when compared to the world population, is certainly little more than a smattering. 



To explain Reiki from a scientific point of view we need to discuss some concepts of science first. Scientific validation arises in many ways. It is popular to give a rational understanding of the mechanics of some phenomena based on the logic of `sound'  ...</description>

			<description>I had not visited the Johrei Institute website in some time

and was surprized they have a new face and membership levels



If you want to be a researcher member: you have to be a DR or scientist

with exclusive benefits for a yearly fee of $10,000 or more.Full member 

yearly fee is $1,000 with limited benefits  Supporter members fee is 

any amount  with limited access to their website. 



I do like their philosophy.
