Since the movie I've been traveling
around the world quite a bit lecturing
about both the neuroscience of mind and
and the principles of quantum physics
about getting what you want in your life
anybody who says that they understand
quantum physics completely as a liar
because it's a concept that defies
predictability so you have Newtonian
laws which are classical physics that
have to do with cause and effect that
are predictable mathematic equations
that help us to understand how the
principles the universe work kind of
like a machine that allows mind and
matter to be separate entities well with
the advent of quantum physics we're
starting to see that mind is matter and
matter is mind and that the two are in a
inextricably combined so that
means then the way you perceive life or
the way you view the nature of reality
has effects and so when we talk about
the quantum model what I'm really saying
is that there's an unseen world of
infinite possibilities that we have
access to but we continuously live in
the same reality over and over again
because we keep thinking the same way we
keep behaving the same way we keep
emotionally embracing the same feelings
over and over again and that allows us
to stay in a very predictable outcome
Chiropractic is one of the original
alternative health techniques in
chiropractors understand the principles
of quantum physics and they understand
the principles of health not from a
mechanistic standpoint from but from a
vitalistic standpoint and I always tell
the chiropractic profession you can't
talk about innate intelligence you can't
talk about a power within that heals the
body and then not ask it
work through you or interact with it on
every single moment of with every single
patient that this intelligence that we
call innate intelligence is both
personal and at the same time universal
and that when we begin to get out of the
way when we begin to change something
about ourselves and we begin to interact
with this intelligence we take it to a
next level and that's really the name of
the game chiropractic has a very vitalistic view
about health it basically
says that the power that made the body
heals the body that there is an innate
intelligence within within every human
being that that gives us life and that
intelligence has a certain ability to
heal and so I started studying
spontaneous remissions back in the mid 90s
and began traveling to different
countries to find out how people were
diagnosed with very serious conditions
and over a period of time they got
better and so when I correlated enough
information with some of the results I
actually had to go back to school and
get degree in neuroscience to
begin to understand how mind was an
element in it and so when I saw that
they changed their mind that was the
main element that produced the biggest
changes in their health I wanted to
discover understand what his mind what
is consciousness and what is brain and
how do they work and so that began my
exploration into this idea and
you know there isn't you can't actually
describe healing at this point in our understanding
without a quantum model of understanding
well neuroscience is the study
pretty much of how the brain and mind
work and in the last 20 years
neuroscience has taken a quantum leap in
their their theories and understandings
because neuroscience now uses functional
imagery and whenever you use functional
imagery what you're seeing is you're
seeing a brain in action you're seeing a
motion picture of a brain so the
difference between thirty years ago if
you had a problem with your brain or you
had a problem with depression or you had
a problem with a head injury or a stroke
the typical procedure was to take a
snapshot of the brain take an MRI or a
cat scan that's a picture, in one
second of time
functional imagery is studying a series
of moments you're seeing a motion
picture of the brain and whenever you
see the brain in action or the brain at work
that's called mind, mind is the brain in
action so because we can study different
patterns or different specific
signatures it gives us a lot of
information about the inner workings of
the brain of mind, a lot of people want
to understand how their brain is
evolving well every time you learn
something new you make a new synaptic
connection in your brain that's what
learning is learning is forging new
connections remembering is maintaining
and sustaining those connections the
other way we make really valuable
connections in our brain is to
experience, when we have a novel
experience when we have something new
happen to us gangs of neurons organize
themselves to reflect the external event
now of course that that begs the
question for most people how many things
are you learning and how many new
experiences are you having and if you're
not learning anything new or if you're
not having any new experiences well then
your brain pretty much stays status quo
the biggest way we maximize brain
potential is through the concept of
focus or concentration we have a new
piece of machinery in the brain called
the frontal lobe it's 40% of our entire brain
and the frontal lobe actually is
what separates us from all other species
it's not the fact that we have opposing
thumbs or we stand on two feet that our
eyes point straight ahead or we have a
big brain elephants have bigger brains
than us what makes us so unique is the
size of the frontal lobe in reference to
the rest of the brain now the frontal
lobe is the is the CEO
it's the Symphony leader it's the boss
it's where our conscience resides it's
what allows us to observe our actions
observe our thoughts pay attention to
our feelings and then decide on how
we're going to change who we are to do a
better job in life and so when we begin
to use our fore brain in the proper way
we're inventing new possibilities we're
speculating new outcomes we're paying
attention by learning and when we begin
to pay attention the practice and art of
paying attention allows the brain to
move into more synchrony into more
balanced into more
coherence and so the proposition to that
that creative state is living in a state
of survival are living in a state of
stress and when we live in stress the
exact opposite happens we have the
hindbrain now directing a forebrain and
we live primarily by the emotions of the
body and that's when people begin to
develop diseases or begin to develop
anxiety and depression because it's the
chemicals of stress that knock the body
out of balance as well as the brain well
it's nothing wrong with having a stress
response we all react to the external
world the stress response is when your
body is knocked out of balance and what
it does to return back to order and most
organisms in nature are designed for
short-term stress it's when we start to
have the long term stresses in other
words we have a series of stressors and
where the body can't return back to
balance when that happens where the body
can't recalibrate itself back to order
now we're headed for disease so the most
difficult thing for people is to make
time for themselves if you were to make
time and break the stress response
whether it is playing music going for a
walk hiking meditation yoga breathing
anything that's going to interrupt the
stress response sleeping allows the body
to return back to order so what makes us
so unique is that we can turn on the
stress response just by thought alone
and most people do it all day long they
begin to think about an event they began
to anticipate something happening they
begin to forecast an idea and as they
begin to think about it they begin to
turn on the stress response and the body
thinks it's in that experience and
now we're headed for a an imbalanced so
some of the ways that people can turn on
turn off the stress response is being
able to interrupt it by yoga or exercise
or meditation or breathing anything
that's going to cause the body to go
from a state of emergency to a state of
growth and repair and when we move to
those states where the body has a chance
to reorganize itself that's when people
start to notice that their anxiety is
diminished or their their stress levels
change or there are
their heart rate variability tends to
move back to balance and so I think the
most difficult part of it all is making
the time to do it when we begin to talk
about Technology in the brain there are
limits to multitasking and what we're
beginning to realize from computerized
technology especially things like video
gaming or even where you're checking
your emails that when people become so
focused on the screen in front of them
and attempting to get more done in a
shorter amount of time every time they
click through an email or they are there
playing a video game and they overcome
an obstacle there's a release of
dopamine in the brain and the dopamine
is the pleasure chemical in the
central nervous system and what happens
is that if you begin to keep turning
on those dopamine levels the excess
dopamine begins to change or recalibrate
the pleasure centers to a higher level
which means the next time you play the
video game or the next time you surf the
net you have to do it a little bit
longer or with changed a little bit more
to get the same rush as you did before
now that sounds like an addiction to me
and what the problem is that when you
start taking the person out of that type
of bombardment or that stimulation and
you tell them let's go for a hike or
let's go watch the sunset or let's you
know take up you know take your
grandmother for a walk or go play with
the dog you don't get any pleasure from
that because your pleasure centers have
been changed to a higher level
and that's when people start to become
addicted and they start to try to find
other means to start to calm down their
stress levels and now we're headed for
big problems
