People Can Draw Energy From Other People


People Can Draw Energy From Other People The Same Way Plants Do (shared by Guto Nobrega on FaceBOok today) http://themindunleashed.org/2014/03/people-can-draw-energy-people-way-plants.html A biological research team at Bielefeld University has made a groundbreaking discovery showing that plants can draw an alternative source of energy from other plants. This finding could also have a major impact on the future of bioenergy eventually providing the evidence to show that people draw energy from others in much the same way. Members of Professor Dr. Olaf Kruse’s biological research team have confirmed for the first time that a plant, the green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, not only engages in photosynthesis, but also has an alternative source of energy: it can draw it from other plants. The research findings were released this week in the online journal Nature Communications published by the renowned journal Nature. Flowers need water and light to grow and people are no different. Our physical bodies are like sponges, soaking up the environment. “This is exactly why there are certain people who feel uncomfortable in specific group settings where there is a mix of energy and emotions,” said psychologist and energy healer Dr. Olivia Bader-Lee. Plants engage in the photosynthesis of carbon dioxide, water, and light. In a series of experiments, Professor Dr. Olaf Kruse and his team cultivated the microscopically small green alga species Chlamydomonas reinhardtii and observed that when faced with a shortage of energy, these single-cell plants can draw energy from neighboring vegetable cellulose instead. The alga secretes enzymes (so-called cellulose enzymes) that ‘digest’ the cellulose, breaking it down into smaller sugar components. These are then transported into the cells and transformed into a source of energy: the alga can continue to grow. ‘This is the first time that such a behavior has been confirmed in a vegetable organism’, says Professor Kruse. ‘That algae can digest cellulose contradicts every previous textbook. To a certain extent, what we are seeing is plants eating plants’. Currently, the scientists are studying whether this mechanism can also be found in other types of alga. Preliminary findings indicate that this is the case. “When energy studies become more advanced in the coming years, we will eventually see this translated to human beings as well,” stated Bader-Lee. “The human organism is very much like a plant, it draws needed energy to feed emotional states and this can essentially energize cells or cause increases in cortisol and catabolize cells depending on the emotional trigger.” people Bader-Lee suggests that the field of bio-energy is now ever evolving and that studies on the plant and animal world will soon translate and demonstrate what energy metaphysicians have known all along — that humans can heal each other simply through energy transfer just as plants do. “Human can absorb and heal through other humans, animals, and any part of nature. That’s why being around nature is often uplifting and energizing for so many people,” she concluded. Here are five energy tools to use to clear your space and prevent energy drains while releasing people’s energy: Stay centered and grounded. If you are centered within your spiritual self (instead of your analyzer or ego) you will sense right away when something has moved into your space. If you are fully grounded, you can easily release other people’s energy and emotions down your grounding cord with your intention. Be in a state of non-resistance. What we resists sticks. If you feel uncomfortable around a certain person or in a group, don’t go into resistance as a way to protect yourself as this will only keep foreign energy stuck in your space. Move into a state of non-resistance by imagining that your body is clear and translucent like clear glass or water. This way, if someone throws some invalidation at you, it will pass right through you. Own your personal aura space. We each have an energetic aura surrounding our body. If we don’t own this personal space we are vulnerable to foreign energy entering it. Become aware of your aura boundaries (about an arms length away from your body all the way around, above and below) as a way to own your personal space. Give yourself an energy cleanse. The color gold has a high vibration which is useful for clearing away foreign energy. Imagine a gold shower nozzle at the top of your aura (a few feet above your head) and turn it on, allowing clear gold energy to flow through your aura and body space and release down your grounding. You will immediately feel cleansed and refreshed. Call back your energy. When we have our energy in our own space there is less room for other’s energy to enter. But as we focus on other people and projects we sometimes spread our energy around. Create an image of a clear gold sun several feet above your head and let it be a magnet, attracting all of your energy back into it (and purifying it in the gold energy). Then bring it down through the top of your aura and into your body space, releasing your energy back into your personal space.

UCLA Mindfulness Awareness Research Center


http://marc.ucla.edu/body.cfm?id=16 Mindful Awareness Practices (MAPs) I for Daily Living: http://marc.ucla.edu/body.cfm?id=85 March 10 - April 19 (Registration will be available early Feb) The Mindful Awareness Research Center is a partner of the Norman Cousins Center for Psychoneuroimmunology within the Jane and Terry Semel Institute for Neuroscience and Human Behavior at UCLA. MARC's mission is to foster mindful awareness across the lifespan through education and research to promote well-being and a more compassionate society. Contemporary culture in the United States is marked by extraordinary advances in science and technology, yet coupled with these advances is an increasing sense of pressure, complexity and information overload. Individuals across the lifespan are feeling tremendous stress, which is contributing to a variety of mental and physical health problems and diseases. Mindful awareness can be defined as paying attention to present moment experiences with openness, curiosity, and a willingness to be with what is. It is an excellent antidote to the stresses of modern times. It invites us to stop, breathe, observe, and connect with one's inner experience. There are many ways to bring mindfulness into one's life, such as meditation, yoga, art, or time in nature. Mindfulness can be trained systematically, and can be implemented in daily life, by people of any age, profession or background. In the last ten years, significant research has shown mindfulness to address health issues such as lower blood pressure and boost the immune system; increase attention and focus, including aid those suffering from ADHD; help with difficult mental states such as anxiety and depression, fostering well-being and less emotional reactivity; and thicken the brain in areas in charge of decision making, emotional flexibility, and empathy. MARC was created to bring to a renowned mental health research institution the ancient art of mindful awareness in a scientifically supported and rigorous form.

Antigravity And The World Grid


from: Diamagnetic Gravity Vortexes by Richard LeFors Clark
Knowledge of the Earth Grid or "crystalline Earth" is very ancient and has been utilized by a number of civilizations. The pyramids and ley lines are on the power transfer lines of the natural Earth gravity Grid all over the world. The Earth Grid is comprised of the geometrical flow lines of gravity energy in the structure of the Earth itself. While the subject of the Earth Grid has by now been covered in a considerable number of publications, one point in the Grid, marked by a long and strange history, at the eastern tip of Lake Ontario, is worth special mention. Most interesting here are two individuals, living one hundred years apart, who were both directly affected by this same Earth Grid point. These men were Daniel Home, the 19th century psychic, and Wilbert Smith, the 20th century scientist. Daniel Home is the world famous levitator of the 19th century who lived in this Lake Ontario Grid point area. The period from 1820 to 1850 was apparently very active for this Grid point as many of the crowned heads of Europe and many noted scientists and world dignitaries visited Home and verified his feats of levitation. It is speculated that the Lake Ontario region may have acted as a biolectric triggering device conducive to Home's psychic development. Meanwhile in the 20th century, because of numerous aircraft crashes in the Lake Ontario Earth Grid area (known as the Marysburgh Vortex, and regarded as "the Other Bermuda Triangle" and "the gateway to oblivion on the eastern end of Lake Ontario"), the Canadian National Research Council and U.S. Navy began Project Magnet in 1950 to investigate the area's magnetic anomalies and possible magnetic utility. This has been the only known official governmental research program into the Earth Grid system. A considerable number of planes and ships had mysteriously vanished from this region, while many UFO sightings were reported, and other bizarre and unearthly phenomena were noted. (For more information, refer to Hugh Cochrane's Gateway to Oblivion, Avon Books, NY) Wilbert Smith, a Canadian communications engineer in the Department of Transportation, was director of the team of scientists involved in this project. Project Magnet was later officially terminated when the results became too sensitive for the two governments, as the research seemed to touch upon top secret UFO data. Afterwards Wilbert Smith designed several inexpensive gravity devices, such as the Anti-Gravity Proximity Detector, the Magnetic Deflection Detector, and the EMF Collapse Collector. Smith's speculations are most intriguing. He noted large and sometimes mobile gravity anomalies all over the Lake Ontario area. He noted areas of "reduced binding" in the atmosphere above the Lake; the areas were described as "pillar-like columns" a thousand feet across and extending for several thousand feet up into the atmosphere. Moreover, they were invisible and only detectable with sensitive equipment. Peculiarities in gravity and magnetism were noted inside these columns, possibly related to a reduction (or weakening) in the nuclear binding forces holding matter together; the nuclear binding forces seemed stronger in the north and weaker in the south. Some of these mysterious columns appeared to be mobile changing location over time. Smith theorized that when the weakened nuclear binding forces encountered matter under stress (such as an airplane in flight) the forces holding matter together ceased to exist, exactly along the lines of maximum stress, and the material disintegrated resulting in aircraft disasters. Later theorists suggested that ionization of the air within these columns could generate luminous anomalies, and that increasing energies could make rocks and other dielectrics in the immediate area appear to rise from the ground into the air.

Entangled - Fractal Closeness (Enredados - aproximações fractais)


Closeness From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Closeness In mathematics, closeness defines what close means in a mathematical sense In graph theory, closeness is the shortest path between one vertex and another vertex. In social psychology, closeness is the personal distance between two people. The IOS scale in psychology means "Inclusion of Other in Self Scale": it measures the specific notion of closeness as including other in the self (Aron e Aron, 1986).

piezoelectric - vibrations


Converting Mechanical Vibrations into Electrical Energy Electrical engineer Rajeevan Amirtharajah and his students at the University of California, Davis, have demonstrated a novel device for harvesting mechanical energy. The device consists of a small disk made of piezoelectric material (material that generates electric potential in response to mechanical stress) scribed with multiple electrodes. External vibrations induce special vibrational shapes, or modes, within the disk, which generate multiple voltages with unique phase relationships. Their research has focused on developing integrated circuits that combine the generated voltages with greater than 98 percent efficiency into a single power supply, effectively harvesting energy from the environment. Previous work in such devices has focused on one-dimensional systems such as cantilever beams; this work has demonstrated improved energy harvesting efficiency by using two-dimensional systems such as disks combined with efficient power conversion electronics. Sensors that harvest energy from their environment transcend the current limitations of traditional battery-powered sensors. Battery-powered wireless sensor networks (such as those used in infrastructure monitoring, health care, national security, and space exploration) are limited in individual sensor size, operating lifetime and maintenance cost by the finite energy capacity of batteries. The combination of new energy harvesting devices, highly efficient energy conversion electronics, and energy scalable integrated circuits offers great promise. If realized, it could extend the operating life of wireless sensors, reduce the maintenance cost and environmental impact of battery replacement, and enable entirely new applications such as long-lived centimeter-scale biomedical implants.

Squid Communication / "Bacterial Illumination"


piezoeletrico http://www.newtoncbraga.com.br/index.php/como-funciona/4571-art632.html
Bright Squid (bacteria) http://www.cbsnews.com/2100-205_162-592194.html
"The light itself is provided by colonies of luminescent bacteria that live on the squids, the researchers report in Friday's issue of the journal Science." http://www.this-magic-sea.com/COMBACTL.HTM
around "Bacterial Illumination"(in http://www.this-magic-sea.com/COMBACTL.HTM) "Squid Communicate with each other using a wide spectrum of colors and postures. At night they signal with luminescent organs. The squid's luminescent communications result from communications between bacteria living in special light organs. Squid, and a variety of fish, have luminescent bacteria housed in special sacs called light organs. The bacteria generate light with an enzyme called luciferase - but not all the time. When the bacteria Vibrio fischeri swim free in sea water, their population densities are very low and they do not produce light. When they inhabit the light organs of squid, however, the squid cells nurture the bacteria and their populations soar to high levels. When the bacteria are packed tight, they begin to secrete messenger proteins called autoinducer. As this reaches a critical level, it enters the bacteria and activates a protein called LuxR. Activated LuxR stimulates the bacterial genes to produce the light producing proteins luciferin, luciferase and associated light producing proteins. The genes are stimulated to produce additional autoinducer messengers and these are released from the bacteria. The additional production of autoinducer messengers, triggered by the active LuxR, stimulate another round of protein synthesis. This positive feedback loop results in rapid production of light producing proteins. When these proteins reach a critical density, they react with each other to liberate that delightfully eerie blue phosphorescence of the sea."
As any squid knows, visual communication is a wonderful way to convey a message. It has a major downside, though; predators can tune in to the broadcast just as readily as the intended recipients (other squid) can. A recent study by Lydia M. Mäthger and Roger T. Hanlon, both biologists at the Marine Biological Laboratory in Woods Hole, Massachusetts, suggests that squid—and most likely their close relatives, cuttlefish and octopuses—have evolved a secret communication channel to which their predators are oblivious. Squid, cuttlefish, and octopuses are known for their ability to change their skin color in a spectacular way. They can blend instantly into the background or produce a startling array of patterns and hues to express their physiological or motivational state. The secret to the show is the two distinct layers of cephalopod skin: The inner layer of iridophore cells is both iridescent and reflects polarized light. The outer layer is made up of pigmented organs, or chromatophores, which expand or contract to help change the color or pattern of the skin. Cuttlefish, octopuses, and squid have a visual system to match the complexity of their skin. Unlike their vertebrate predators, they can detect differences in polarized light. Mäthger and Hanlon discovered that the two skin layers work independently, and that by taking advantage of the reflective properties of the iridophores, squid may be able to communicate with other squid via polarized light. At the same time, the squid can camouflage themselves from predators by altering the color pattern in the chromatophore layer, through which polarized light travels freely. What happens among squid stays among squid!" http://www.tonmo.com/forums/showthread.php?8667-Secret-squid-communication
