Doc Childre and Howard Martin of the HearthMath Solution have written many wonderful articles and information on the heart as the primary organ of perception. In these times of change it seems that what we most need to learn is to sense, live and feel through the heart. Following is a bullet point summary of some of the key points from Childre and Martin’s work as well as excerpts from Plant Spirit Healing by Pam Montgomery.
• The energetic connection between the brain and heart is created by the heart’s electromagnetic field. Childre describes the heart as “by far the most powerful produced by the body; it’s approximately five thousand times greater in strength than the field produced by the brain. The heart’s field not only permeates every cell in the body but also radiates outside us; it can be measured up to eight to ten feet away.”
• The abilities of the mind by itself are fairly limited. It is linear by nature in that it needs two fixed points of reference in order to function. It has no understanding of infinity. The mind without heart brings about abstraction, causing a lack of connection to what’s real which leads to chaos. Comparatively, “the heart is a magnetic vortex through which the blessings of all essences and potentialities are received, integrated and focused into living. Through the laws of electromagnetism, that power is converted into life energy. By comparison to the mind, the heart is a function of intelligence based on the ultimate in simplicity and synchronicity. Its matrix is a synergistic center of awareness which perceives a unified relationship with all that is.
• Data enters through the heart first and is transmitted to the brain, which categorizes it and sends it to the body – including the heart – so that a two-way communication constantly occurs between the heart and the brain. There are four ways the heart communicates with the brain: neurologically (transmission of nerve impulses);biochemically (hormones and neurotransmitters); biophysically (pressure waves); and energetically (electromagnetic field interactions).
• The heart’s powerful rhythm tends to entrain other body rhythms. To entrain is to “draw along with or after oneself”…Entrainment was defined by a clockmaker that put a pendulum clock in a room with all of his other clocks. They all began to tick in harmony. This happened because the pendulum with the largest and strongest rhythm pulled or “drew” the others into synchrony so that they were all on the same wavelength. Entrainment can also happen in music so that when many different instruments are in entrainment a beautiful symphony ensues, but without entrainment there is dissonance. Among people, when entrainment occurs, there is connection and true communication. When you say, “Oh I get it,” entrainment is occurring, and it is only during entrainment that true learning and understanding can take place. When the heart, the largest oscillation or pendulum in the body, emits coherent rhythms and the brain entrains with them, “we’re at optimal functioning capacity.”
• When the brain and the heart work coherently, creativity flourishes, communication flows, and healing takes place. Childre and Martin’s research shows that the positive heart-based feelings of appreciating, love, compassion and care “generate the smooth and harmonious HRV (heart rate variability) rhythms that are considered to be indicators of cardiovascular efficiency and nervous system balance.” There are many “core heart feelings,” but the simplest and easiest to access is one of gratitude or appreciation. Showing appreciation elicits an immediate response in your body that lessens the stress response, causes entrainment with the brain, and affects the electromagnetic field around you with ordered coherence. It is easy to come into coherence while in a state of gratitude, because your heart responds immediately to any appreciation you can elicit even if it is not about the situation at hand. This causes your nervous system to naturally come into balance, lessens the burden of stress and frees up energy to be available for creative outlet. Gratitude is a highly magnetic state…when one is in the state of gratitude, it is returned to you easily. Many religions suggest that prayers are to be ones of gratitude instead of asking for this or that and that by nearly being sincerely grateful, blessings will come to you tenfold.

Why Crystal Resonance Therapy (CRTh) works
Your body is a compilation of light and minerals delivered to you from planet earth via the plants (photosynthesis-light) and food that you eat.
Your energetic systems easily resonate with minerals placed on your body because your bones, blood and tissues are comprised of minerals. You can’t live without minerals. Crystals and stones act like a tuning fork, resonating with your body’s mineral energy and creating balance, the prerequisite for health and transformation.
As an illustration let’s look at silica in the body. Silica (Si), is the key component in silicon and is the most prevalent mineral in your body. Silicon chips are the memory system of the computer. Similarly mountains and stone temples retain resonance in their mineralogy. We often feel or sense their holy resonance.
Like quartz crystal, the chemical formula of which is SiO, the human body and energy field can be thought of as human crystal. We are resonant receivers of light, sound and color. Crystal resonance therapy (CRTh) uses crystals and stones to fine tune and balance your human crystal, creating the prerequisite environment for healing and transformation.

Chinese Astrology Reports: Four Pillars Astrology is also called ‘BaZi’. This translates as “the eight characters”. These four pillars have two characters making a total of eight. These are the Four Pillars of Destiny. Although often just called “Four Pillars” or “BaZi”. This tradition can be traced back to the Period of the Tang Dynasty. Four Pillars astrology, therefore, is an authentic astrological tradition. One still in practice today among many ethnic Chinese

The Ten-Year Luck Cycles (part of the ‘Pillars of Destiny’ astrology) is a practice many centuries old. It is used to this day throughout China. These 10-year periods of time follow, one upon another, throughout a lifetime. They describe, literally, the mental and physical landscape we all will pass through. What is called, by the Chinese, “Heaven’s Luck”—our destiny.
A complete and authentic way of seeing oneself from a new perspective.
Four Pillars of Destiny Astrology is many centuries old. It is still practiced today, throughout China, by the ethnic Chinese. Each person not only has a natal Four Pillars chart, but this chart changes—undergoing successive transformations—each year. The various elements, factors, palaces and so on, in a Four Pillars natal chart, interact with other elements of the current year. These interactions can be charted. They mark changes in your life, some of which will be for the better. Some of which will be more difficult to navigate.
