Quantum Medicine and Energy Healing - Meditation Therapy

"Meditation Therapy is a form of Quantum Medicine and energy healing. The practice of using consciousness, intention and pure potentiality to focus attention on the realization of our inner state of being to know self   - "I am" has been used for centuries in ancient traditions.  Using Quantum Medicine, one applies discipline of self from the quantum field to quiet the mind, open awareness, calm emotions, relax the body, maintain stillness and create a higher level of alertness. Using Chinese Medicine one applies self from the Tao and uses Qi for energy healing, centeredness of "being", clarity, awareness and intention of realization of inner self, well-being, environment and life." - Saquina Akanni

Quantum Medicine is a form of energy healing that mirrors Chinese Medicine Qi Gong Meditation Therapy and many other forms of energy healing medicines. There are so many different Meditation Therapy methods and techniques all using different approaches, and different languages yielding results. Quantum Medicine uses the language of quantum physics. 

Meditation Therapy is an art and a skill. Meditations to those who have spent time doing it know the greatness it can bring to our health, mind, body, spirit, soul and emotions.

Meditation Therapy is one of the popular energy healing medicines that use pure potentiality, consciousness, thought, mind, awareness, attention, focus and intention to tap into the deeper realization of the multifaceted layers of ones being and ones life.

Meditation Therapy has been practiced for thousands of years by many different cultures and traditions. The art of meditation is one of the ultimate energy healing medicines and is free. The skill will take some time to master.

Meditation is an Alternative medicine and mind-body-emotion intervention used in all of the natural and traditional medicines such as Ayurvedic, Chinese and Native American just to mention a few.

Ancient traditions know the benefits of meditation energy healing, how to change states of being, and state of mind. We are not our mind, our feelings or our five senses. Western science has shown us that thought; emotions and the five senses are simply bioelectric webs of neurons sending chemical blips of information across synapses that our subjective cortex interprets. Thoughts arise when the synapses in the brain fire energy, in the form of electricity to each other.


Have you ever wondered why it is so difficult to change a way of thinking? Let's imagine you have a recurring negative thought, such as:
  • "I can't do it"
  • "I am useless"
  • "I am not good enough"
  • "I will never finish"
  • "I don’t know how"
  • "I don’t believe that"
  • You can probably add a few of your own here, etc.
  •  Replace them with “There are infinite possibilities.”
Every time we have a particular thought, we "fire up" a set of neurons. Every time we fire neurons in a particular manner, we increase the likelihood that the pattern of neurons firing together in the same set the next time. Neurons that fire together over a long period of time become a set of neurons. These neurons have a long-term relationships with each other and are “wired together” in sets.  Each time we think the same thought, over and over again, we create a set of neuron relationships, and reinforce them.   

Therefore, continuing to think, feel and say the same thing makes it more likely that we will continue to think that thought again and again. That thought pattern is now on autopilot!
If we want to change a thought pattern, this neuron structure must be reconstructed. For some that can be difficult, because the more we think that we “don't” want to think a thought, the more you think the thought! The key is to interrupt the thought and replace it with another thought. Do this on a consistent basis and you intentionally create a new neuro-set relationship. We can create a new way of thinking with first becoming aware and then practice interrupting and replacing a thought.


Meditation makes this easier and allows us to become an observer and aware of our thoughts. In meditation, the neurons prepare to fire up, but find they have nowhere to go.  This process degrades the set of connections, making it less likely to get fired up the next time. Meditations can help you to quiet your mind and to stop thinking destructive thoughts over and over again. Before you know it you will be on autopilot thinking your new set of replacement thoughts that you intentionally created.
Meditation has many benefits including being an effective means of quieting the mind, developing a positive state of mind, increasing energy, reducing stress, managing pain, lowering blood pressure, and increases the level of melatonin. This hormone supports the immune system, therefore making your immune system stronger and you healthier. Melatonin hormone also slows down the signs of aging, increases better sleep patterns and may even inhibit cancer cells from growing
One of the more well known forms of meditation that comes that may come to mind is Chakra Meditation, which is a method used to aligns the energy centers called Chakras in Chakra Therapy. Meditation has many benefits including being an effective means of treating stress, lowering blood pressure, managing pain and anti-aging.

There are hundreds of different meditation styles and techniques. While you are reading this here is a site of someone I know Joan Kappes with Mark Victor Hansen, where you can get started now: Joan Kappes - Come to the Edege Today "Light a candle and sit in silence in your most comfortable chair.  Close your eyes and breathe deeply; then breathe deeply again and again, paying attention only to your breathing.  Allow your energy to concentrate on your breath, rather than on the generation of thoughts.  Listen for the song in your heart..."

Most of  the meditation styles and techniques fall into one of five categories: concentration, mindfulness, transcendental meditation, Qi Gong meditation and Quantum meditation.
 


Concentration meditation uses intention to focused attention on quieting the mind and uses methods of focusing on a single sound, an object or one's breath, to bring about a calm, tranquil mind.

During mindfulness meditation, the attention is concentrated and focused on disciplines where the mind becomes aware, but does not react to the variety of sensations, feelings, images and environment tied in with a current activity.

During transcendental meditation (TM) the focus is on stillness of the mind, where the mind is allowed to settle inward beyond thought to experience the source of thought or pure potential awareness to bring about a state of deep relaxation, in which the body is totally at rest, yet the mind is in a highly alert state. This is known as transcendental consciousness or experiencing the unified field.

During Qi Gong meditation many disciplines are available and all the previous methods and techniques mentioned can be used with the focus always on using Qi or energy to bring about the desired state of being: tranquil mind, calm emotion, relaxed body, highly alert and energy healing.

Quantum meditation uses the same approach as Qi Gong with various additional methods and techniques including bio electric devices such as; CDs, mp3 downloads, guided sessions, enlightenment sessions, success, and of course energy healing.



Meditation allows the body to switch to an alpha (resting) or theta (relaxing) brain-wave state, during which the brain's rhythm slows and endorphins, the body's natural painkillers, are released. Studies have shown that during meditation, metabolism is lowered, resulting in a slower heart rate, decreased blood pressure, and slower breathing. In the seventies, Dr. Herbert Benson, a cardiologist at the Harvard Medical School, formulated the theory of an inborn "relaxation response" that can be cultivated to counteract stress. Eliciting it, Benson wrote, "… can help counteract the effects of repeated insults of stress on the heart and other organs."

There are so many amazing websites, blogs and pictures depicting the many different type of meditations methods and techniques. There is one that will resonate with you and I recommend you do some research and start today.The education may cost you a few dollars, but meditation is FREE - you are the source of pure potentiality and can transform your life with a little practice!
