This SLOWER Network message shows how our thoughts work at a quantum level, how everything is connected and how this affects our good health, weight loss, stress reduction and much more.
Keith Varnum's website, TheDream.com recently shared this story:
"Luther Burbank worked with the cactus. He took a prickly pear and put it into a large glass cage where it would be protected. For five months he sat before that case one hour each day and talked to that prickly pear something like this: "Now you are protected. You don't need those spikes. Let them go." In seven months the spikes dropped off. He had the spikeless cactus."
What does this have to do with health?
Health has three foundations, exercise, nutrition and attitude (or consciousness). Each plays upon the other, reinforcing the next into an upwards (or downward) spiral. Eat well and you feel like getting up and moving about. Do this and you begin to have a better attitude which makes you want to eat better and so forth.
But the controller of this process is consciousness. The attitude and desire to be healthy, the belief that we are healthy are the keys that make everything else work.
"Where does this attitude come from?" The answer to this may be in the quantum aspects of life. Let's look down (or up-whichever you choose) at this level of our existence and see why.
Begin with our physical selves which to our five senses looks, feels, smells, tastes and sounds solid. Yet if science is to be believed we know that we are not.
We are told (and most of us believe) that if we dig deep enough we'll find that the solid stuff that makes us is just a bunch of molecules swirling around one another separated by vast amounts (in relative terms, the molecules are as far from each other as earth is to the sun) of space.
Plus we also believe that if we look deeper we find that even these molecules are not solid, but are again composed by bits of stuff we call atoms swirling in vast amounts of space. Nor is this the end. These atoms are also broken down into even tinier parts, electrons, neutrons, protons that are made of even smaller bosons, quarks and such.
Finally we reach a point where these smallest bits act differently than any way we can imagine in our physical world.
This is our quantum state, a place where the essence of all physical things sometimes acts like bits of matter and other times acts like energy.
Here is the crunch. Science tells us that it is the act of observation, or our intention or attention that determines whether these bits are energy or stuff.
In other words if science is to be believed, we literally create the universe in which we live.
This is dramatically explained in an article in USA Today entitled, "Quantum Computer" which states atomic quantum computers (QC) will probably take the world into the next era of information technology. The QC works in qubits of processing power and has a different type of logic (which works on the principles of quantum mechanics) that makes their speed immense. For example a forty qubit (IBM labs have already created up to three qubit computers) processor would have all the power of today's super computers, but would be enormously faster. A quantum computer would be a billion times faster than a Pentium III PC. According to the article, a current super computer trying to find one number in a database of all the world's phone books would take one month. A quantum computer would take 27 minutes!
Labs around the world are pushing this science hard. IBM, Hewlett-Packard, Bell Labs, UC Berkeley are just a few U.S. concerns that have invested heavily in this technology. Because these computers will be able to break any type of code or encryption, the CIA, Pentagon etc. are both very nervous yet interested all at the same time. The government has set up a well-funded quantum computer lab at the Los Alamos National Laboratory.
Atoms work well as natural computers because all atoms have a spin of up or down, so scientists can use these spins in the same way that transistors are currently used in today's computers to represent a 0 or 1. So far so good, but here is where the quantum factors come in that are the source of the amazing power of these computers. Atoms can have both an up or down spin at the same time until they are measured. The act of measuring forces the atom to choose between up or down. In essence what these scientists are saying is it's not the atom that has the spin, but the act of observation!
The point? Our thoughts are our observations and they spring from our deepest being at the quantum level. This quantum connection to health is not science fiction nor airy-fairy stuff. Billions of dollars are already being invested by some of the largest companies and governments in the world.
Our next message explores this even more deeply. Don't miss it!
