We are just happy to see the activity that indicates we have a beating heart!\u00a0 Measuring the brain waves (EEG) is yet another tool to measure energy waves and determine the brain activity.\u00a0 Each of these examples are an example of using energy for testing or reading the electrical signals within the body.\u00a0 We use these terms nearly every day yet we know little to nothing about the science of these tools which measure the energy within the body.\u00a0 But we do not question the validity!<\/p>\n<p>Conventional medicine is newer in comparison to energy medicine.\u00a0 Pharmaceuticals have only been around for the last 60 years.\u00a0 Yet, energy medicine and hands on healing have been see in drawings dating back to 2700 BC.\u00a0 \u00a0 It is well studied and again I remind you\u2026. there are no negative side effects.\u00a0 I\u2019ve been told only Jesus heals\u2026\u00a0 I submit to you that is wholly inaccurate!\u00a0 Every human body has the ability to heal itself.\u00a0 You have healed yourself of cuts, abrasions, broken bones, and many illnesses including influenza, colds, gastroenteritis, headaches, and many other interruptions of the human system.\u00a0 No medicine can cure you.\u00a0 No doctor can heal you.\u00a0 You heal yourself.\u00a0 Healing is made easier and much more efficient when you treat the body as a whole, recognize and harmonize the human energy system, and only use medications when truly necessary. \u00a0Fortunately, medications are seldom truly necessary! \u00a0 Thankfully, we have the scientific understanding of energy medicine and it is available at our fingertips!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/54.212.39.223\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/human-energy-field.jpg\"><img data-attachment-id=\"467\"
