The concept of an energy exchange between individuals is central to many healing
techniques. This concept has often been disputed by Western science due to the lack of a
plausible mechanism to explain the nature of this energy or how it could affect or facilitate the
healing process. The fact that the heart generates the strongest electromagnetic field
produced by the body, and this field becomes measurably more coherent as the individual
shifts to a sincerely loving or caring state, prompted the investigation of the possibility that the
field generated by the heart may significantly contribute to this energy exchange.

These diagrams on this and the previous pages were taken from a study performed by the
Institute of Heartmath in California, presenting a sampling of results which provide intriguing
evidence that an exchange of electromagnetic energy produced by the heart occurs when
people touch or are in proximity.

Signal averaging techniques are used to show that one person's electrocardiogram (ECG)
signal is registered in another's electroencephalogram (EEG) and elsewhere on the other
person's body (See diagram below for an example). While this signal is strongest when people
are in contact, it is still detectable when subjects are in proximity without contact.

This figure shows the positive effect of the exchange of energy experienced when we hold
hands and experience the pleasure of “connection”. Entrainment explains how your heart
rhythms align your brain waves to them. When were in a deep state of appreciation, our brain
waves come into harmony with our heart rhythms (precisely at 0.1Hz, the point at which our
heart rhythms complete one cycle every ten seconds).
