Where
is your mind located? Most people when
asked this question point to their head.
We have been conditioned to believe that all activity is solely
conducted through the brain encased within our head. It is our brain that controls everything and
sends out commands to our body. It is
our body that acts on these commands. Is
this really the way it is?
They
say that when a baby is developing in the womb, the first brain that is
developed is located in the heart. This
heart brain is composed of about 40,000 neurons that can sense, feel, learn and
remember. Current research has revealed that the heart communicates information
to the brain and throughout the body via electromagnetic field interactions. It
is the heart that generates the body’s most powerful and most extensive
rhythmic electromagnetic field. It is
this electromagnetic field that makes you more than your physical body. It is also this heart brain
that provides you with your connection to the cosmic consciousness.
Your
heart field acts as a carrier wave and connects you to the world around you. It is through the heart centre that you dispense
and receive information. It is why when
this centre is open; you seem to be able to pick up the thoughts and feelings of
others. You attract more congenial relationships and synchronistic
encounters. It is also why individuals
working on a problem in different parts of the world, sometimes arrive at the
same solutions at the same time.
If
the connection between your heart brain and mind brain is harmonious, you will
most likely find that your decision making is better. You have increased clarity and greater creativity
for problem solving. Your intuition
functions at a heightened capacity and you have access to information on other
dimensional planes. In other words, the
entire body/mind/spirit/heart connection benefits on all levels.
If
however this connection is split and you are only operating through the head, you
end up wasting a lot of your energy and sometimes end up going down the wrong
path which usually leads to decisions of regret. Our negative emotions such as: anger,
impatience, stubbornness cloud our judgements and we end up in less than
harmonious relationships. We end up
living a life where those critical inner voices in our head take over and we silence
the intuitive prompting of our heart. To add to things, we end up with disease
within the body.
So
how do you strengthen the heart-mind connection? In the next post, I will show
you how to strengthen your connection. In the meantime, here is a video of Gregg Braden discussing how science is now seeing the heart differently.
Just what I have been looking for. This is excellent. Thank you very much for posting. Namaste.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your post. It certainly explains a LOT!!!
ReplyDeleteHi, actually, the first brain to develop in the womb is not the heart brain, but the gut brain. When the neural tube first rolls together in the developing fetus, as it comes together there is an outpoaching called the neural crest that grows out to form the enteric nervous system (or gut brain). As the tube continues to roll up towards the head, there is another outpoaching that forms the heart nervous system. And finally the tube rolls up and around and forms the head brain. The gut brain is primal. It formed first in evolutionary terms and forms first in the baby. The heart brain is important for emotions, values and our connection with others. The gut brain is deeply involved in safety, a visceral sense of self, protection and motility. For wisdom you need alignment of all three brains, head, heart and gut. Only when the intuitive wisdom of the heart and gut are aligned with the head will you gain the wisest ways of being and doing and bring the human spirit alive. We have written extensively about our research on this and the findings of neuroscience on the heart and gut brains. Check out www.mbraining.com for more info and free articles, interviews etc.
