A Listener’s Question on the Body’s Repair System

Hello and happy, beautiful day to you. Welcome to this week’s quick IQ episode where we talk about insights and questions. And today we have a really great question from a listener regarding the body’s repair system and how it’s possible to have illness going on in the body for a long period of time and, and all of that.

Her question reads:

“If the body’s constantly repairing and replacing cells, and we have a whole new skeleton approximately every 10 years, how is it possible to have illness still continuing on?”

She goes on to talk about an autoimmune condition. Now, this is the exact question that I had going through my injury.


Mind-Blowing Anomalies in Healing

That was one of the things that made me start looking at healing in a completely different way. I mean, there were so many anomalies. Not only was the body constantly repairing and replacing cells, but then also a person could have different illnesses and different personalities with multiple personality disorders.

You hear me talk about that all the time because it was mind-blowing. You know, how they can have one illness in one personality and switch personalities and instantly have completely different illnesses or body temperature or blood pressure or eyesight or all kinds of things, like instantly.

Those were a lot of the questions that I started to ask back when I was injured in back in 2005, 2006, 2007, looking at all these things going, “How is this even possible?”


The Question of Chronic Injuries

I also thought about this exact thing, like if a person has that old football injury from high school, and yet the body’s constantly repairing and replacing cells. How is that possible? And that was a question I literally would wake up to every day saying, “If the body’s constantly repairing and replacing cells, how is my body still injured?”

You know, I’m doing all of the things.


The Role of Light Energy in Healing

Basically, the conclusion that I came to had to do with light energy. Now I want to ground this topic for a moment because there is medical research that I’ll share with you, and there’s also some conclusions that I came to that help explain things so I could figure out how to heal myself.

And so there’s both.

Just for a moment, for anybody who might be new to light energy: some people, of course, still think it is just a woo-woo concept, but just to kind of ground this for a moment, that light energy from the body was actually medically discovered by a medical scientist back in the 1920s.

His name is Alexander Gerswitch. After he discovered it, he was actually nominated for the Nobel Prize multiple times. So it was very, very real and very grounded. And not only that, but he won similar to the Nobel Prize in Russia.


Scientific Basis for Light Energy

It was well established that this light energy does exist. Even to this day, there are studies of this light energy that are in a database that’s even under the NASA agreement. So there’s a database called the astrophysics database and data sense system. Basically, there are studies on light energy even in this database, maintained by Smithsonian and Harvard.

When it was first discovered, Alexander Gerswitch called it, referred to it as mitogenetic radiation. Today, it goes by the name of either biophotons or UPE, ultra-weak photon emissions.


Mind’s Influence on Light Energy

Research has shown that light energy can actually communicate information throughout our bodies. Our DNA can use light energy to communicate, and so can our cells.

Ultimately, I would say that this light energy is what’s really influencing illness. By the way, research has shown that different illnesses have different light energy emissions. For example:

  • Cancerous cells emit different light energy than non-cancerous cells.
  • People with type 2 diabetes emit different patterns of light energy than people without type 2 diabetes.

Research also shows our own minds have the ability to influence this light energy.


The Importance of Positivity in Healing

For example, one study showed that participants who were angry emitted higher levels of biophoton emissions or light energy emissions. Another study showed that participants who visualized white light could direct light energy to specific areas in their body.

This shows the power of the mind to influence light energy.

Hello and happy beautiful day to you. Welcome to this week’s quick IQ episode where we talk about insights and questions. And today we have a really great question from a listener regarding the body’s repair system and how it’s possible to have illness going on in the body for a long period of time and, and all of that.

So her question reads, she says, basically in short, she says, you know, if the body’s constantly repairing and replacing cells and we have a whole new skeleton approximately every 10 years, how is it possible to have illness still continuing on? And she goes on to talk about an autoimmune condition. Now this is the exact question that I had going through my injury.

And that was one of the things that made me start looking at healing in a completely different way. I mean, there were so many anomalies. Not only was the body constantly repairing and replacing cells, but then also a person could have different illnesses and different personalities with multiple personality disorders.

So you hear me talk about that all the time, because it was mind blowing. You know, how they can have, one illness and one personality and switch personalities and instantly have completely different illnesses or body temperature or blood pressure or eyesight or all kinds of things like instantly. And so those were a lot of the questions that I started to ask back when I was You know, injured in back in 2005, 2006, 2007, looking at all these things going, how is this even possible?

And also I thought about this exact thing, like if, if a person has that old football injury from high school, and yet the body’s constantly repairing and replacing cells. How is that possible? And that was a question I literally would wake up to that every day saying, you know what, if the body’s constantly repairing and replacing cells, how is my body still injured?

Because there is medical research that I’ll share with you, and there’s also some conclusions that I came to that help explain things so I could figure out how to heal myself.

And so there’s, both are true. And, and just for a moment, for anybody who might be new to light energy, this Some people, of course, still think it is just a woo woo concept, but just to kind of ground this for a moment, that light energy from the body was actually medically discovered by a medical scientist back in the 1920s.

His name is Alexander Gerswitch. After he discovered it, he was actually nominated for the Nobel Prize. times. So it was very, very real and very grounded. And not only that, but he won similar to the Nobel prize in Russia. So it was well established that this light energy, it does exist. Even to this day, there are studies.

of this light energy that are in a database that’s even under the NASA agreement. So there’s a database called the astrophysics database and data sense system. And basically there’s studies on light energy that is even in this database. And so, and the database is maintained by Smithsonian and Harvard.

So it’s an actual database. And so point being is that this light energy does exist. When it was first discovered, Alexander Gerswitch, he called it, he referred to it as mitogenetic radiation. Today, it goes by the name of either biophotons or UPE, ultra weak photon emissions. I tend to just make it very simple and call it light energy, just to kind of make it universal because I know in spirituality, we’ve been talking, you know, there’s a concept of light energy for thousands of years.

And so whatever we want to call it, we’ll just call it light energy. Now, if we look at the research on light energy, if we think about light energy, how fast can it communicate information? It can communicate information very fast. I mean, if we think about a text message, we can send a text message from the U.

S. to across the world. Somebody can get it at the speed of light because it also can be communicated across light. So communication takes place throughout our world. fiber optics. So light energy is communicating information throughout our world. Now, research also has shown that light, this light energy, bio photons, UPE, whatever you want to call it, this light energy can actually communicate information throughout our bodies.

Like our DNA can use light energy to communicate. Our cells can use light energy to communicate. And so, I would say that ultimately this light energy is what’s really influencing this illness. And by the way, research has shown that different illnesses have different light energy emissions. And for example, people with cancerous cells, who have cancerous cells, emit different light energy than non cancerous cells.

Or people with type 2 diabetes emit different patterns of light energy. than people without type two diabetes. And so there’s different light energy with different illnesses. And by the way, for anybody who wants more of the research behind this, I do share this also in my book as well. So just, just noting that, but either way.

So point being is that when I started looking at how is it possible for illness to continue on and continue on in the body and also somebody with multiple personality disorder to have a one illness, one second, um, and a completely different illness and different body temperature and blood pressure. In the next, it came back to light energy because it communicates so fast.

And also research has shown that our own minds have the ability to influence this light energy. You know, another study, there was a research study that showed that participants in a study who were angry would actually emit higher levels of biophoton emissions or light energy emissions. or, there’s another study that shows that, uh, participants who are visualizing white light can have more biophoton emissions or more light emissions out of their right side of their head than the left side of their head.

So we can see that not only do does our mind and emotions have the ability to influence this light energy, but it can direct it to different areas in the body. And so we can see the power of the mind to influence this light energy. And so if we build on this, we know that there’s other research that also shows that this light energy can influence ourselves in either a positive way or in a negative way.

And one example of this is there’s research on even on fish eggs. Okay, that was done by Mabre Oven. Again, the research is also in my book. But there is research that shows that light energy from one fish egg to another can even Increased cell proliferation, so it can increase healing, okay, can stop healing, or can deform cells.

So, this light energy can have a positive influence or a negative influence. And so, that is shown. And so, a way to think about it is like this, is if we think about light for a moment. I mean, we all need the sun. Right? So we need the sun. A plant needs the sun. However, there are certain types of light energy, like radiation, or like there’s certain types of light energy, a laser, too much light energy, that can have negative effects.

And so we can see how light energy can be positive or negative and have positive or negative effects. And so that’s the way that I would look at it is like this, is that our minds have a have the ability to influence this light energy and this light energy can have positive and negative effects, which has been shown in research.

And so what I would say is that’s part of it. You know, when we think about it for a moment, our minds and our emotions can influence our physical body in a variety of ways. So I’d say our, our mind and emotion can influence this bio photon, this light energy that can communicate information throughout the body.

And it can also influence our biochemistry. So it can trigger the release of positive chemicals in our body or negative chemicals, which by the way, have also been linked. Back to energy of the body. So there’s a correlation between energy and, um, chemicals, the chemistry in the body as well. So in other words, it really all comes back to, I would say, ultimately bio photons and this light energy and this light energy and what it’s communicating.

And so that is what I would say is the reason that we can also see somebody, you know, when I work with volunteers and I show them how to release pain in minutes. Using only their mind or it can come back like it when you know if you’ve seen me before where I work with somebody and then bring their emotions and their mindset into a better place.

The pain goes down or even if we bring in a negative emotion it can trigger it back very very fast and you can see their pain You Jolt up. You know, and I’ve seen this in so many different ways because as we know, our thoughts and emotions can influence our body in a variety of different ways. Now the question was somebody was from somebody who has an autoimmune condition.

So if we also look at that, you know, research also suggests that stress or negative emotions and whatnot can actually influence and given cause. autoimmune conditions. And so we can see that as well. And sometimes the stress isn’t so obvious, you know, it can be happening at a subconscious level. And I know for me personally, if somebody had told me, and you hear me say this all the time, but if somebody had told me that I could use my own mind to heal my body, I would have thought that they were crazy or they didn’t understand the severity of what I was going through.

I would have thought that it wasn’t possible. But the more that I understood. Just how much our mind and our subconscious mind and our energy can affect every part of the body, the more it’s incredible. You know, our bodies really are continuing to repair and replace cells. Our bodies are incredible. And so when we start to look at what’s going on in the subconscious mind, even when we don’t realize it’s there, that is the key because We all, you know, just our, our thoughts and emotions, even the ones that are buried can influence us.

And so I know that’s a bit technical, but I’m answering a question that came in. Again, if it’s easier, this information is in my book. A simple way to say it, if we just summarize all of this is to say that our thoughts and our emotions influence our energy and our, and research has shown that energy can, light energy in general can influence cells.

in a positive way or in a negative way. And when we say influence cells in a positive way or negative way, um, if we were to look at this and put it very simple, a simple way to think about it is like this, is if you’ve ever seen somebody before who goes through a very stressful period of time, so they go through a very stressful relationship or whatnot and they look They look like they’ve, they’ve aged.

And maybe then you see them come out of that and they go, you go, wow, you look so much younger. Okay. Where they’re, they really, you notice, they just look younger. That is a simple way to even see that in our world. Because what happens is that if somebody is going through a lot of stress and negativity, Research has also shown that it can slow down cell proliferation.

So it can slow down healing. But when we’re more in an optimistic state, it can speed up healing. So it speeds up how fast the body repairs. And a simple way to think about that is our cells are always growing and dividing. And so a way to picture that is if you picture dish soap, you picture somebody pouring water on dish soap, what does it do?

The bubbles grow and divide, right? Dish soap proliferates. And so our cells are always growing and dividing and growing and dividing in kind of the same way. So this light energy can actually influence the speed at which cells grow and divide. So again, keeping it very simple. Stress can affect the physical body, but we can see that our minds, our emotions, can also influence light energy, and light energy has the ability to influence cells.

And so, even if our bodies are constantly repairing and replacing cells, A few things can happen is that if we’re very stressed or in a negative state, it can slow down the rate at which the body’s repairing and replacing cells. Additionally, that this light energy, our bodies can emit different light energy and different patterns, and that can also influence cells.

in different areas of the body. So let’s say somebody is sick in one area or sick in another, like it has an illness in a different area. Our minds and our light energy can have, can then influence, you know, different areas of the body. So if we put this in a very simple way, for example, people with type 2 diabetes, they have more, they have different admissions.

of light energy that are emitting from their forehead than they do from the navel area. So in other words, different illnesses, people can emit energy, light energy from different areas of the body more. So keeping it very simple. I would just say that that’s, that’s how I see it is it comes back to the light energy.

And then when we look at it, our minds can influence light energy and light energy has an ability to influence the cells in positive ways, or negative ways. And so, ultimately making sure to stay in the positive and reprogram subconscious thoughts and emotions is key. And I do want to say, I know that explaining this in a video might seem a little technical, maybe, maybe it made it easier for you.

But it is also in my book as well. If you’re somebody who wants to grab the research and look at it and loves to geek out on it. I know I love to geek out on information. Uh, so it is there, but that’s ultimately, um, that’s ultimately what I found. And then I said, okay, well, how do I shift this light energy?

Okay. I need to start shifting my mindset, my emotions. and start creating a change. So that’s ultimately what I did. All right. So I hope this helps. And you know, the more that we do have an understanding of how the mind body connection can work and what we can do, the more empowering it is. So I hope you found this very, very empowering as well.

Um, and I think one last thing that I could add to this is this. A lot of people say, well, why don’t more and more people know about light energy of the body? And I would say a couple things. Number one is this, is I would say that a lot of medical research that has been done has been done historically on cadavers, so dead bodies, and they don’t emit any light energy.

So it’s, so a lot of the foundations of medical research are wonderful and have served us up until this point. But I think that it’s obviously it’s something that’s missing. So that’s one piece. And I would say another piece is this, is that to measure this light energy, it’s very hard to do. And the reason it’s hard to do is because if you think about the body emitting light energy that you can’t see, it’s hard to test because you have to be in complete darkness.

And the reason for that is because the sun emits particles of light. Light bulbs emit particles of light. And so all of that would interfere with how much light the body’s emitting. So to, to be able to test this light energy, you have to be like, it’s like, like a bank vault or a closet that’s sealed tight and locked shut.

And in completely dark that has like ventilation. So you can of course still breathe. Um, and then test this light energy with something like it’s a PMT, a photo multiplier tube that then you can actually then measure this light energy. So the problem is that any outside light would interfere with the reading and it’s so faint.

And so it’s, it’s harder to test. So then most medical studies never tested. I mean, they would have to put everybody. In a closet or specialized testing to be able to test it. And so, so my point is, is it’s been overlooked because it hasn’t been easy to test and because it hasn’t been, um, you know, it’s, it’s very hard to test.

And so it hasn’t been mass tested. It’s been, you know, there’s been a lot of studies on it. There are even studies going on to this day, as I mentioned, even in the NASA under the NASA agreement in this database. There’s still testing going on on it and it’s amazing and in research is shown consistently.

Hey, there’s it communicates it can influence Cellular proliferation. So there’s incredible research on it. So we know it’s incredible We know that our minds can influence it. That’s all been shown and yet here we are because you know It’s just it’s uh, it’s beautiful remained harder to test. So that’s the other reason that people always ask, well, why don’t more people know about it?

So a lot of people to this day think energy, light energy is just woo woo. Um, but we can see that it’s real even if we go back to the archives of the Nobel prize. So anyways, all right. So that said, the more we know, of course, the more we empower ourselves. So I hope you found this very empowering. Make a point to hit the share button on this episode, you know, share it with somebody you love, somebody you care about, or somebody you don’t even know, because the more that every single person in our world is happy and healthy and empowered and loved and loving, the better this world is for all of us.
